The Calgary International Airport has come a long way from its humble beginnings in 1914. It served a population of 70,000 people from a grass airstrip and a shack that doubled as a hangar and terminal. In 1938 it moved to its current location. Around 1966 it officially became the Calgary International Airport (YYC). Today, YYC serves a population of 1.3 million people with 18 million domestic and international passengers moving through the airport in 2019. 

 The Calgary International Airport has grown to be the fourth busiest airport in Canada. Busy airports mean busy parking lots. This guide will help you plan your parking needs before your next flight.

On-Site Calgary Airport Parking

The Calgary International Airport provides many options to park on-site whether you are there for a quick business trip or a lengthy vacation. You have your choice between:

      Short-term parking (P1/P2)

      Long-term parking (P1/P2)

      Overheight parking

      Economy lot

      Cell phone lot

      Electrical vehicle parking

      Accessible parking

Short-term Parking (P1/P2)

There are short-term parking levels in both the P1 and P2 parking structures. Even though these parking lots allow you to leave your vehicle for up to 30 days it is recommended to only use short-term parking for dropping off or picking up passengers.

 The short-term parking lots also have a height restriction of 6.5 feet. Larger vehicles or vehicles with large roof racks may not fit.

Long-term Parking (P1/P2)

Long-term parking can be found in parking structures P1 and P2 on levels P2, P4, P5, P6, and P7. The maximum length of stay is 60 days. The height restriction is 6.5 feet, which makes it unsuitable for larger vehicles or vehicles with roof racks.

 Domestic travellers should park in parkade 1 (P1). This will provide you closest access to the domestic terminal.

 International travellers, or travellers bound for the United States, should park in parkade 2 (P2). Level 4 of the P2 parking structure provides a bridge (Plus 30 Skywalk) over to the terminal. Alternatively, there is a pedestrian tunnel over to the terminal. The Airport Authority discourages passengers from crossing the roadway to reach the terminal.

 Long-term parking has a daily maximum rate of $27.95 CAD and a weekly maximum of $119.95 CAD. 

Overheight Parking

Overheight parking can be accessed next to the entrance of the P1 parking structure. Rates are similar to the long-term parkade except for a reduced day rate of $14.95 CAD after your first week.

Economy Lot

If you are a traveller on a budget that still wants to be close to the terminal then this lot is for you. It is a 7-10 minute walk to the domestic terminal. There is no shuttle service but luggage carts are available.

 The economy lot only offers daily or weekly rates. There are no hourly rates available. The daily maximum is $14.95 CAD and the weekly rate is $64.95 CAD.

Cell Phone Lot

This lot is to be used by drivers picking up arriving passengers. The passenger is expected to pick up their luggage and phone their awaiting driver when they have reached one of the five designated pick-up spots. Drivers may not stay more than 60 minutes in the cell phone lot. There is no fee.

Electrical Vehicle Parking

The Calgary International Airport provides limited spots in parking structure P1, on level 4, for travellers requiring EV charging. There are four universal and eight Tesla Electric Vehicle charging stations. Long-term parking fees apply. EV charging is included.

Accessible Parking

Accessible parking is in parking structures P1, P2 and overheight parking. Vehicles must display their accessible parking permit. Standard parking fees apply.
