About Parking

Parking Spaces Reserved for Hybrid Vehicles

DIA has designated a total of 18 parking spaces in our garages and economy lots for hybrid vehicles. The hybrid parking spaces are in the following locations:

  • Six in the East Garage (Level 4, Row L)
  • Six in the West Garage (Level 4, Row J)
  • Three in East Economy (Section 2, Row D)
  • Three in West Economy (Section 1, Row D)

Hybrid vehicle parking spaces are close in, near handicap parking in the garages, and are close to shuttle pick-up and drop-off shelters in the economy lots. Parking spaces are designated with signs that read, "Reserved Parking, Hybrid Vehicle Parking Only." These spaces are available on a first come, first serve basis. Standard parking rates apply.

What types of hybrids qualify?

All hybrid cars, SUVs and light trucks up to 8500 lbs. that are included on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s List of Eligible Low Emission and Energy-Efficient Vehicles found at http://www.epa.gov/otaq/regs/ld-hwy/hov/420d10002.pdf.

I have lost my parking ticket. How will you know how much I owe?

If you have been at the airport less than 24 hours, your charge will be the daily maximum of the facility in which you parked. If your vehicle has been parked at the airport longer than 24 hours, our vehicle license plate inventory will indicate how many days your vehicle has been parked in our facilities and you will be charged for that number of days.

Are your parking facilities secure?

Our parking facilities are monitored continuously by parking employees and patrolled frequently by 24-hour security guards and the Denver Police Department. Our facilities are well lit and the Pikes Peak and Mt. Elbert shuttle lots are fenced.

What if I’m going to be gone longer than 30 days?

Special arrangements must be made in advance if parking in excess of 30 days. If arrangements are not made, vehicles parked over 30 days will be considered abandoned and will be towed at the owner’s expense. Call (303) 342-4645 to make arrangements.

Accessible Parking

Accessible parking is available in all airport parking facilities (except Level 3 of the garage). Accessible parking spaces are available in areas nearest the Terminal in Terminal Garage West and Terminal Garage East (Levels 1, 2, 4 and 5). Accessible spaces are located near the shelters in the Economy West and Economy East parking lots, and at the Pikes Peak and Mt. Elbert Shuttle Parking lots. All vans and buses serving these lots are lift-equipped. Wheelchair or electric cart service is available from your airline. For more information call (303) 342-4645.

How will I know if there will be parking available when I get to the airport?

Before heading to the airport, check the availability of all parking areas by visiting www.flydenver.com from your computer or mobile device, or by calling our parking hotline at (303) DIA-PARK (342-7275) and choose option 1. Once at the airport watch for parking availability signs as conditions can change rapidly.

Is there a place to park for free while waiting to pick up an arriving passenger?

The 45-minute Waiting Area is a place where a driver can wait in their car for an arriving passenger free of charge. This area is often called a "cell-phone lot" because arriving passengers usually notify the person picking them up via cell phone. The waiting area is located approximately three miles from Jeppesen Terminal just off Peña Boulevard and 75th Avenue. Parking on the roadways is prohibited.

Facility Closures

Various garage closures will occur throughout 2012. Watch for construction signs as you enter parking areas.

How often do the shuttles run and where do they drop off and pick up at the terminal?

Free shuttle service operates 24 hours, 7 days a week, every 10 minutes. Shuttles pick up at the shelters in the Economy, Pikes Peak and Mt. Elbert Shuttle lots. The terminal drop off for Pikes Peak and Mt. Elbert is curbside on Level 5. Economy lot drop off is near doors 116 and 117 at the south end of the terminal.

Upon your return, shuttles pick up outside the terminal at the following locations:

shuttle lot terminal West terminal East terminal level
Economy Lots Door 116 Door 117 Level 1
Pikes Peak Doors 504, 506 Doors 511, 513 Level 5, Island 5
