LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Heading to the airport this holiday season? Keep in mind that for the past several months, parking at Harry Reid International Airport Terminal 1 has been filling up nearly every weekend.
The airport says this will continue into Christmas week. Those traveling should plan to arrive early and give themselves up to an additional hour to account for parking. It is never too early to start planning.
- Airport parking locations and fees can be found at www.mccarran.com/parking
- If you are leaving directly from work, or have a tight travel window for any other reason you may want to consider alternate methods of getting to the airport. These include:
- Arranging for a ride with friends/family
- Exploring options such as Uber/Lyft or taxi.
According to a statement from the airport, Terminal 1 long-term parking will reach capacity.
