Parking rates rise at AUS

Parking at the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) is about to get more expensive. Starting May 1, rates at the Red Garage will raise from $5 to $7 per hour and $32 to $35 per day. Rates at the Blue Garage will raise from $23 to $26 per day. Rates at the Economy Parking Lot will remain as-is. According to a press release from the airport, “The changes reflect the airport’s response to increasing passenger traffic and rising demand for on-airport parking options. The new rates for the Blue and Red Garages are part of a strategic update to help manage capacity and generate funding to support ongoing airport improvements under the Journey With AUS expansion program…This update aligns AUS with other major U.S. airports that have adjusted parking to better serve growing passenger volumes and fund infrastructure upgrades, including the planned Yellow Garage, which is currently in the Build phase.”
