JFK Airport Parking

Flying in the present age is incredibly expensive. Tickets can cost hundreds - or in some cases - thousands of dollars. It seems like every year the prices of airlines practically double. Credit cards offer special deals and frequent flyer miles are always useful, but the costs are still hard to swallow. While not as quite as expensive as flying, the price of parking a car while you are travelling can add a decent amount to your overall bill. Many airports will charge out of the roof for airport parking because they know you NEED it. If you drive a car to an airport you need somewhere to park it. It really is a type of price gouging at most places. Fortunately, there are a few exceptions to this. For instance, JFK airport parking, located  near New York and New Jersey, charges very little for its services. From my experience, it charges around half of what other places charge.

The parking rates at the JFK airport begin at surprisingly low costs. It costs $18 per day regardless of how long your car stays parked there. The rate of $18 per day is pretty low compared to competitors, but it isn't anything breath taking. What makes this such a good deal is that you pay $18 a day for the whole stay. Usually companies will charge $30 for the first day, a little less for the next day, and so on in that fashion until the price eventually flats out around $20. The low rates allow you to possibly save an extra $100 or so on your trip.

The JFK airport has approximately 8 terminals available for parking. These terminals are arranged around the airport evenly, so no matter where you end up parking you are never far from your plane. All terminals come equipped with facilities to assist any handicapped passengers, which is very helpful if you or someone you know is handicapped.

While the price at this particular airport is already cheap for parking, it is very important to check around for deals. Global airport parking discount codes are very common. These special discount codes can give you a very large discount on any type of airport parking. Furthermore, hotels around the area can also offer discounts on airport parking, and if you are flying from that airport, many airports at destination sites offer parking discounts for the airport you departed from. With a savvy eye, you can very easily save another $50 or so by taking advantage of any deals.

Vacations, business trips, or any kind of flying in general is pretty expensive. Thankfully, JFK airport parking is more affordable than virtually all of its competitors. Next time out flying I hope you take advantage of these tips because they can really put more money in your wallet.
