The Parking Spot Offers a Stress-Free Option for Holiday Travelers

Approximately 4.5 million Americans traveled by plane over Thanksgiving. Looking ahead to December holiday travel, 46% of Americans plan to travel by plane, according to PwC’s Holiday Outlook. Anyone flying in the coming month needs to start planning now.

Planning ahead starts with making as many reservations as possible. When planning trips, many folks book flights and hotels first, followed by activities and excursions, and then consider themselves done with their preparation. This means that considering how to get to the airport to start their adventure is often an afterthought or spur-of-the-moment decision within hours of the plane taking off.

While rideshare can be convenient, travelers are subject to whatever surge pricing is taking place at the time requested, and wait times can vary based on driver availability. Plus, when traveling as a family, there is the issue of car seats for little ones and hauling a lot of luggage in someone else’s vehicle, all while hoping it’s big enough for both bags and people.

The Parking Spot at BDL is a great option for holiday travelers looking for a convenient, safe, and affordable parking solution. The lot is located on Schoephoester Road, just a stone’s throw from Bradley International Airport, and parking includes complimentary trunk-to-terminal shuttle service with luggage assistance. Plus, when you reserve ahead of time, you can lock in parking for under $6/day – no surprises at checkout!

“At The Parking Spot, we pride ourselves on being more than a parking lot. We are truly a hospitality company, and that’s why we care so much about doing our part to make travel easier,” said Matt Seymour, Sr. Operations Manager for The Parking Spot in Hartford. “We help guests navigate the airport and travel challenges every day. Knowing that Bradley is the second largest airport in New England and travelers may be navigating new facilities for the first time, it’s important to plan ahead and take steps to ensure your trip goes as smoothly as possible.”

Valet service, including covered valet parking, is available for added convenience. Express check-in and check-out are offered via The Parking Spot app, and in/out privileges meet the needs of the modern traveler dealing with flight delays and changes. Plus, travelers can reserve add-on amenities like a car wash to their stay.

While guests are always encouraged to reserve ahead for the greatest savings and peace of mind, the country’s largest near-airport parking company understands that things change and a reservation isn’t always possible. This holiday season, The Parking Spot is pleased to offer a $7/day self-parking rate for drive-up guests, so travelers can park their stress at home and know their car’s holiday stay isn’t breaking the bank.
