Frequently Asked Questions about Laredo International Airport
Laredo International Airport offers two convenient customer parking options. The Hourly/Daily Parking Lot is closest and just across the street from the Terminal while the Economy Parking Lot is a short walk to the Terminal. Customers may use either parking facility for both short-term and long-term stays (visit Parking Rates). Both parking facilities are completely automated, allowing customers to enter and exit each parking lot without interfacing with a cashier.

No cash payments are accepted by the parking equipment at the parking facility exits. Customers may also use a credit/debit card to pay their parking fee at the Pay-on-Foot machine.
