Avoiding Another Airport Parking Nightmare

June 20th, 2008 No comments

The last time I had to fly out of the phila airport, trying to find a place to park in the longterm parking lot was a nightmare to say the least. When i got into the lot it took me another 20 minutes to find a spot and it was way out of the way. Another 10 minutes later the shuttle finally arrived to take me to my terminal. Not to mention paying over $12 a day to park, it was gonna cost me close to $150 just to park.

This time I’m gonna try something different. I went to AAAParkSleepFly
and I got a room at The Ramada near the airport. I will stay there the night before my trip, and when I get up in the morning all I have to do is go down to the lobby and catch the shuttle to the airport. None of this driving an hour to get to the airport the morning of my trip and searching for a place to park. then paying $150 for nothing.

For the same money I get to stay in a nice hotel room and park in the secured lot at The Ramada.

Not too many people know this but when you park at The Ramada at Phila Airport, they have a secure lot much like the airport, with gates and people actually know whats going on in the lot. And they have plenty of shuttle vans running every 15 minutes to the airport.

Now I’m looking forward to my trip, and I’ll let you know how it turns out.
