Event-only spillover lot for Hato’s busiest days
Overflow Parking at Hato International Airport (CUR) only opens during peak demand days and special events, when the regular lots near the terminal start to fill up. Treat it as backup, not your primary plan, because on normal days the gates stay locked and signage may be minimal.
This is an outdoor surface lot with basic event use setup, not a long-term structured garage. You won’t find covered spaces or premium bays here; think rows of standard open-air parking used when flight volumes or local events push CUR’s main parking beyond capacity.
Access normally runs through the airport’s main vehicle entrance on the approach road to Hato International, with staff redirecting cars to Overflow Parking once the standard lots close out. Look for temporary cones and direction boards when traffic spikes, especially around major regional holidays and weekend rush periods.
Rates usually mirror the airport’s standard car parking pricing for the same calendar day, but airport staff can switch to flat “event day” charges depending on demand. Always check the posted fee board or ask at the entry point before taking a ticket, so you know exactly what a 24-hour stay will cost.
Security presence in Overflow Parking often relies on roaming patrols and the main airport CCTV network, not dense camera coverage on every row. Don’t leave valuables visible in the car, lock all doors, and photograph your license plate and row marker so you can find your vehicle quickly after a late-evening arrival.
Walking time from Overflow Parking to the terminal can stretch beyond the usual 5–7 minute stroll from the main lot, especially if only one pedestrian route is open. Build at least an extra 15 minutes into your arrival time on high-traffic days in case the walk or shuttle pickup takes longer than expected.
