General Parking Information
There are several parking options at O'Hare International Airport ranging from valet service adjacent to the domestic terminals to long-term/economy parking. This page is designed to provide information so you can determine which lot best suites your travel needs. Rate information for each lot is available here and descriptions of the lots are below. As you approach the Airport, signs on the area roadways will guide you to the parking lots. Valet, hourly, or daily parking is located adjacent to the domestic terminals (Lots A, B, and C), while long-term/economy parking is located along Bessie Coleman Drive and at the southern corner of Mannheim and Zemke Road (Lots E and F). Hourly parking is available in the D Lot adjacent to International Terminal 5.
Main Parking Garage
The Main Parking Lot consists of a six story garage and two outdoor lots located adjacent to the Domestic Terminals (Terminals 1, 2, and 3). All levels of the Garage make up Lot A. The two outdoor lots are Lots B and C. The Main Parking Garage and lots are designed for easy walking access to the terminals. These lots are recommended for parking of short duration (less than three hours) or daily parking when close access to the terminal is preferred. These lots are not recommended for extended overnight stays.
For those briefly visiting the terminal, parking in the Main Parking Garage is available for one hour or less for $2 or less than 3 hours for $5. The daily rate for the first floor of the Main Parking Garage is $53 on week days and $51 on weekends. The daily rate for the Main Parking Garage floors 2 through 6 and the outdoor lots (Lots B and C) is $33 on weekdays and $31 on weekends.
Parking Lot D is adjacent to International Terminal 5 and has a daily rate of $53 on week days and $51 on weekends. Similar to the Main Parking Garage, Lot D is intended for brief visits to the terminal or short stays that require close access, but not recommended for extended overnight stays.

Long Term Parking
Lots E and F are located east of O'Hare International Airport along Bessie Coleman Drive and at the southeast corner of Mannheim and Zemke Road. Lot G is temporarily closed. These lots are recommended for long-term use with rates ranging between $9 and $19 per day. Lot F provides the most economical on-airport parking with a rate of $9 per day. For a detailed list of parking rates including hourly rate information click here.
Easy access to and from Lots E and F is provided free of charge through the Airport Transit System (ATS) which makes stops at each terminal and Lot E. There is no need to walk a long distance between your car and the ATS, because shuttle buses routinely pick up and drop off passengers at designated bus shelters throughout Lots E and F. The bus shuttles transport passengers to and from the ATS 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for free.
Valet Parking
No time to park? Valet parking is available in the Main Parking Garage for Terminals 1, 2, and 3. Pull into the garage and follow the signs for Valet Parking. Designated areas for your airline or Terminal 1, Terminal 2, or Terminal 3 are marked. The daily rate for Valet Parking is $48 for weekdays and $46 for Saturdays and Sundays. Specific hourly rates are available here.
