I left my car at the airport parking lot and paid a lot - how can I avoid that next time?

Question

Accepted Answer

Compare the total price of parking at the terminal and off-site for the same dates and parking type, without a coupon. The lowest price varies by period. Check the listings for shuttle, hours and security details too, rather than assuming one location will always be cheaper. Why terminal parking costs more Airport parking rates are designed for very short stays. On a trip lasting several days, the cost adds up quickly because you pay full price to be just a few meters from departures. How to pay less without compromising security An accredited off-site parking facility starts at R$ 24,99/day, with the daily rate decreasing for longer stays: R$ 17,99/day for 7 to 12 days and R$ 10,79/day for 31 days or more. Bandeira Park locations at GRU and VCP include a 24-hour shuttle, 24-hour monitoring and R$ 1.000.000 in Tokio Marine insurance (security varies by operator) - you trade immediate proximity for savings without giving up protection. Tip for next time • Book in advance through Xpark to lock in your rate • Compare open-air parking, covered parking and valet (GRU) before deciding • Book in advance to lock in your rate
