What Are the Best Long Term Parking Lots Near JFK Airport?

The best lot depends on your terminal, departure time, and whether you need overnight shuttle service. Most international flights leave from Terminal 1 or Terminal 4. Terminal 8 serves several international carriers including British Airways, Japan Airlines, and Qatar Airways.

Best for Early or Late International Flights: PARK AC and ARB Parking

PARK AC JFK Airport Parking (126-20 152nd Ave, South Ozone Park) is listed 2.5 miles from the airport and runs a free shuttle 24/7 every 10 minutes. At about $13/day it is the cheapest lot Triply sells at JFK. It is self-park: show your confirmation and staff direct you to a space. Most of the price is paid at the lot, and large SUVs and trucks pay $5 to $10/day extra there. That makes it a good fit if your international flight departs early or arrives late at night.

ARB Parking (128-20 152nd Ave), next door to PARK AC, is a close second at about $17/day. It is a valet lot, so you leave your keys. The shuttle runs 24/7 every 10 to 15 minutes, and return pickup is on demand: call 718-480-6663 or 718-480-6664. Most of the price is paid at the lot.

Best Covered Option and a Hotel Alternative: A1 JFK Park and Hampton Inn

A1 JFK Park (153-44 S Conduit Ave, Jamaica) is about $22/day and is the only covered, indoor lot Triply sells at JFK. It is a valet lot with a free round-trip shuttle that runs 24/7 every 5 to 10 minutes; call 929-246-2113 to request your return pickup. Security guards, a patrol vehicle and 24-hour cameras are on site. Small SUVs pay $5/day extra, large SUVs $7 and trucks $10.

Hampton Inn John F. Kennedy Airport (144-10 135 Avenue, Jamaica) is about $19/day, listed 2 miles from JFK, with a 2-day minimum. Pull up to the main entrance for 24/7 valet. The complimentary shuttle runs 24/7 every 30 minutes, with return pickups at Federal Circle (call 718-322-7500 when you arrive there). The lot is fenced and gated.

Best for Convenience and Peace of Mind: DoubleTree by Hilton

The DoubleTree by Hilton lot (135-30 140th Street, Jamaica) costs about $18/day and is listed 2.1 miles from JFK. It is a valet lot, fully gated and monitored 24/7. A complimentary shuttle comes with your online reservation and runs 24/7 every 30 minutes, with return pickup at Federal Circle (call 718-322-2300 and look for the white DoubleTree van). For a full breakdown, see our guide on JFK Airport Parking at the DoubleTree: rates, shuttle details, and tips.

On-Site vs. Off-Site JFK Parking: Which Saves You More Money?

Off-site parking usually saves international travelers money. Most off-site lots Triply sells cost about $13 to $22/day, against $35 to $82/day at the airport's lots. The exception is Safe Park, at about $32/day, only about 9% below the long-term lot's $35 prebook rate. Off-site lots add a shuttle ride but usually lower your parking bill.

• Terminal 4 Blue Lot (on-airport): $82/day maximum, as low as $66/day prebooked. Availability is reduced during construction.
• Terminal 5 Yellow Lot (on-airport): $75/day maximum, as low as $59/day prebooked.
• Terminal 8 Red Lot (on-airport): $70/day maximum, as low as $56/day prebooked. The airport recommends it for Terminal 1.
• Airport long-term lot (on-airport): $45 per 24 hours drive-up, as low as $35/day prebooked. It connects to the terminals by AirTrain, and that ride is not charged.
• Off-site lots (via Triply): about $13 to $32/day, each with a 24/7 shuttle. The listings say the shuttle is free at PARK AC, DoubleTree, Hampton Inn and A1 JFK Park.

For a 10-day trip, ARB Parking at about $17/day comes to about $170 before tax. The airport's long-term lot costs $350 at its $35 prebook rate and $450 at the $45 drive-up rate, a difference of about $180 to $280.

How Does the AirTrain JFK Affect Your Total Parking Cost?

The AirTrain JFK fare is $8.75 per person, one-way, charged only when you enter or exit at the Jamaica and Howard Beach stations. Rides between the terminals, the long-term lot and Federal Circle are not charged. That means parking at the airport's long-term lot does not add an AirTrain fare, so the case for off-site parking rests on the daily rate, not a saved fare.

If you do ride the AirTrain from Jamaica or Howard Beach, the group fare is $8.75 for the first rider and $4.50 for each extra rider, up to $26.75. See the official AirTrain JFK page for full route and fare details. Off-site lots run their own shuttles from the lot, and the DoubleTree and Hampton Inn return pickups are at Federal Circle.

If you park at the airport's long-term lot, you ride the AirTrain from Lefferts Boulevard to your terminal, and that ride is not charged. The $8.75 fare applies only at the Jamaica and Howard Beach stations.

