Air travelers in the San Francisco Bay Area can find cheaper long-term parking at East Bay BART stations.
Air travelers can now find cheaper long-term parking in the San Francisco Bay Area—at transit stations. In addition to offering gridlock-free transportation to the San Francisco and Oakland airports, 26 Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) stations in the East Bay have begun providing parking spaces. The charge is $5 a day.
Reservations can be made up to six months in advance. You can make a reservation with your credit card and print out a parking permit at www.bartparking.com [3].
If BART doesn't fit your needs, you should keep in mind that SkyPark offers AAA members a discount at San Francisco International Airport as does Expresso at Oakland International.
