Find Lots Close to the Terminal
Way lists several lots within a short drive of DEN, and the closest sit within 1.5 miles of the airport. They suit an early morning flight from DIA, when you want the shortest possible start. Anyone after DIA parking in Denver, CO with a quick morning exit should check these first.
Each lot has security cameras and staff on site. Offsite lots here either run a free shuttle or connect directly to the airport.
DEN is one of the busiest airports in the US, and it is easy to get turned around. Our DEN Airport map shows entrances, exits, and concourses near your parking. It also points the way to lounges and restaurants.
DEN Airport Terminals
DEN mainly runs on one building, the Jeppesen Terminal. It splits into West and East sides, which keeps check-in and baggage handling in one place. Flights depart from and arrive at Concourses A, B, and C.
A pedestrian bridge reaches Concourse A. An underground train links all three concourses to the main terminal. If that layout confuses you, our DEN Terminal map gets you to your gate.
Cheap Denver Airport parking from $3.99 a day
Onsite parking at DIA gets expensive fast. Way shows nearby lots with better amenities at rates from $3.99 a day, the lowest rate listed today. Prebook through Way, and the savings start before you leave the house.

Reserving a long stay at DEN is not simple when the airport is busy. Way handles the hard part. Plans also change, and a trip sometimes runs over a few days.
Extending airport parking in Denver takes a few taps in the app or on the website. That flexibility applies to long-term bookings, too. A longer trip does not have to mean a bigger surprise on the bill.

Short-Term Parking at Denver Airport: Hourly Lots and Quick Stops
East Hourly and West Hourly are the onsite lots built for quick stops. Both list at $168 a day, so they only make sense for short visits. If your stop runs past a pickup or a drop-off, an offsite lot costs far less.
Plan Around DEN TSA Wait Times and Flight Status
TSA waits at DEN keep growing as passenger volume rises. Plan the parking along with everything else, so you avoid delays before security. Processing time depends on how many passengers show up for flights. Check the live DEN TSA wait times. If waits run long, leave earlier.
Weather, air traffic congestion, and airline operations all cause delays at DEN. Schedules can change at any time. Our live DEN flight status page keeps you current, so you know when to head out.

Types of DIA Airport Parking
Denver International Airport offers several parking options based on your preference. You can choose DIA Airport parking based on your budget, trip lengths, and parking lot type.
Covered and Uncovered Parking
Covered or garage parking is priced higher compared to uncovered parking. While parking garages are the closest options to the terminals, offsite garages offer added protection for your vehicle. Also, parking at East Garage and West Garage costs $35 per day. However, cheaper options are available offsite. Several of these covered parking lots are within 1 to 3 miles of the airport and are ideal for long trips. For short trips, uncovered lots are the most affordable parking option.
Economy and Shuttle Lot
The Economy parking lots are aimed at travelers who prioritize their budget. At DEN, you can find East and West Economy Lots that charge $20 per day. If you think the economy lots are costly, check out the offsite lots owned by hotels near DEN. Complimentary shuttle service is also available from offsite lots. But the DIA Economy lots fill up quickly, and you might not be able to find the cheapest lots for the date of your scheduled flight. Therefore, it is best to book your parking spot in advance. While looking for the cheapest parking, you can also search for the lots that offer free shuttle service.
Valet Parking
Valet parking is one of the most efficient options when flying out of DIA. It allows travelers to leave their vehicle with parking staff while heading directly to the airport shuttle or terminal. Many offsite parking providers near DEN offer valet service, where attendants park and retrieve the vehicle upon your return. Once you pre-book valet parking, you can head directly to the terminal and hand over the keys to the attendants at designated points outside the terminal. This option is convenient for travelers seeking a quicker arrival and departure experience, particularly during busy travel periods.
Cell Phone Waiting Lot
The Final Approach Cell Phone Waiting Lot provides free parking for drivers picking up arriving passengers at Denver International Airport. The lot is located approximately three miles west of Jeppesen Terminal. Drivers can wait here until their passengers have collected their baggage and are ready for pickup. Remember, it is not an alternative option for travelers who are planning for overnight or long-term parking. The free lot is open to drivers only for a limited time, and the airport authority will tow vehicles that remain unattended for an extended period.

Reserving a spot in advance made my travel day much easier. Didn't have to stress over reservation and shuttle.

Honestly, The app pointed me to a covered garage that fit my budget. I liked reading other drivers’ notes about which entrance to use. I am happy I did not have to overpay for the same service.

On my last trip, I am not super techy, and I still reserved in a few minutes. I felt the photos in the listing matched the real place pretty well. I left the trip with one less thing to stress about.

Reserve Parking at Denver AirportQuestions travelers ask before reserving at DEN
Can I leave my car at DEN for weeks at a time?
Yes. Long-term parking at Denver International is available onsite, but the lowest rates and best amenities come from offsite lots. Most offer covered or uncovered spaces, valet, and a complimentary shuttle.
What does the airport's Economy lot charge?
Economy parking at DEN runs $20 a day. For the lowest Denver International Airport parking rates, look offsite. Uncovered spaces through Way start at $3.99 a day.
Why does parking at DEN cost so much?
Running big lots and shuttle fleets is expensive, and onsite rates reflect that. You can sidestep much of it by booking an offsite lot in our app or on the website. Uncovered spaces there start at $3.99 a day.
Which lots are cheapest near the airport?
AmericInn lists the lowest rate at $3.99 a day, 6.00 miles from the airport with a free shuttle. Embassy Suites at $5.70 and Residence Inn at $6.00 follow closely. Rates change, so confirm the price when you book.
Which lot is the safest option?
Hotel-owned and operator-run offsite lots near DEN typically use CCTV and security personnel. Courtyard Gateway Park, rated 4.8 across 12 reviews, is one example. It also includes a free shuttle.
Is overnight parking available for an early flight?
Yes, overnight stays are available for DIA parking in Denver, CO. Offsite lots tend to do it better for the money, with stronger security at lower rates. Pick one whose shuttle runs when your flight leaves.
Which offsite lots have a free shuttle?
Canopy Denver (DIA) is one offsite lot with a free shuttle to the airport. On today's list, every lot except the Westin direct-access garage runs one. Check the shuttle label before you book.
Do I need a reservation to park at DEN?
Onsite, Denver Airport parking does not require a reservation, though we recommend one. For a guaranteed space at the cheapest rate available, prebook through Way. It also keeps your budget predictable.
My trip got longer. Can I add days?
Yes. Open your booking in the Way app or on the website and extend the stay. Flexible extensions help when weather or meetings push your return back by a few days.
Is there a lot close enough to walk?
Most parking at Denver Airport needs a ride to the terminal. The exception is the covered valet garage with direct terminal access at the Westin, 0.10 miles away. It lists at $30 a day and runs no shuttle.
Is hourly parking at DEN ever worth it?
Short-term parking at Denver Airport means the East or West Hourly lot, both listed at $168 a day. That suits a quick drop-off. Anything longer costs far less at an offsite lot with a free shuttle.
