Newark airport parking rates & reservations
How much is Newark airport parking with Prime Airport Parking?
Valet parking at our secure lot near Newark Liberty International Airport is one flat rate of $8.99 per day, plus Booking fees and taxes (10%). The rate is the same for every day of your stay, whether you park for one night or several weeks, and it includes valet service and the free 24/7 shuttle to every EWR terminal. Larger vehicles add a small daily oversize surcharge. A $5.44 booking fee is added once per reservation, and nothing is charged online.
Is there an extra charge for an SUV, minivan or pickup truck?
Yes, larger vehicles pay a small surcharge for every billed day, on top of the $8.99 daily rate. Standard cars (sedan, coupe, hatchback, small car) pay no surcharge. The surcharges are: small SUV / crossover +$5 per day (e.g. Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, Nissan Rogue); medium SUV / minivan +$7 per day (e.g. Toyota Highlander, Honda Odyssey, Kia Carnival); pickup truck / large SUV +$10 per day (e.g. Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Chevy Tahoe). Your online reservation is priced for a standard car; our team checks your vehicle when you drop it off and the surcharge is added at the lot.
How do I make a Newark airport parking reservation?
Choose your arrival and departure dates and times in the booking form, then enter your full name, email, mobile number, vehicle make and model and license plate. It takes about a minute and it's free. Your booking number and confirmation are emailed to you straight away.
How are parking days counted, and is there a grace period?
Your stay is counted in 24-hour periods from the arrival time on your reservation. Every started 24 hours counts as a day, after a 1-hour grace period, and every stay counts as at least one day. For example, a stay of up to 25 hours counts as one day. Your reservation summary shows your estimated total before you confirm.
Are Booking fees and taxes included in the daily rate?
No. The $8.99 daily rate is before Booking fees and taxes. The Booking fees and taxes (10%) are added to your parking charge and any oversize surcharge, after any promo code discount, and the total shown on your reservation already includes them. You pay that total at the lot.
Can I use a promo code?
Yes, promo codes may apply. Enter your code when you reserve and the discount comes off your parking charge before Booking fees and taxes, so the total on your confirmation already reflects it. You then pay the discounted total at the lot.
How far ahead do I need to reserve, and how long can I park?
Online reservations need to start at least 2 hours after you book. If you need parking sooner, call us at (862) 372-2652 and our team will do its best to help. One online reservation can cover a stay of up to 60 days. For a longer trip, give us a call.
Paying for parking near EWR
How do I pay for parking?
You reserve online for free and pay at the lot. When you sign in at our office, our team checks your reservation and you settle your total there. We don't take any payment online, so you never need to share payment details to reserve. If you have a question about paying, call us at (862) 372-2652.
Is anything charged when I reserve online?
No. Reserving online is free and nothing is charged online. Your reservation simply holds your dates and lets our team have everything ready for your vehicle when you arrive.
When do I pay?
You pay at the lot when you sign in at the office to drop off your car, before you board the shuttle to your terminal. If your stay doesn't match your reservation, for example you come back later than planned, days outside your reserved dates are charged at $20 per day and settled at the lot when you collect your car.
What should I bring to the lot?
Bring your booking number (it starts with PPE, and having it on your phone is fine) and your car keys. Your confirmation email shows your total including Booking fees and taxes, so you know what you'll pay at the lot. You don't need to print anything, but you can view or print your confirmation any time from Manage Booking.
Where do I find my booking number?
Your booking number starts with PPE (for example PPE100001) and is in the confirmation email we send as soon as you reserve. If you can't find it, check your spam or promotions folder, or call us at (862) 372-2652 and our team will look it up for you.
Newark airport valet parking at our secure lot
How does drop-off work at your Newark airport valet lot?
Drive to our lot at 964 Frelinghuysen Ave, Newark, NJ 07114 and sign in at the office with your booking number. Hand your keys to our valet team and you'll receive a valet ticket. Our team parks your car in our secure lot while you ride the free shuttle to your terminal. There's no hunting for a space and no walking across a parking lot with your luggage.
