Orlando International Airport introduces advanced reserved parking
Travelers flying out of Orlando International Airport (MCO) can now purchase reserved parking before their flight.
Reserved parking at MCO is now available on level 4 of Garage C. The service costs $32 per day, which is $8 more than parking in the same garage without a reservation. The advanced reservation system does not accept E-Pass or SunPass Plus.
MCO announced the reservation service this week in a press release.
For now, Garage C is the only location at the Orlando airport offering reserved parking. The designated area, which contains 715 spaces, does not accommodate motorcycles, nor does it provide electric vehicle charging stations.
How to Reserve Your MCO Parking Spot
Secure your MCO parking spot reservation at this link on the airport’s website. You can also access the link through the MCO app, but the app will still open that outbound link in your internet browser.
Know Before You Go:
- You must reserve your spot at least 24 hours in advance. Super planners can make their reservation up to a year beforehand.
- You cannot reserve a specific parking space. Instead, your reservation will guarantee you a spot in the designated area on level 4 of Garage C.
- After processing your payment and reserving your spot, you will receive a QR code to present upon arrival.
Where to Find Your Reserved MCO Parking Area
The reserved parking area at Orlando INternational Airport is on level 4 of Garage C. This garage is located at 10200 Jeff Fuqua Blvd. South in Orlando. As you approach Garage C, drive in the two reservation lanes on the far right.
Even if signage indicates Garage C is full, you still have a guaranteed spot waiting for you as long as you’ve made a reservation.
Have your QR code ready to scan upon entry to Garage C. After your trip, when you exit Garage C, you will need to scan the same QR code.
“Our Strategic Plan In Action”
Reserved parking is one aspect of a larger plan for guest experience changes at MCO.
“This is a perfect example of our strategic plan in action, which focuses on innovation to meet demand and our customers’ needs,” said Kevin J. Thibault, CEO of the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority.
The airport also opened three new surface lots last month, bringing the airport’s total parking spaces to 2,000 more than it had a year ago.
Orlando International Airport is the latest Orlando business to add advanced reservations, for a price, to its visiting process. The airport’s parking reservations follow the 2021 roll-out of Walt Disney World’s Disney Genie+. That electronic service charges guests for front-of-line access to attractions via Lightning Lanes and reserved seating for shows. Online reservations in Orlando are universal (sorry).
Reserved parking is available to any MCO traveler, including those using the Brightline high-speed train, which opened last year.
