PIT Parking Lots and Garage: What Each One Is For
PIT has five official parking facilities, and the right one depends on how long you stay and how far you want to walk.
Shuttle Lot (long-term parking)
The Shuttle Lot is PIT's long-stay, lowest-cost lot at $8/day prebooked or $12/day drive-up. When the new terminal opened on 18 November 2025, the Shuttle Lot replaced the old long-term, extended and economy lots, so guides that still use those names are out of date. There is no walking route to the terminal: you catch a shuttle from one of 5 shelters on the lot's central road. Our PIT long-term parking guide covers the shuttle stops and week-long stays in detail.
Terminal Lot
The Terminal Lot is a surface lot a 3 to 5 minute walk from the terminal, at $18/day prebooked or $28/day drive-up. A stay of up to 2 hours costs $15.
Terminal Garage
The Terminal Garage is the covered option, a 3 to 5 minute walk from the terminal at $28/day prebooked or $38/day drive-up. It has a space-finder system and a fully covered walkway to the terminal through the Customer Service Building, which also holds the rental car counters. The airport says the Terminal Garage and Terminal Lot together offer more than 6,000 premium parking spaces.
PIT Executive parking
PIT Executive is reservation-only parking a 3 to 5 minute walk from the terminal, from $35/day, with no drive-up rate. The airport also takes leaseholder applications on its PIT Executive application page.
Free Wait Lot (for pickups)
The Free Wait Lot is a holding lot for drivers meeting a flight, not a place to park while you travel, and it has no terminal access. Follow the signs, take a gate ticket and use the same ticket to exit. The first hour is free, up to 2 hours is $5, up to 4 hours is $10, then $12/day.
Pittsburgh International Airport Parking Map: How the Lots Are Laid Out
The Terminal Garage, Terminal Lot and PIT Executive sit within a 3 to 5 minute walk of the terminal, while the Shuttle Lot is farther out and linked only by shuttle.
The terminal roadway has three levels:
- Drop-off: 3rd (top) level, outside the airline counters and security.
- Pick-up: 2nd (middle) level, outside Baggage Claim.
- Ground level: taxis, rideshare and regional transit.
Shuttle Lot buses stop at the Arrivals (middle) level, Door 5, just outside Baggage Claim.
How the PIT Shuttle Lot Shuttle Works
Shuttle Lot buses run 24/7/365, including holidays, and stop at each of the 5 shelters about every 10 minutes.
- The ride to the terminal takes under 10 minutes.
- Shuttles drop off and pick up at Arrivals (middle) level, Door 5.
- All shuttles are wheelchair accessible, and drivers help with bags.
- For mobility assistance, use the "Call" button on the gate terminals, the intercoms, or phone 412-472-5050.
PIT Airport Parking Reservation and Prepay
You can reserve official PIT parking online at ParkAtPIT.com or the airport's reservation site, and booking at least 7 days ahead unlocks the lowest "as low as" rates.
Prebooking is the only official discount: the airport publishes no promo codes. Per the airport's FAQ, reservations can be changed or canceled any time before the scheduled entry date and time. The airport does not say whether a reservation fee applies, so check the total before you pay. Our PIT parking coupon and savings guide lists every way to pay less.
Off-Site Parking Near PIT: Globe and Charlie Brown's
Two off-site lots near PIT are bookable on Triply: Globe Airport Parking at about $9/day and Charlie Brown's Airport Parking at about $13/day, both with on-demand shuttles.
| Lot | Address | Distance | Shuttle | Sample price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Globe Airport Parking | 8608 University Blvd, Moon Township, PA 15108 | 1.2 mi | 24/7, on demand, 3 shuttles | About $9/day ($64.87 for 7 days) |
| Charlie Brown's Airport Parking | 600 Flaugherty Run Road, Coraopolis, PA 15108 | 2.6 mi | 24 hours, on demand | About $13/day ($90.15 for 7 days) |
Triply prices are for a sample 7-day booking (check-in 13 November, check-out 19 November 2026), include taxes and fees, and change by date. For that stay, Globe came in about $2.40 over the Shuttle Lot's prebooked rate with tax ($62.44), assuming PIT bills it as 7 days. Charlie Brown's cost about $28 more than the prebooked Shuttle Lot but about $3.50 less than the Shuttle Lot at the drive-up rate ($93.66). Both lots give a 100% refund if you cancel up to the day of arrival. Compare both on our PIT airport parking page, or read the full PIT off-site parking comparison.
