NEW YORK — Traveling from a New York City area airport this summer? You may want to consider public transportation or have a friend drive you if you want to save some money.
The new summer parking rates will go into effect Thursday at LaGaurdia and JFK airports in Queens, as well as Newark Liberty International Airport, the Port Authority said. Drivers could cost up to $20 more to park their cars, depending on the airport and the garage or lot being used.
The Port Authority said the reason for the increase is the increase in travelers flying in during the summer months and, in turn, more people driving to airports. That creates a significant increase in demand for airport parking.
To alleviate demand, and as a way for travelers to save money, the Port Authority encouraged those going to the airport to use public transportation, taxis and rideshares, if possible. Those wishing to fly can also reserve parking spaces in advance, the price of which does not go up for certain lots and garages.
Does the steeper increase take effect? Those looking to park at Terminal A in LaGaurdia and P4 Daily Garage in Newark. Driving costs were $55 and $40, respectively, in those two areas; those prices go up $20 starting Thursday.
