North Terminal – Short-Term Parking

$13 per day and a 2-minute walk to ANC’s North Terminal

For flights using Anchorage’s North Terminal (international charters, seasonal runs, oddball operations), this short-term lot is the closest option, sitting directly next to the building with about a 2-minute walk to the doors. It’s marked as North Terminal – Short-Term Parking and is meant for quick trips, meet-and-greets, and drop-offs where you still want to park and go inside.

The rate caps at $13 per 24 hours, which undercuts the $16 daily cap at the South Terminal short-term garage. Same short-stay style setup, slightly lower bill if your flight actually uses the North side. Meter your math: a long weekend here can come in several dollars cheaper than mirroring that stay at the South Terminal garage.

There’s a posted 15-day maximum stay, matching the limit on other ANC short-term options, so this isn’t the spot for multi-week trips or extended off-season storage. Past that, airport parking staff can mark vehicles as overstays, and you risk extra hassle or towing fees that erase any savings from the $13 daily cap.

Access is straightforward off the airport loop road, with signage pointing to the North Terminal and its short-term lot; you pull a ticket at entry and pay on exit at the standard ANC parking machines. Since almost all regular passenger traffic runs through the South Terminal, this lot often feels quieter and is mainly used by people meeting specific international or charter arrivals.

Practical tip: before you park here, double-check your airline and itinerary to confirm your flight really operates from the North Terminal at ANC; if it’s actually South Terminal, you’ll want the main garage or South lots instead of committing to a 15-day-limited niche lot on the wrong side of the field.
