Long Term Parking

$12 per day, 3‑minute walk: this is MGM’s default lot

Long Term Parking at Montgomery Regional sits directly next to the Main Terminal, with most people quoting a 3‑minute walk from car to check‑in. For a small field like MGM, this lot basically acts like a big‑hub economy option, just without the shuttle drag or off‑airport hassle.

The posted rate runs $1 per hour with a $12 maximum per 24 hours, so once you cross the 12‑hour mark you’re effectively on a flat daily rate. There’s no published weekly discount tier, so a 7‑day trip prices out at $84 at the current cap.

Following Selma Highway (US‑80), you drive straight ahead at the parking signs and Long Term is right in front, in the same on‑airport complex as the other MGM lots. The airport specifically notes that all lots are walkable, and there’s no official terminal shuttle for this long‑stay section.

All MGM parking, including Long Term, is first‑come, first‑served with no online reservation system or pre‑booked spaces. That’s why third‑party coupon and reservation sites often show “no on‑airport inventory” and try to point you to generic off‑airport options instead.

The airport calls out that Long Term is well‑lit, monitored by CCTV, and patrolled 24/7 by airport police, which is more detail than you usually see for a regional field. Payment runs through the same system as the other lots: cash, traveler’s checks, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and AmEx; personal checks are off the table.

Regulars who chase promo codes on national parking sites usually end up here anyway, deciding the flat $12 per‑day cap beats most big‑city “deal” rates. One practical move: budget an extra 5–10 minutes on peak mornings, not for the walk, but in case you need a couple of passes to find a spot in the closer rows.
