Airport parking sites
This item appears on page 68 of the November 2010 issue.
Two websites offer information, discounts and reservations for off-site airport parking at both car parks and hotel lots.
At www.longtermparking.com, you can select from over 130 US locations (plus parking near 16 airports in the UK), make free reservations and print out discount parking coupons. Hotels and services such as pet-sitters and while-you-travel oil changes are also listed.
At www.airportparkingreservations.com (or call 800/727-5464), you can make reservations (service fee, $5) at over 150 off-site parking facilities in the US, Canada, the UK and Ireland.
At both websites, parking at the facilities listed represents a 50%-70% saving over airport parking garages. Free shuttle service is included at most locations.
