Select your date and time, then choose from multiple convenient parking locations. Must be booked 24 hours in advance.





Please Note: Bookings within 24 hours are not allowed.

ParkRDU offers “contactless” technology that allows guests to pay for parking without interacting with a cashier. Guests should book parking at least 24 hours in advance using RDU’s online booking system. The entrance gate opens with a QR code; and a license plate reader automatically opens the gate at exit. There are also credit card scanners at every exit lane that allow guests to pay with mobile apps, while pay-on-foot kiosks allow guests to pay with their smart phones and watches. Guests may choose to park without booking parking online.

Cash is no longer accepted as a payment option at RDU’s parking facilities. All major credit cards are accepted at drive-up pay stations and pay-on-foot self-service kiosks. Guests without cards may use one of the ReadySTATION® kiosks available in Terminal 1, Terminal 2, or the parking office located at the Airport Operations Center.

By going cashless, your ParkRDU experience fits smoothly into your next travel day:

  • Contactless payment: fewer touchpoints for smart and safe travel
  • Reduced wait times: exiting through the pay stations is a breeze
  • Effortless online booking: save even more time by confirming your parking in advance

Thank you for choosing ParkRDU.
