Parking Garage

$16 per day gets you covered parking right by GNV T

The Parking Garage at Gainesville Regional Airport sits next to Terminal T and runs a flat $16 daily max after 5 hours up to 24 hours. It’s the structured option here, built as part of the airport’s intermodal project, so it feels like the newest facility on the field. If you care more about shade and keeping the car dry than saving a few dollars, this is the one you’re looking at first.

This is proper covered long-term parking with a covered walkway straight to the terminal entrance, so you’re not sprinting through a Florida downpour with bags. The structure holds over 400 spaces, so on normal travel days you’re not circling endlessly. Think park, grab your bag, walk under cover, and you’re at check-in in a couple of minutes.

Rates are simple: after 5 hours, you hit the $16 daily max, and there’s no grace period listed for the garage. Pay attention to your entry time if you’re cutting it close to the 5-hour mark, because rolling over that line bills as a full day. The lanes are fully automated and stay open 24/7/365, so late-night arrivals and 5 a.m. departures are covered.

The intermodal setup includes EV charging stations in the garage and on-site restrooms, useful if you’ve been driving US‑301 or I‑75 for a while. Each automated exit has a help button at the gate that connects to staff if the machine misreads a ticket or a card. One practical move: snap a photo of your level or row before heading to T, since the covered structure and similar sightlines make it easy to forget exactly where you parked on a long trip.
