What to Expect at PreFlight RDU:
1) The entrance for PreFlight RDU is on Lumley Road between Route 70 and the north entrance to the airport. The only time you will be asked to present a reservation is when the "FULL" sign is displayed. This location usually only fills during Holidays. If you made a reservation and the "FULL" sign is out, don't worry we saved a space for you! Otherwise, pull into the entrance lane and stop at the cashier booth and the cashier will direct you where to park depending on your choice of parking service (if you want to have your car washed while you are away please advise the cashier at this point). We have two types of parking:
Covered Self Park ($9.95) - Drive straight ahead to the entrance of covered parking and insert the white ticket that you just pulled from the ticket dispenser into the ticket scanner. Retrieve the ticket after it is processed and park anywhere in the covered parking area. Please wait at your vehicle as one of our shuttle buses will pick you and your luggage up right at your vehicle within five minutes. Be sure to get a red & white locator slip from the driver. The red & white locator slip will have your parking space identified and directions on where to get picked up upon your return.
Uncovered Self Park ($8.50) - The cashier will give you a specific row to park in. Please proceed to that row following the directional signs on the lot. You may park anywhere on that row. Please note, if you park in an area other than the row the cashier directed you to the shuttle may not be able to find you and your service will be delayed. Please wait at your vehicle as one of our shuttle buses will pick you and your luggage up right at your vehicle within five minutes. Be sure to get a red & white locator slip from the driver. The red & white locator slip will have your parking space identified and directions on where to get picked up upon your return.
2) Upon your return (we hope you had a great trip) and after you have collected your luggage proceed to the area dedicated for shuttle pick-up for your terminal. Please refer to your red slip for further directions. A PreFlight shuttle will arrive to this area within five minutes. Please give your red slip to the driver. The driver will bring you back to your vehicle.
3) Once you have reached your vehicle follow the signs to the cashier exit located at the entrance plaza. Please have your white ticket, coupon, vouchers, and payment ready. Please note: coupons and vouchers must be presented to the cashier before the transaction is completed to receive the discount. Thanks for parking with PreFlight.
