$10/day long stay without giving up the attached deck
Long Stay Parking at BHM runs $10 per day or $70 per week, aimed at trips where you park once and don’t think about your car again. It sits about 0.5 miles from the Main Terminal, so you’re trading a covered attached deck for a slightly cheaper long‑term rate and a bit more walking.
This is the airport’s official long stay product, different from the parking deck daily levels that cap at $17 per day for anyone staying over four hours. If you’re going out for 7 days, that’s $70 here versus up to $119 in the deck, which adds up fast on longer work trips or a weeklong vacation.
The walk from Long Stay Parking to the Main Terminal averages about 10 minutes at a normal pace for 0.5 miles, so budget that on top of TSA wait times. There’s no complex shuttle loop to figure out; you’re just following signs from the lot into the terminal entrance used by all BHM airlines.
If your vehicle is tall, remember the parking deck’s daily levels top out at about 6’2" clearance, and the airport pushes anything bigger over to the oversize area at the same $17/day rate. Long Stay Parking doesn’t give you that attached‑deck cover, but it does avoid the 6’2" squeeze and still saves about $7 per day versus deck pricing.
Tip: Do the math before you pull a ticket: once you cross roughly four days, Long Stay’s $10/day starts beating the deck’s $17/day by enough that the 10‑minute walk is usually worth it.
