Disabled Services
Persons with disabilities who have a valid disabled license plate or placard may park in the designated spaces in any lot of their preferance at the posted rate. Shuttle buses are lift-equipped; however, no shuttle bus service is provided in the hourly parking areas and parking garage.
Full Lots
Current lot availability is broadcast on 530 AM for a five mile radius around the airport and is posted on overhead signs that are automatically updated. Due to the fact that parking changes occur quickly, availability is not posted online.
Long Term Parking
Need to park more than a day or two? At Sacramento International Airport, you may park in the lot you prefer for your extended trips at the posted rate rather than park in a designated “long term” parking lot.
