Yes, for almost any trip longer than a few hours. At Newark Airport Long Term Parking (NALTP), reserving online drops our published rate from $35 to $30 per day, and LTP Club members who reserve pay from $18.99 per day, before taxes and fees. The Port Authority’s lots at Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) work the same way, with prebooking saving $5 to $20 per day. A reservation also guarantees your space on busy dates. And because NALTP reservations are free to make and fully refundable until they start, there is very little downside to booking early.
We have operated off-airport parking two to three minutes from EWR since 1994, and because we offer three price tiers, we see what booking ahead is worth every day. This guide shows what reserving online actually saves at Newark, what a reservation does and doesn’t cover, and whether to book directly or through a parking app. If you already know you want to book, our Newark Airport parking reservations page walks you through it in about a minute.
We offer three ways to pay. The difference between them is simply how far ahead we know you are coming.

Here is the same comparison for a typical one-week trip. The pattern holds everywhere at EWR. The drive-up price is the highest price you can pay for a given lot.
| Where you park | Drive-up per day | Reserved per day | You save per day | You save per week |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NALTP, reserve online | $35.00 | $30.00 | $5.00 | $35.00 |
| NALTP, LTP Club | $35.00 | $18.99 | $16.01 | $112.07 |
| P6 Economy lot | $35 | as low as $30 | $5 | $35 |
| P4 Daily garage | $60 | as low as $40 | $20 | $140 |
| Terminal A garage | $65 | as low as $50 | $15 | $105 |
| Terminal B and C garages | $70 | as low as $50 | $20 | $140 |
Two things are worth noticing. First, the savings grow with every day you’re away, so the longer the trip, the more reserving matters. Second, during peak periods the Port Authority adds a drive-up surcharge at its lots and warns that drivers without a prebooked space may not find one. We cover that in detail in our guide to parking during peak travel seasons at Newark Airport.
A prepaid reservation holds a space for you for the dates you choose. We’ll park walk-in customers when we have room, but on holiday weekends and summer Fridays that isn’t something to count on. Knowing your space is waiting takes the guesswork out of a travel morning, and you won’t need a backup plan.
We take payment in full when you reserve, so the rate you book is the rate you pay. Since our prices move with demand, booking weeks ahead of a busy date usually gets you a better number than booking the night before.
There’s no reservation fee or holding fee. Reservations are fully refundable up to the start date and time, and you can cancel yourself with the link at the bottom of your confirmation email. Refunds typically reach your card in three to five days.
We’re a paperless facility, so you don’t need to print anything. We look you up by last name, or LTP Club members scan in with the e-card in the NALTP app. Because a reservation is paid up front, checkout on your return is quicker too.
The drop-off and pickup times on your reservation are estimates, and we don’t hold you to them. If your flight is canceled and moved to the next day, we reopen your reservation at checkout, charge a canceled flight fee of 50 percent of the daily rate, and you use the same reservation the following day. If your flight is canceled outright, we charge that fee and refund the rest of your prepaid reservation.
Booking ahead solves most parking problems, but not all of them. Here’s the fine print, in plain language.
You can cancel for a full refund right up to the start date and time. After that, the reservation can’t be refunded, because we held that space for you and turned other drivers away.
We can’t accommodate many full-size pickups, large vans, extra-large SUVs, or vehicles modified to be wider than stock. These are turned away at the gate even with a reservation, so check the current vehicle list before you book.
Each interval starts at the time you park. Keep that in mind when you estimate your return time.
Parking apps and comparison sites are handy for seeing your options, and the price is sometimes the same as booking with us. The differences show up when something changes.
| What matters | Booking directly with NALTP | Booking NALTP through a third party |
|---|---|---|
| Cancelling or changing | Cancel yourself from your confirmation email, fully refundable until the reservation starts | You must cancel through the company you booked with, under its policy |
| Booking fees | No reservation or holding fee | Some platforms add a service fee, so compare the checkout total |
| LTP Club | Members book from their account and manage every reservation in one place | The booking lives in the other company’s account |
| Who helps if plans change | Our team, 24 hours a day | The booking company’s customer support |
If you do book through another site, save that company’s confirmation and contact details. Our team can’t cancel or refund a reservation we didn’t sell.
We’d rather you get this right than book something you don’t need.
For nearly every other trip, booking ahead costs less and removes a variable from your travel day.
It’s free, it unlocks the member rate, and new members get a free day of parking. Sign up first so your reservation is booked at the club price and shows up in your account.
For Thanksgiving and the December holidays, aim for three to four weeks ahead. For other busy weekends, two weeks is usually enough. Since reservations are refundable until they start, early is almost always better.
Pick the time you expect to pull in and the time you expect to be back. You don’t need to be exact, but a realistic estimate helps us plan shuttles and space.
Confirm your vehicle isn’t on the oversized list, and keep your confirmation email. The cancel link is at the bottom if your plans change.
Give us your last name or scan your app e-card at the gate. Aim to arrive about 10 minutes before you want to be at the terminal, and add time on peak days. Keep the card we hand you on the shuttle, because it has the number to call for your ride back.
Membership is free, so if you fly out of EWR even once a year, there’s little reason not to join.
In most cases, yes. At Newark Airport Long Term Parking, published rates start at $35 per day for walk-ins, $30 per day when you reserve online, and $18.99 per day for LTP Club members who reserve, before taxes and fees. The Port Authority’s own lots follow the same pattern. P6 Economy drops from $35 drive-up to as low as $30 prebooked, the P4 Daily garage from $60 to as low as $40, and the terminal garages from up to $70 to as low as $50.
No. There is no reservation fee or holding fee. You pay for the parking itself, in full, when you book.
Yes. Reservations with NALTP are fully refundable up to the start date and time of the reservation. Use the cancel link at the bottom of your confirmation email. Refunds usually take three to five days to appear on your card. After the reservation starts, it is no longer refundable.
No. The drop-off and pickup times on an NALTP reservation are estimates. We ask for them so we can plan, but we do not hold you to the exact times.
If your flight is canceled and moved to the next day, we reopen your reservation at checkout, charge a canceled flight fee of 50 percent of the daily rate, and you use the same reservation the next day. If your flight is canceled completely, we charge the canceled flight fee and refund the balance of your prepaid reservation.
Parking apps are useful for comparing options, and prices are sometimes the same. If you book NALTP through a third party, though, you have to cancel or change that reservation through the company you booked with, under its terms. Booking directly keeps your reservation, cancellation, and customer service in one place, and LTP Club members can manage the booking from their account.
As soon as your flights are set. For Thanksgiving and the December holidays, aim for three to four weeks ahead. For other busy weekends, two weeks is usually enough. Because NALTP reservations are refundable until they start, booking early carries little risk. For its on-airport lots, the Port Authority recommends prebooking at least 24 hours ahead.
For most people who fly out of Newark more than once a year, yes. Membership is free with no annual fee. Members reserve from $18.99 per day, get a free day of parking for joining, earn points toward free days on paid parking, and can use the NALTP app for express check-in and one-tap pickup requests.
