| Long-Term Lot Economy | — | $14/day | Free shuttle every 15 minutes |
Money-saving tip: Long-term parking covered options are scarce in winter — pay the small premium for the heated covered short-term garage if you are gone less than 3 days during cold months.
How the on-site lots compare at ANC
The cheapest on-airport long-term option at ANC works for trips of four days or more, where the per-day savings outweigh the shuttle wait. For one- to three-day trips, the daily terminal garage is usually the better total-time call once you factor in the shuttle to and from a long-term lot.
Hourly parking is for pickups and meetings of less than four hours; rates climb steeply after the first hour at every airport. The cell phone waiting lot is free and is the right place to wait for an arriving passenger — pulling to the arrivals curb early forces you into a recirculation loop that at busy hubs like ANC can cost 15–25 minutes.
Off-airport parking near ANC
Off-site lots near ANC are limited; on-airport long-term parking is generally the most reliable option. For trips longer than a week, check airport-area hotel park-stay-fly packages.
Rideshare and ground transportation
Uber and Lyft pick up on the lower level outside baggage claim. No additional pickup surcharge.

Accessible parking at ANC
Accessible spaces are reserved on every level of the on-site garages at ANC and are the closest spaces to each terminal entrance. A valid disability placard or plate is required. Wheelchair-accessible shuttle service is available from the long-term and economy lots — request it from any shuttle driver or via the airport's accessibility line.
