Long-Term Parking

Daily $10 rate makes Long-Term Parking the cheapest on-site option

At Meadows Field (BFL), Long-Term Parking runs a flat $10.00 per day, undercutting the short-term lot if your trip runs beyond a quick overnight. It’s the airport’s dedicated long stay option, so you’re not gambling on time limits or surprise higher rates when you get back from a week away.

The lot sits within easy walking distance of the Main Terminal entrance, so there’s no shuttle wait, no extra transfer, and no guessing about pickup spots. You park, grab your bags, and you’re at the doors in a few minutes on foot, which matters on early morning departures and late-night returns.

Pricing here is simple: you pay by the day at $10.00, not by the hour. For a 5-day trip, you’re looking at about $50 plus any local taxes instead of stacking short-term hourly charges. If you tend to cut arrival times close, build in a small buffer to park, lock up, and walk to check-in at the Main Terminal.

Security presence and cameras aren’t heavily advertised, but this is the primary long-stay lot for BFL, and it sits close to the terminal rather than off in a distant field. For longer trips of 3–14 days, it generally beats paying short-term rates and also avoids the hassle of off-airport shuttles and their 10–15 minute wait times.

Tip: On busy holiday weeks, aim to arrive at least 20–30 minutes earlier than usual so you have time to pick a spot in Long-Term Parking, note your row, and still walk to the Main Terminal without rushing to the security line.
