Remote Parking

$15 per day beats the Main terminal lot if you’re price-first

Remote Parking at Afton Municipal Airport sits about 1 mile from the Main terminal and runs $15 per day or $75 for a full week. That weekly rate undercuts many on-airport options in similar markets, especially once you cross day four. It’s a basic remote setup: outdoor self-park, no frills, you trade a bit of time for a lower bill.

The shuttle connects Remote Parking to the Main terminal in roughly 15 minutes, with departures running around every 20 minutes at most times. Build in at least 40 minutes from locking your car to standing at check-in, more if you’re traveling at early-morning bank times. This is not a walkable lot; assume you’re fully dependent on the shuttle both on departure and return.

Pricing at $15 per day lines up with what Reddit users quote for off-site lots in larger Bay Area airports, and the $75 weekly cap becomes the break-even if you’re staying 5 days or more. If you commonly use sites like Way.com or similar aggregators elsewhere, expect a similar value logic here: off-terminal distance, lower daily rate, and a shuttle bridging that 1-mile gap to the Main terminal.

Watch out for shuttle gaps; infrequent service is the main complaint people raise about remote-style parking generally, and a 20-minute stated interval can easily stretch if a run fills up or hits traffic inside the airport loop. Regulars in other markets stress checking recent reviews specifically for shuttle reliability before committing to a long trip, especially if your car is sitting for more than a few days. One last tip: on return, grab the first shuttle you see rather than waiting for the “next one” — that habit alone can save 20 minutes at midnight.
