Web site helps business travelers anticipate airport parking and security checkpoint snags
Making your flight is hard enough when you have to scour a crowded airport parking lot for an empty space. With luggage regulations tighter than ever, checking bags and getting through long security checkpoint lines steal even more time. If you frequently find yourself making a mad dash to get to your gate before the final boarding call, save yourself time and trouble by checking out AboutAirportParking.com before you leave. Using Google Maps of more than 400 parking lots connected to airports across the country, the site offers a virtual snapshot of the lots closest to you and their distance to the terminal and lets you compare rates and browse parking lot reviews. You can also find the status of airport delays and links to a calculator on the Transportation Security Administration’s Web site that estimates security checkpoint wait times by airport, day of the week and departure time.
