Long Stay Parking

Four seats from León or San Miguel? Run the math on BJX Long Stay Parking.

For a family of four coming in from León, Guanajuato, or San Miguel de Allende, the official Long Stay Parking at BJX often beats paying for 4 shuttle seats, even at the posted $10.00 per day rate. One TripAdvisor poster called the prices “less than favorable,” then admitted parking still came out cheaper than four shuttle tickets from their town.

This is a long stay lot about 0.5 miles from Terminal T1, roughly a 10-minute walk to check-in if you’re rolling standard carry-ons. It’s on-airport, so no third-party bus loop or off-site pickup zones to deal with, just park, walk, and go. Figure your total at $70.00 per week if you’re gone seven days.

Pricing is flat and simple: $10.00 daily, capped at $70.00 for seven days, which starts to look high if you’re solo but reasonable with 3–4 people sharing one car. That’s exactly how locals on TripAdvisor frame it: compare the weekly $70.00 bill against what a round-trip shuttle or private car would cost per person from León or San Miguel.

Regulars say they rarely just “default” to parking or shuttle; they always compare per-person shuttle fares against that $10.00/day parking charge. Complaints mostly focus on expectations for a small regional airport, with some calling the official long-term rates “less than favorable” for single travelers or couples staying more than 3–4 days.

Tip: If you’re a group of three or four staying 5–7 days, price out shuttle seats first; if the total is anywhere near $70, drive and use Long Stay Parking instead.
