How the shuttle works
How the free shuttle works, step by step: hours, frequency, the pickup bay at each terminal, and what to do if you land late.
Orlando International Airport (MCO)
Parking at MCO costs $14 per 24 hours in the economy lots, $24 in the terminal garages, $32 for a reserved space in Garage C and $35 with curbside valet. Those are the airport's own posted rates. Below: every official option, what 1 to 14 days really add up to, and how an off-site lot compares.
Short answer: the cheapest official option is an economy lot at $14 per 24 hours, with a free shuttle that runs 24/7. The garages next to the terminals cost $24 per 24 hours. Off-site with us, parking starts at $5.99 a day plus 6.5% tax, and a 7-day stay comes to $37.96 with tax (at the standard daily rate, before any date-specific or high-demand pricing).
Airport prices can change. We checked every MCO number on this page on September 25, 2026 and link each one to its official page.
From $5.99/day + 6.5% sales tax · free shuttle every 30 min, 6 AM – 11 PM.

Daily rates are easy to compare, but the trip total is what you actually pay. Here is each MCO option multiplied out, next to our live total with tax.
| Option | 1 day | 3 days | 7 days | 14 days |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Garages A & B, Terminal Top | $24 | $72 | $168 | $336 |
| Garage C (drive-up) | $24 | $72 | $168 | $336 |
| Garage C reserved (Level 4) | $32 | $96 | $224 | $448 |
| Economy lots | $14 | $42 | $98 | $196 |
| Surface lots (E-PASS / SunPass Plus) | $20 | $60 | $140 | $280 |
| MCO curbside valet | $35 | $105 | $245 | $490 |
| Global Park Fly Tax included | $6.38 | $19.14 | $37.96 | $75.91 |
Every stay above fits inside MCO's limits: 45 days in the garages, surface lots, reserved spaces and valet, 90 days in the economy lots. We leave out MCO's hourly charges for a part-day at the end of a stay, so a real MCO bill can be a little higher than shown.
Nothing hidden: this is exactly how our booking system adds it up at our standard rate of $5.99 a day.
| Stay | Parking | Long-stay discount | Subtotal | Tax (6.5%) | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 day | $5.99 | — | $5.99 | $0.39 | $6.38 |

| 14 days | $83.86 | −$12.58 | $71.28 | $4.63 | $75.91 |
Long-stay discountStays of 7 days or more get 15% off the parking subtotal, before tax. It is applied automatically, and the totals above already include it where it applies.
What the difference adds up toOver 7 days, our total with tax is $60.04 less than an MCO economy lot and $130.04 less than a terminal garage, at the posted rates.
The daily rate is only part of the story. Payment rules, opening hours and height limits decide which options you can actually use.

HolidaysFor the 2025–26 winter holidays, MCO advised travelers to arrive 3 hours early and noted that parking reservations are limited at peak times. MCO press release
Off-site parking is not always the better deal. Here is where MCO's own lots win, worked out from the rates above.
MCO's two cell phone lots are free while you wait for an arriving passenger (no overnight parking). The garages give you the first 20 minutes free, and the economy lots charge $5 from 11 minutes to 3 hours. We charge a minimum of one day, which is $6.38 with tax. For anything under 3 hours, the airport is cheaper.
One day with us costs $6.38 with tax, $7.62 less than a day in an MCO economy lot. But you also wait for our shuttle, which runs every 30 minutes, and then ride to the terminal: about 3–5 miles by road, roughly 10 minutes in normal traffic, each way. If you fly out and back the same day with little slack, a garage next to the terminal buys you real time.
Our last airport pickup is around 10:30 PM. After that our shuttle does not run: you take a rideshare or taxi to the lot, and a pickup outside shuttle hours is not guaranteed unless you arranged it before you flew. A self-serve after-hours return, with the key box, has to be booked at least 24 hours ahead. MCO's economy shuttles run 24/7, and a garage car is a short walk away.
For a weekend, a week or two weeks, the gap grows with every day. At our standard rate, 14 days with us come to $75.91 with tax; the same 14 days in an MCO economy lot are $196 at the posted rate. For longer trips, see our long-term parking guide.
Global Park Fly is an independent off-airport lot at 3719 McCoy Rd, Orlando, FL 32812, about 3–5 miles by road, roughly 10 minutes in normal traffic from the terminals. When our counter is open, you hand your keys to our valet, we park your car in our outdoor lot, and our free shuttle takes you to your terminal.
MCO's posted rates, checked September 25, 2026: $14 per 24 hours in the economy lots, $20 in the surface lots (E-PASS or SunPass Plus only), $24 in Garages A, B and C and Terminal Top, $32 for a reserved space in Garage C, and $35 for curbside valet. MCO's parking pages do not say whether the posted rates include tax. Off-site with us, parking starts at $5.99 a day plus 6.5% sales tax.
At the posted rates, 7 days cost $98 in an economy lot, $140 in a surface lot, $168 in a garage, $224 reserved in Garage C and $245 with curbside valet. With us, 7 days come to $37.96 including tax, at the standard daily rate, before any date-specific or high-demand pricing.
The economy lots: North Park Place, South Park Place and West Park, at $14 per 24 hours with a free shuttle that runs 24/7. Each lot serves different terminals, so check before you drive. If you are only waiting for an arriving passenger, the two cell phone lots are free.
MCO lists a transponder-only rule for its surface lots (Atlantis, Discovery and Endeavour, next to the Train Station): they take E-PASS, SunPass Plus (SunPass with Easy Pay) only. For the payment options at any other MCO lot, check its own page, linked in the table above.
MCO's parking pages do not say whether the posted rates include tax. Our prices are shown before tax: 6.5% sales tax is added at checkout, and every Global Park Fly total on this page already includes it.
No. MCO's curbside valet at the departure curbs of Terminals A, B and C is open 6:00 am to 11:00 pm. It costs $4 for the first 20 minutes, $1 per 20 minutes up to 3 hours, then $35 per 24 hours.
For a full day or more, yes at current prices: one day with us is $6.38 including tax, against $14 in an MCO economy lot and $24 in a garage. For a stay under 3 hours, MCO's economy lots charge $5 and the cell phone lots are free while you wait for a passenger, so the airport is the better deal.
