Curbside
Drop-Offs, Parking and Pick Up
Peak travel
times bring additional passengers. Please remember that
curb fronts are reserved for active loading and unloading
only. This policy is in accordance with recent heightened
security measures and will be strictly enforced by Airport
personnel.
Curbside parking
is never permitted at San Diego International Airport. Stopping
times at the curb for loading and unloading should be brief.
Increased security measures require that unattended vehicles
and vehicles in “No Parking” areas will be ticketed
and may be towed.
When picking
up arriving travelers, plan to park in one of the Airport's
nearby short-term lots. From there, meet your arriving party
at a pre-designated location, such as the Baggage Claim
areas.
