For many travelers, they simply cannot do without off-site airport parking. Often they prove to be cheaper than parking lots run by airports and online discounts and other conveniences make the option even more attractive. This article discusses a few quick ways - just twelve easy ways - you can be in the know when it comes to saving on airport parking.

Be updated on the latest offers. These parking sites, after all, are in tooth and nail competition with each other, and try to one-up the competition with attractive discounts or online specials.

For those who regularly use airport parking lots, you can always look for a parking operator that is well established near the airport area - there is a chance you could get a 50% discount simply by purchasing enough parking vouchers with your credit card, either online or via phone.

A lot of parking operators have different rates corresponding with each parking position. Check on the kinds of parking and rate differences. You stand to save close to $60 for one week's worth of parking.

Ask for rates depending on the length of stay. Because rates can be varied for different lengths of stay, you just might be able to get a better discount if you are parking for one week's rates as opposed to daily rates.

You stand to earn several privileges by being a member of a frequent user program. Yes, just like those frequent flier programs offered by the airlines.

If you are a member of Triple A, AARP or other organizations, the parking lots you use may offer you special discounts. In fact, AA members save between 10-20% on parking. Some sites even offer the service of picking up and dropping your car from the airport terminal.

Research - can't do without it whenever looking for a good deal of any kind - same applies with parking lots, as you want to compare rates, providers, facilities, etc. Be a smooth operator and astute shopper and get more bang for your buck.

Before you travel use the internet to check on daily and weekly parking offers. Such deals include discounted weekly rates, guaranteed rates and even free days - offers will always vary. Such offers can be taken advantage of through an online booking - you would then have to print out the page which contains the code, and present it to the parking lot cashier.

Special deals are a dime a dozen during holiday seasons such as Christmas. Many lots accept coupons and give away discounts offered by consumer products.

Often pre-booking parking can get you a saving of even 60% and more. Another source of sweet deals for parking would be hotels, so if they have such an offer, make use of these facilities.

Some travel agents who book flight tickets offer advice or coupons for parking at the point of exit and entry. Ask you agent when you book your flight.

As you can see, off site parking has more benefits than just ease of use and convenience.
