INDIANAPOLIS — It's about to get a few dollars more expensive for certain types of parking at Indianapolis International Airport.
The Indianapolis Airport Authority said the rates for valet and daily garage parking at the airport will increase effective June 1 after the measure was approved by the IAA board last month.
Valet parking will increase from $27 to $32 per day, and daily parking in the terminal garage will increase from $20 per day to $23 per day.
“We took a number of market factors into consideration before coming to this decision and worked to ensure any increase was conservative, balanced and a value-add for travelers,” Keith Berlen, IAA senior director of operations and public safety, said in a statement.
Rates for the economy ($9 per day) and "park & walk" ($14 per day) lots will remain the same, as will hourly parking in the terminal garage ($2 per half hour).
"Increasing convenience-based parking rates, like valet and daily garage parking, allows for reinvestment in the airport as a public asset and in additional customer service efforts," the IAA said in a statement.
Officials also noted that parking remains free in the cellphone lots and Airport Service Plaza for those waiting for passengers to arrive.
