Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport has its own parking facilities, but there are also several off-site options within easy reach that tend to offer far cheaper parking deals.

Located roughly halfway between the major cities of Dallas and Fort Worth, Dallas/Fort Worth Airport is one of the busiest airports anywhere in the world. It currently costs $24 per day for terminal parking, and long term parkers will have to pay $168 per week. However, by booking at an alternative facility near to the airport you’re likely to save an impressive 40-60% on parking rates at DFW. We’ve picked out 3 of the best off-airport options for short or long term parking near Dallas Airport, all of which offer a shuttle service to and from the airport.
Motel 6
Situated 2.8 miles from the airport, this facility offers uncovered self-parking for rates starting at $3.75 per day. Open 24/7, there’s a free airport shuttle service that runs every 40 minutes between the hours of 3.30am and 2am, with a journey time of around 10 minutes depending on traffic. At this car park, you also have up until the minute your reservation begins to cancel your parking and still claim a full refund.
DFW Airport Marriott
Located on the grounds of a Marriott hotel, this car park is 3 miles from the airport and provides cheap parking for prices of $5.75 per day and upwards. Amenities include a complimentary shuttle service that transports passengers and their luggage to and from the airport around every 30 minutes. The facility is open 24/7 and, as with our previous recommendation, you can cancel your booking up until the moment it begins and still get a 100% refund.
Embassy Suites by Hilton Dallas
Also three miles from the airport, the parking lot at Embassy Suites by Hilton Dallas is open from 6am to 10.30pm, Monday to Sunday. Here, vehicle owners can make use of outdoor self-parking for rates starting at $5.95 per day. There’s also a shuttle service for all guests which runs every 30 minutes during the car park’s opening hours, plus on-site staff and the option for remote parking extensions to your booking through a digital service.
