PDX long- and short-term parking rates to rise April 1

Portland International Airport’s short-term and long-term parking garage rates will increase by $3 per day beginning April 1, the Port of Portland said on Tuesday. Existing hourly parking garage rates of $3 will remain the same, as will all other airport parking rates.

With the price increase, short-term garage daily maximum rates will increase to $27 and long-term garage daily maximum rates will increase to $21. The increase applies to vehicles that enter the garage on or after April 1.

Short-term garage rates last increased in 2006; long-term garage rates last increased in 2012. In part, the rate increases will encourage more use of the airport’s economy parking lot, where parking is $10 per day with the seventh day free. The parking garages are often full midweek, the port said. Revenues raised by PDX parking fees support future airport parking and transportation improvements, such as parking and roadway expansion and maintenance.
