Newark Airport (EWR) Parking Information

Newark Liberty International Airport services the greater New York City Metropolitan area. While the airport is in Newark, New Jersey, it has great access from south west Manhattan via interstate I-95.  To the north of the airport, is the Newark Airport Exchange which connects I-78, US 1-9, Route 22, and Route 21, and I-95/NJ Turnpike. Airport parking is available at the airport but most travelers flying out of EWR opt for long term parking lots located in the outskirts of the airport area. 

The parking choices at EWR are short-term parking in the terminal area, daily parking in Garage 4, and economy parking. All parking options allow for overnight parking but the cost for each differ immensely. Due to higher parking rates, terminal lots A, B, and C, are reserved for hourly parking. If you are picking someone up at the airport and need to park close to the terminals, this would be ideal 

Off the highways that surround Newark Airport, there are several long-term airport parking lots. Most parking services in the Newark Liberty area are  outdoor parking lots. Because these lots are so busy, the services are mostly drop off and valet so they have flexibility to move your car and “pack it in” if needed. There are few higher end independent parking services that offer covered parking and the choice of valet or self park. If you do not like people driving your car or do not want to leave your car out during a snow storm, keep this options in mind.
