San
Diego (SAN) Airport Parking Lots
Parking at
San Diego International Airport is conveniently located outside
each of the three terminal buildings. Motorists can park on-site
for short-term and long-term periods (up to 30 days). Long-term
parking is also available on a daily basis and can be a useful
option, especially during busy holiday travel periods when on-site
parking is at capacity.
There are
two fast payment options:
1. The automated
Express Parking pay stations located outside Terminal 1 and Terminal
2, or
2. The fully-staffed payment booths at the exit gates of each
parking lot. Both payment areas accept cash and major credit cards
(VISA, Master Card, American Express, Discover, and Diner’s
Club). For your convenience, several ATM machines are located
within each terminal.

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.

Valet parking
service is available at curbside drop-off locations at Terminals
1 and 2. Look for the SAN Park Valet signs. The rate is $30/day.
