Best parking at lax
The following are the best and cheap LAX airport parking lot options when traveling:
1. QuikPark lax
QuikPark offers two times cheaper airport parking rates compared to the LAX airport parking rates.
The last time I packed my car at Quikpark, the parking rate was $25.95 per day. However, I should also point out that this is the best option if you will be taking more than a day’s trip.
The screenshot below shows the total cost of a 2-day airport parking.

Other benefits of using Quikpark airport parking include:
- It is very close to the airport.
- Free shuttle service.
- It is fast to check in and check out.
- It has covered indoor parking.
These are so far my 4 best benefits.

2. VIP Parking
VIP Parking is just about a 5 to 10 minutes shuttle ride to the LAX terminals. Therefore, this is also a great QuikPark alternative.
The following are the VIP parking rates quotation that I received from VIP Parking a while back when booking.
| Parking Space | 1 Hour | 1 Day |
| Valet Uncovered | $15.95 | $31.90 |
| Self Parking Uncovered | $17.95 | $35.90 |
| Valet Covered | $19.95 | $39.90 |
| Self Parking Covered | $20.95 | $41.90 |
The below screenshot shows the total cost for uncovered airport parking after booking VIP Parking.
Here are a few things to note when booking a parking slot on VIP Parking:
- The shuttle is not available 24/7.
- The shuttle is only free for customers who park for more than 3 days.

Additionally, if you have an electric vehicle, they have charging stations available.
