Blue Grass Airport Now Offers Free Parking for First 30 Minutes

Lexington, KY – Blue Grass Airport is pleased to announce it will now provide individuals with 30 minutes of free parking in its short-term and long-term parking facilities. Individuals assisting departing and arriving passengers now have the opportunity to meet their party inside the terminal or can wait in the airport’s convenient parking facilities at no charge for the first half hour.

"The airport is continuously seeking to add new customer conveniences," said Michael Gobb, executive director at Blue Grass Airport. "Providing 30 minutes of free parking will give customers the opportunity to assist their family and friends at the ticket counter and in the baggage claim area."

Individuals waiting for arriving passengers also have the option of using the airport’s new Cell Phone Waiting Lot, located on the driver’s right side upon entering the airport property via Terminal Drive. This lot contains spaces designated for "Cell Phone Waiting." Drivers must remain in their vehicle at all times and can then pull up to the terminal curb when their party is at the curb and ready for active loading.

"We realize that when visiting the airport, individuals enjoy greeting passengers upon arrival and assisting them with their luggage," said Gobb. "By offering 30 minutes of free parking and the use of the Cell Phone Waiting Lot, we hope visitors and residents of central Kentucky will experience that special hospitality that makes Blue Grass Airport unique."

To ensure the safety of passengers and provide enhanced security, Blue Grass Airport only permits active passenger loading and unloading in front of the terminal.
