Airport Parking Configuration
Detroit Metro Airport offers a range of parking options to suit different needs and preferences. The parking facilities include the McNamara Short-Term Parking, Big Blue Deck Short-Term Parking, McNamara Long-Term Parking, Big Blue Deck Long-Term Parking, and Green Lots 1 & 2. Each of these facilities offers different rates and maximum heights for vehicles. For instance, most areas can't accommodate vehicles over 7'0" high. However, van accessible parking spaces (for vehicles not exceeding 8’2” in height) are available in designated areas of the Big Blue Deck and McNamara Parking Garages. For vehicles higher than 8'2" in height, parking spaces are available at the Green Lots.
Getting To/From The Lots
Free shuttles are available to transport passengers between on-airport parking lots and the Ground Transportation Center at both terminals. Terminal-to-terminal shuttles connect passengers to McNamara and Evans Terminal, with a convenient stop at the Westin Hotel located at McNamara Terminal. These shuttles depart approximately every 10 minutes from the Ground Transportation Centers and Westin Hotel entrance. Green Lot Shuttles are also available for those parked in Green Lots 1 & 2.
Cell Phone Waiting Lots
For those picking up arriving passengers, the airport offers cell phone waiting lots at each end of the airport. These free lots provide a convenient place for drivers to wait for their party to arrive without having to park and wait inside the terminal.
