RDU Airport Parking Reservations, Check Availability and Book Your Dates
Tell us when you fly out and when you are back. We check availability on partner lots around the airport, quote the daily rate, and hold the space. Shuttles run to the terminal from every lot in the set.

VoyBeam is an independent reservation service. We are not an airport, an airline or a parking operator, and we are not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any of them. Spaces are held on partner lots run by their own companies.
Lot types we reserve
Every one of these belongs to an operator, not to us. What differs between them is cover, the shuttle ride and the daily rate.
Open air
Fenced surface lot, north approach
- Shuttle
- 7 to 9 minutes
Perimeter fence, lit rows, camera coverage on the entry lanes. The everyday choice.
Attended
Valet drop, terminal side
- Shuttle
- 3 to 5 minutes
You hand the keys over at a booth. Fastest at the kerb, dearest per day.
Open air
Long stay surface lot, south approach
- Shuttle
- 10 to 14 minutes
Lowest daily rate in the set. Worth it from about five days upward.
Open air
Oversized and roof rack lot
- Shuttle
- 9 to 12 minutes
Bays sized for vans, trucks with racks and small trailers.
Mixed
Electric charging rows
- Shuttle
- 6 to 8 minutes
A block of bays with chargers, on a covered level. Availability is thin, ask early.
Why a desk sits between you and the lot
- 1
Send your dates
Drop off, pick up, the lot type if you have a preference, and what you drive. The strip above takes about twenty seconds.
- 2
We check availability
The desk asks the operators who have room in your window, at the lot types that suit the vehicle. Available dates come back to you, not a template.
- 3
You see the daily rate
A figure for your actual dates, with anything that could add to it named in the same message. Free to ask, no obligation attached.
- 4
You confirm, we hold it
The space is reserved with the operator once you say yes. Nothing exists until then, and nothing is charged here.
What we are, and what we are not
VoyBeam reserves spaces. The lots belong to operators who run them, staff them, insure them and take the money. That split matters when something goes wrong at a barrier at six in the morning, so it is written here rather than buried.
- What we do
- Check availability, quote the daily rate, place and hold the reservation, stay reachable
- What the operator does
- Runs the lot, staffs the gate, runs the shuttle, sets and collects the fee
- What we never do
- Own a lot, employ an attendant, take payment on this site, hold your card
Daily rates, honestly framed
Every figure this site publishes is a starting daily rate. What you finally pay depends on the dates, the lot and the vehicle, and it is confirmed with you before anything is held.
| Lot type | Daily rate from | Shuttle | Suits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Long stay surface lot | $6.50 | 10 to 14 min | Trips of five days and up |
| Fenced surface lot | $9.00 | 7 to 9 min | The everyday choice, any length |
| Covered deck | $13.00 | 4 to 6 min | July heat, January ice, new cars |
| Oversized bays | $14.50 | 9 to 12 min | Vans, racks, small trailers |
| Electric charging rows | $16.00 | 6 to 8 min | Leaving with a full battery |
| Valet drop | $21.00 | 3 to 5 min | Tight departures and business trips |
Where this works
One airport and the towns around it. Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Morrisville, Apex, Chapel Hill and Wake Forest are all inside the service areas, and the lots themselves sit on the approaches to RDU.
We do not claim coverage anywhere else, because we do not have it. A desk that says it books parking at forty airports is a desk that has never met the barrier arm at any of them.
Recent guides
Choosing
Choosing a lot without overpaying
Cover, shuttle and daily rate. Most people optimise the rate and pay for it in minutes.
Timing
Allowing time for the shuttle
Add the wait, not just the ride. Fifteen to twenty five minutes door to terminal is realistic.
Long stays
Parking for two weeks or more
Long stay lots win decisively past a fortnight, with three things to check before you leave the car.
The part most people get wrong
Not the price. The shuttle.
A lot that saves four dollars a day and adds twelve minutes each way costs you almost half an hour of your trip, twice, and it does it in the two moments of a journey when nobody has any patience left. On a four day trip that trade is usually wrong. On a fourteen day trip it is usually right.
The desk will say which way it falls for your dates rather than selling you the cheaper row every time. That is most of what the guides on this site are about, and it is why the shuttle time sits on every card above, next to the rate rather than three clicks away from it.
Have the dates already
Send them and the desk comes back with what is available and the daily rate. Asking is free and commits you to nothing. Nothing is held until you say so.