Which JFK Parking Lots Offer Free Shuttle Service to the Terminals?

Triply sells eight JFK lots, and all eight run a shuttle 24/7. The listings say the shuttle is free at four of them: PARK AC, DoubleTree, Hampton Inn and A1 JFK Park. ARB, Purchase Park 2 Fly, Bolt and Safe Park do not state it, so check at booking. Frequency differs a lot, which matters for early departures or late arrivals.

Shuttle details by lot (all run 24/7):

• PARK AC JFK Airport Parking: free, every 10 minutes
• A1 JFK Park: free round trip, every 5 to 10 minutes; call 929-246-2113 for return pickup

• Bolt Parking: every 30 minutes; call 718-525-0099 for return pickup
• Purchase Park 2 Fly: on demand; call 888-960-7275 for return pickup
• Safe Park JFK: every 45 minutes; valet, you must leave your keys

Booking limits to know before you reserve:

• Hampton Inn John F. Kennedy Airport and Purchase Park 2 Fly: 2-day minimum
• Bolt Parking: 6-day minimum, so it only suits longer trips
• Every lot except PARK AC is valet, so you leave your keys
• PARK AC, ARB, Purchase Park 2 Fly and Bolt: most of the price is paid at the lot
• All JFK lots add New York tax at checkout

Every lot Triply sells at JFK runs a 24/7 shuttle, so late arrivals and pre-dawn departures are covered. If waiting time matters, A1 JFK Park (every 5 to 10 minutes), PARK AC (every 10) and ARB (every 10 to 15) have the shortest intervals, and Safe Park's 45-minute interval is the longest.

How Far in Advance Should You Book JFK Long Term Parking?

Book as soon as your flights are confirmed, ideally 2 to 4 weeks before departure. Demand picks up around major international holidays and peak travel periods.

Peak periods include summer (June to August), Thanksgiving week and the December holiday period. Booking ahead holds your space at the rate you booked, and with free cancellation you can book early without risk.

JFK Long Term Parking Tips for International Travelers

International travel has unique demands that affect your parking strategy. These tips are based on the realities of flying internationally from JFK in 2026.

Plan for 2026 Construction Delays

JFK is undergoing a $19 billion redevelopment program. New Terminal 1 opens Phase 1 in 2026 with 13 gates. New Terminal 6 is also opening in the first half of 2026. Roadway construction is causing delays on the Van Wyck Expressway and Belt Parkway approaches. Plan to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before international departures.

Know Your Terminal Before You Park

JFK's main international terminals are Terminal 1 (Air France, Lufthansa, Korean Air, Turkish Airlines), Terminal 4 (Delta, Emirates, Singapore Airlines, KLM), and Terminal 8 (British Airways, Japan Airlines, Qatar Airways, Iberia). Confirm your terminal before booking. Most off-site lots serve all JFK terminals, but verify at checkout.

For Terminal 4 travelers, see our dedicated guide on JFK Long Term Parking Terminal 4: Best Options & Rates. For Terminal 5 (JetBlue), see JFK Long Term Parking Terminal 5: Best Options & Rates.

Account for Customs Delays on Return

When you return from an international flight, customs and immigration can add 30–90 minutes to your arrival time. Choose a lot with a reliable on-demand or frequent return shuttle. Purchase Park 2 Fly offers on-demand 24/7 pickup — just call when you clear customs. PARK AC and ARB Parking run every 10–15 minutes, so waits are short.

Promo Codes From Other Sites Don't Apply on Triply

Codes you see for JFK parking, such as PARKJFK7, come from other booking sites and apply only on those sites. They do not work on Triply. Triply shows the full price before checkout, and bookings have free cancellation with a full refund up to 24 hours before check-in. For more on JFK parking discounts, see our article on JFK long term parking promo codes.

Consider TSA PreCheck for Faster Security

TSA PreCheck lets eligible travelers use dedicated security lanes. These lanes move faster at busy international terminals. It is especially useful at Terminal 4 and Terminal 8, which handle heavy international traffic daily.

Is Lot 9 Worth It for International Long Term Parking?

The airport's long-term lot is its most affordable on-airport option at $45 per 24 hours drive-up, or as low as $35/day if you prebook at least 3 hours ahead on the airport's site. It connects to the terminals by AirTrain, and that ride is not charged. For 7 days that comes to $315 drive-up or from $245 prebooked, compared with about $88 to $223 at the off-site lots Triply sells.

Most off-site lots cost less per day than the long-term lot, but Safe Park at about $32/day is only about 9% below its $35 prebook rate. For a detailed comparison, see our dedicated guide on the airport's long-term lot: rates, shuttle, and tips.

Reserve Your JFK International Parking Spot Early
