DETROIT - Just in time for the holidays, Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) has re-opened the 1,400-space Green Lot at a discounted, flat, daily rate of $8 effective Monday, Nov. 8.
This move comes less than five months after DTW dropped the daily rate in the Blue Deck from $16 to $10.
"Today's customers are looking for safe, convenient and inexpensive options for airport parking." said Matt McGowan Director of Landside Services for the Wayne County Airport Authority (WCAA).
The Green Lot, located on DTW's East Service Drive offers surface parking, free shuttle service and DTW's ticketless 1-2-3 Park! credit card program. There is also traditional cashier service.
"On-airport parking is primarily a convenience for our customers, but it also provides about 18 percent of the funds needed to operate and maintain the facility," continued Ms. Allen. "Since the airport functions without any local tax dollars, revenue from sources such as parking is a critical component of what keeps the airport operating."
