Business Owner

You could say we’re «old hands» at the parking business, having started over 20 years ago with our very first parking facility at the Albany County Airport in Albany, New York. In the past 20 years, the travel industry has changed time and time again. We’re proud to say that we’ve learned a lot through the years, and we’ve grown to adapt to this ever-​changing industry.

One thing, however, has not changed and that’s good old-​fashioned customer service. We pride ourselves on taking good care of our customers and making sure their travel experience is as convenient and hassle-​free as possible.

We’ve built our business on this reputation, and it’s my personal pledge to you that you will experience the same excellence in customer service when you park with us

Great experience! Book online, take your receipt to the drive-​up window where they scan it, find an open space, and a shuttle will meet you there to load up your luggage. Very professional and courteous drivers and check-​in/​check-​out. I’ll definitely park here again!

Been using for years, I’ve never had a problem. I love the prepay online and the rewards program. With my weekly travel I have accrued about 6 days free parking.
Your staff is friendly. I never have to wait more then 5 minutes to get a shuttle once I arrive back at midway. Only time a year that it gets dicey is spring break. Jammed parking and I’ve seen people literally get in arguments once the shuttle arrives and there’s 30 people trying to get on a shuttle that holds half that.
My only issue is that your prices half have recently become more expensive then just using the parking garage at midway. I’ve been told that it’s actually cheaper by one of your drivers to just show up and pay once you leave as opposed to prebooking online. However doing that takes away my rewards perks so I won’t do that :). All in all keep up the good work!

This is an easy 5 stars for me. The parking is 10 bucks a day. You can set everything up online. And the service is fast and friendly! This is a very nice setup that I’ll use again when I fly out of Midway.
5 bill-​stars!

I highly recommend this service for parking your car long term for vacations etc. I love how they pick you up at your car and take you straight to the airport. Be sure to pay ahead online for the best rates. And on returning home the shuttle picks you up right outside your gate and drops you right back off at your car. Also, my car would’nt start after sitting for 5 days in the cold Chicago temps and they jumped it for us right away which was really appreciated after a long day of traveling and you just want to get home. Will definitely be my go to service when traveling.

*Fantastic service
*Complimentary shuttle to and from Midway — shuttle picked me up at my car within 10 minutes of parking and got me to the airport within 15 minutes. I texted a provided number when I Arrived at Midway for a ride, they were there waiting, was dropped off at my car within 20 minutes of leaving the airport!
*I paid extra to have my car indoors, the lot is secure and easy to find.
* We’ll be parking here every time we fly out if Midway, easier then a cab/​über from the city.

Clean, secure, well lit facility with frequent shuttles available. The shuttle picked us up where we were parked and gave us a yellow slip that had our parking location noted. Save this slip and they will drop you off at your car when you return. You can prepay online. You will want to search for coupon codes online. I found one for a free day with a few paid days. It is a short shuttle to Midway. All around excellent facility.

I live in the North Suburbs but fly out of midway mostly and have always taken cabs because i don’t know what to do with my car. but this place… is ALL the things. The reviews on here really helped me. I made my reservation online, which was so easy. I got there, found a spot and the shuttle was right behind me waiting for me. we picked up others who had just gotten there right next to their cars too. When i got home, it has snowed a lot (first snow of the season) and the guy 1.) dropped me off right at my car again which I loved and it’s what they do guys!!! 2.) he cleaned off my car for me!!! so wonderful!!! he did the all the windows which was nice because I was NOT dressed for snow coming home from Las vegas. I will now only park here when I fly out of midway! Great prices, great staff all around! Thank you!!!

The bus was awesome picking up from the airport. Not the most luxurious but it got what you needed done. They all communicate well utilizing technology appropriately.
The outdoor parking is not gravel too.
Would definitely use again.

Best shuttle ever!!! Andres Orellana, the assistant manager, is the nicest person on earth. Me and my family were late for our flight, so Andres got us to the airport very quickly. On my way home, his shuttle got to us very fast. We offered him a tip, but he told us it was okay and we should keep the money.

This is my go-​to parking spot for MDW. Über friendly service, on-​time, professional, and went above and beyond on multiple visits. Shuttle drivers are out of this world as they help load/​unload with blazing speed, and deliver you right to your car. Easy payment online and no hassle upon arrival and exit. All this at 5am and late at night (on my visits). This should be the standard for all parking lots.

OK… so usually I mainly review places to eat, but since Unilocal helped me find this great parking option near Midway, I thought I should add my voice to the listing for this business!
Booking online is totally the way to go; the rate is cheaper, and they just scan your pre-​paid receipt on entering and leaving the lot. On arriving in the lot, the attendant directs you to a parking spot, and then the shuttles pick you up at your car, the drivers write down your location for you, help unload luggage, and then you’re on your way to the airport! The lot seems very secure, and the drivers and attendants are very professional. Getting back to the lot from the airport is also very easy. A quick text to the company lets them know you’re in need of a shuttle so that they can make sure one is there waiting. There were two waiting when I arrived at the pickup spot in the ground transportation area, and so was able to board right away and was back at my car in minutes. Again, they take you right to your car and help with luggage.
I will definitely use them again the next time I’m flying out of Midway!

This parking facility worked out really well for my family. They were very friendly, and helpful. The bus driver was right there to pick us up and help us with our luggage quickly and we headed right to check in at Midway with plenty of time to catch our flight. When we returned late at night they were right there at the airport to take us right to our car. We were in and out in less than 10 minutes. We will definitely use them again for future trips.

