We just moved to Austin, and Friday will be my first time flying out here. I typically prefer to park at the terminal, but they are not taking reservations through the end of this month. Does anyone have a feel for how likely I am to get into the blue garage, with the red garage as a backup? If those are not realistic possibilities, then what are suggestions for the closest/easiest parking other than at the terminal?

I am not worried about the cost and want to avoid hassle more than anything else. We fly out Friday morning at 7:00 if it helps to know that. Thanks in advance for any information or help.

ETA - cross-posted on the Travel board, too.

I've used Fast Park for years. Very convenient and usually very quick.

We parked in the blue garage a couple of Friday's ago. Granted we had a 5:30 am flight, but there was plenty of parking. You may not get on the 2nd deck, but should be fine.

Lines may be a pain with SxSW and spring break so i would get there early.

Welcome to Austin! There's always plenty of parking throughout the year in the Blue Garage. My wife and I had a 7 AM flight to Vegas a couple weeks ago and there was plenty of parking. Now SXSW may cause a problem with that though if that's when you plan to leave, but I honestly wouldn't be worried about it.

Thanks. Looks reasonable.

I have an extended trip later this summer and may use in lieu of parking.

I started using him when Uber pulled out and never stoped, its him and his nephew and a few others. The Mercedes he has is awesome and I love that on the way back he just picks you up at the curb. He will also do bags if you ask

We use George at Watson Limo also. He takes us downtown to dinner, to the airport and back. Great service. S class Mercedes.
