Daily max hits $20 in the IND Long-Term Terminal Garage
Rates run $20 per day in Indianapolis Airport’s Long-Term Parking, which sits directly across from the Main Terminal. This is structured garage parking, not an open surface lot, so your car stays under cover during Indiana snow or summer storms. You walk from your spot into the terminal via the enclosed pedestrian bridges, with no shuttle wait and no curbside chaos.
The Long-Term Parking garage is open 24/7 and connects straight into IND’s Main Terminal ticketing hall in a few minutes on foot. Elevators and stairwells are spread through the structure, so you’re never far from a way down to the terminal walkway. If you’re hauling large checked bags for a week-long trip, the short walking distance beats loading everything on and off an off-site shuttle.
Garage clearance is posted at standard height for multi-level airport parking (around 7 feet), which fits most SUVs and crossovers but not tall box trucks or some vans. If your vehicle is oversized or has a roof box that pushes height, you may need to pivot to an economy or surface lot further from the Main Terminal. For most regular cars, signage at each entrance lane clearly shows if you’ll make it.
Payment is automated at exit gates with major credit cards accepted, and the system calculates charges based on your entry time down to the hour, capping at the $20 daily max. Keep your ticket handy; losing it triggers the posted “lost ticket” fee, which can run higher than your actual stay. One smart move: snap a quick photo of your parking level and section before heading to security so you’re not wandering the garage at midnight on return.