We used them again in November 2014 for a week long trip. Great service and assistance. They are always fast picking us up and dropping us off. We will be using them again later in 2015. They are our go to parking for all of our trips out of Midway.

Yet another awesome experience! We booked our reservation online and it’s slightly cheaper.
The van picks you up from your parking spot when you arrive. Upon arriving, you can text or call to alert the bus to pick you up. We had zero waiting time as well!

Very professional. This is the first time I used these guys and I am quite happy.
I travel from Midway every few months and have been using Airways with a bad experience almost every time.
Midway Park Ride and Fly is the company to use. They are on time for the pickup and no waiting at door 4 for them as they always have a shuttle coming.
The drivers will take the bags from your trunk, load them onto the van and will do the same when returning to your car.
Don’t mess with poor service… This is the place to park your car!!!

I’ve parked here several times, and have always had a pleasant experiences. The attendants and drivers are always courteous and helpful. The shuttles are quick and always waiting for you when you return. The price is good and you can always find coupons online.
During my last parking experience, my car battery was dead upon arrival, and the staff were very helpful to give me assistance and get it started. They even cleaned the snow off my car.
Overall I have been very satisfied with my parking experiences here, and I will return every time I need to park at Midway.

Easy, quick, would definitely use again.
We pre-​paid online for a discount, zipped right in, and the shuttle driver followed us to our car and took us right away.
Made pleasant chitchat and got to the terminal in no time. Gave us a slip with our row/​space on it and instructions for when we got back.
Upon our return I called (you can also text) and they were waiting for us when we came out of baggage claim. Handled our luggage, took us back to the lot with one other couple, and dropped us off right in front of our car and put our suitcases in the trunk.
The shuttle itself is a little jankety (windows kept flying open when we accelerated) but hey, you’re in there for 5 minutes, no big deal.
No hassle, good prices, great service. If you gotta drive to Midway, this is the way to go.

Having flown out of Midway numerous times, I’ve never actually driven myself because I’ve usually been able to find a ride down this way, but on the last couple trips out, I’ve found myself flying at ridiculous times and therefore didn’t want to inconvenience anyone with having to drop me off before the butt crack of dawn or picking me up after midnight. Have no fear, Midway Park Ride & Fly is here! Ugh, that sounded better in my head…
For the low low rate of $ 10 bucks a day, you can leave your car in a fenced In lot, and the system is easy peasy. Book online and either print out your reservation or have your confirmation number handy when you show up at the gate. They’ll direct you to a section of the parking lot (if you’re parking outside, which I always do) where you find any empty spot and the magical Park Ride & Fly bus will come pick you up and help with baggage if needed. Hop on the bus and hold on to your hats, and before you know it, you’re getting dropped off at Midway. Ta da!
It goes without saying, you should really show up here with ample time before your flight, so that if the bus is told by dispatch to stick around and keep allowing passengers on the bus instead of leaving when you got on, you won’t find yourself silently cursing out the driver and/​or these other passengers who are really ruining your day by delaying you and nearly keeping you from making your flight because you showed up THAT late.
Before you get dropped off though, the driver will hand you a little ticket with their number on it, and when you return home, just text the number on there when you touch down, and when you walk out of Midway, they’re usually sitting there waiting for you. It’s simple, it’s easy, it’s cheap, a perfect companion to Midway. Be sure to sign up for their reward program to earn free parking!

Oh, I miss Wally Park. I fly out of Midway a lot, so I’m slowly trying to optimize the best way to drive there. Midway Park Ride & Fly has some strong virtues — good prices (but not quite as good as advertised), sensible parking system (you are directed to an open row where the shuttle can pick you up), and extremely helpful shuttle driver (they handle luggage and also help clear and/​or shovel your car out of the snow).
And yet it also isn’t super-​speedy. The location is a good two miles from the airport. They run the shuttles fairly full, so you can end up waiting for several pick-​ups and drop-​offs. And all of that helpfulness also means the driver’s spending a lot of time hauling stuff in and out of the shuttle and helping people with their cars. I think I’d prefer a less helpful driver who just drove.
Then again, I’ve been using Midway Park Ride & Fly during the depths of Chicago’s worst winter in recent memory, so maybe those aren’t ideal testing conditions.

Possibly the fastest airport shuttle ever.
Like, hold onto your butts fast.
Like, I think I could have gotten to Texas faster by taking this shuttle than my actual flight.
Like, there are no seat belts on the shuttle and I spent most of the ride already in midflight as we bulldozed over ice chunks and massive potholes.
The Basics: Pay online, self park, the super fast shuttle takes you to Midway, then when you come back, text their number and they’ll scoop you up after baggage claim.
If reserve your spot online (recommended) and you pay like 50 cents less a day at a rate of $ 9.75. I’ll take it. Decent-​ish deal.
Their lot is HUGE and they do have a covered indoor area that you can pay extra to park in, but it’s pretty much always booked solid. I parked outside because I’m cheap and I was a little worried about leaving my car unattended in the lot and all the snow and ice and crap, but when I got back three days after I’d parked it there, it was free of snow and in the same condition I left it.
The location is convenient with being in a mostly industrial area and just a minute or two off I-​55.
I don’t fly out of Midway often, but you’ll find me coming here again for all my short-​term south-​side airport parking needs.
