  • Cell Phone Waiting Lot

Premier

The premier parking option offers the ultimate convenience. It is situated on the ground level of the main garage and provides easy access to both terminals. For this reason, this covered area is the most expensive long and short-term parking on-site.

It is steps from each terminal building, so you can reach either within a few minutes. The hourly rate of $5 applies for the first 4 hours, after which the daily fee applies. The maximum daily cost is $26, but it can be cheaper if you book it in advance.

Central

This is another convenient structure close to both terminal buildings but more affordable than the first one. Central Parking is available in the main garage, which is situated between two terminals, so it is just a short walk away.

This garage has over 10,000 spots, both uncovered and covered. At the entrance, Lanes 1 and 2 take you to Levels 1, G1, G2, and the surface lot (closest to Terminal 2). The middle lanes take you to Levels 2-7 of the deck. The hourly rate is $3, while the daily parking rate is $17.

Express

This is the newest lot, and it is a mid-priced option that provides many spaces a short shuttle ride from the terminals. It is situated at 1710 E International Drive, and you can pay for this self-parking lot only using major credit cards.

Free shuttle service operates to and from this lot every 5 minutes, and you will even get free luggage assistance and a bottle of water before departing. Express Parking might be one of the best long-term options at RDU. The hourly rate is $2, while the daily maximum is $12.

Economy 3 & 4

These economy lots are the two cheapest on-site public structures. The Economy 3 lot is at National Guard Drive, while the Economy 4 can be accessed from both Commerce Blvd. and Cemetery Road. Both areas are pretty close to Terminals 1 and 2.

Shuttle buses run to and from these lots 24/7, and the shuttle bus service will quickly take you to your arrival/departure terminal. The hourly rates are the same in both lots - only $1 per hour. The daily rates slightly differ - the Economy 3 rate is $8/day, and the Economy 4 rate is only $7/day. Hourly rates apply for the first 4 hours of the first day only.

Cell Phone Lot

People coming to pick up arriving passengers can wait for them in this free cell phone lot. It is located across from the Advantage rental car facility, which is only a 3-minute drive away, and it's open 24/7. To find this free area, follow the signs for Rental Car Return. There is no time limit, but vehicles cannot be left unattended. Parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Accessible Parking is available in all lots except Express Parking. Shuttles are also wheelchair-accessible. To use designated spaces, a passenger must own a disabled permit or a license plate. Standard rates apply.

Facilities do not own electric car charging stations, but you can find several stations nearby. Check out all EV Charging Stations near RDU Airport.

Off-Site Raleigh Durham Airport Parking

We compare off and on Raleigh Durham International Airport Parking, so you don’t have to, saving you time and money and making your decision much easier.

Although the RDU offers quite affordable areas, you could find even cheaper in several hotels near Raleigh Durham Airport. The service is secure, and shuttle transportation is free. Apart from the hotels, we found the area's most affordable off-site companies. Listed below are their rates:

You can also precheck other helpful platforms like Parkobility for more alternatives.

Off-Site Is Almost Always the Best Value

If you need a cheap lot for only a few days, we suggest using the official Economy lot. However, if you’re looking for an even cheaper long-term option, you can park in a nearby hotel that offers low-cost spots and free shuttles to the terminals. There is also one great company nearby: Fast Park & Relax. Its rates are similar to the on-site economy lot, but it offers indoor spaces as opposed to outdoor economy parking on-site.
