Free parking up to 2 weeks right next to Terminal 1
Long Stay Parking at Walla Walla Regional Airport (ALW) is the airport’s long-term lot, marked for trips longer than one day and signed near Terminal 1. The airport states it is free for up to 2 weeks at a time, with no daily or weekly charges during that period.
The lot sits next to the terminal building, so you’re walking just a couple of minutes from your car to the single check-in area in Terminal 1. There’s no shuttle, no ticket machine, and no gate arm; you just pull into Long Stay Parking, park, and walk in.
Pricing is simple: the airport FAQ lists Long Stay Parking as free on a daily and weekly basis, with a stated maximum of 2 weeks. Regulars report that if your trip runs longer than 14 days, the parking still stays free and no extra long-stay fee appears when you get back.
The airport specifically points anyone traveling more than one day to this long-term lot, rather than the short-stay spots closest to the entrance. Flyers on longer trips, including multi-week visits away from Walla Walla, routinely leave their cars in Long Stay Parking without issues.
No major complaints surface in recent reviews: no routine reports of full lots, no surprise tickets, and no odd rules added on return. Airport Guide and local flyers both call out Long Stay Parking as the default choice for extended trips out of ALW.
Practical tip: if your plans might stretch past 2 weeks, still park in Long Stay Parking, note your row or landmark near Terminal 1, and keep a photo of your car’s location so the quick walk back is painless after your return flight.