Do I have to leave my keys?
Yes. With valet parking, your keys stay with our valet team for the whole of your trip, so they can park your car and bring it out again when you return. In exchange you get a valet ticket. Keep it safe, because you'll show it to collect your car.
How big is the lot?
Our secure valet lot has 350 spaces. Reserving ahead online is free and lets our team have everything ready for your vehicle when you arrive.

Are you part of Newark Airport's official parking?
No. Prime Airport Parking Newark is an independent off-airport park and fly operator near Newark Liberty International Airport. We are not affiliated with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey or with Newark Liberty International Airport.
EWR parking with a free shuttle to every terminal
How long is the shuttle ride to the Newark airport terminals?
The ride takes about 10 minutes, depending on traffic. The shuttle is free, runs on demand, around the clock and drops you at your terminal.
What time should I arrive at the lot?
Arrive at our lot about 20 minutes before you want to be at your terminal. That leaves time to sign in at the office, hand over your keys and ride the shuttle. The TSA advises being at the terminal about 2 hours before a domestic flight; for international flights, follow your airline's advice, and allow extra time on busy holiday travel days.
Which EWR terminals does the shuttle serve?
Our free shuttle serves Terminals A, B and C at Newark Liberty International Airport. Tell the driver your airline and terminal when you board and you'll be dropped at your terminal. Always confirm your terminal on your ticket or in your airline's app before you travel.
Which airlines use each Newark airport terminal?
As a general guide: Terminal A is Newark's new terminal, opened in 2023; Terminal B serves many international airlines; and Terminal C is United Airlines' hub. AirTrain Newark links the terminals with Newark Liberty International Airport Station for NJ Transit and Amtrak trains. Assignments change, so check your ticket or airline app.
How do I get back to my car when I land?
Collect your luggage first, then call us at (862) 372-2652 and tell us your terminal. The free shuttle comes to pick you up and brings you back to the lot. Show your valet ticket and our team brings out your car so you can load your bags and drive home.
Do I need to book the shuttle in advance?
No. The shuttle is free for every reservation and runs on demand, around the clock. On the way out it leaves from our lot after you sign in and hand over your keys. On the way back, just call (862) 372-2652 once you have your bags and we'll send it to pick you up.
Changing or cancelling your reservation
Can I cancel my reservation for free?
Yes. You can cancel free of charge up to 1 hour before your arrival time. Because nothing is charged online, there's nothing to refund: your reservation is simply cancelled.
How do I change or cancel my reservation?
Go to Manage Booking and enter your booking number (it starts with PPE and is in your confirmation email) and the email you reserved with. You can also call us at (862) 372-2652. Changes and cancellations are free up to 1 hour before your arrival time.
Can I change my dates or times?
Yes. Change your arrival or departure date and time free of charge up to 1 hour before arrival. Your estimated total is updated for your new dates at the same $8.99 daily rate.
What if I arrive later than my reservation?
Your reserved rate covers the dates on your reservation. If you arrive late, or return earlier or later than planned, any days outside your reserved dates are charged at $20 per day, paid at the lot. If you know your plans have changed, update your arrival on Manage Booking (free up to 1 hour before your arrival time) or call us at (862) 372-2652.
What if my flight is delayed or I come back later than planned?
Your car stays safely with us. Days after your reserved departure are outside your reserved dates, so they're charged at $20 per day and paid at the lot when you collect your car. The shuttle runs 24/7, so just call us at (862) 372-2652 once you have your luggage, whatever the time.
What if I come back early?
Just follow the usual steps: collect your luggage, call us at (862) 372-2652, ride the shuttle back and show your valet ticket. The lot is staffed 24/7, so an early or late-night return isn't a problem. An early return means your stay no longer matches your reservation, and days outside your reserved dates are charged at $20 per day. If you know before you arrive that your trip will be shorter, change your departure date on Manage Booking so your reservation matches your stay.
