History

Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) opened in 1928 and was originally named Newark Metropolitan Airport, then changed to Newark International Airport. It wasn’t until 2002 that the airport added “Liberty” to its name to reference the Statue of Liberty seven miles to the east and to honor the victims of the September 11th, 2001 terrorist attacks.

Parking Near EWR

Because Newark Airport is one of the busiest in the country, Newark Airport parking can be a hassle. There are currently three lots for daily parking, two lots for short-term parking, and one lot for long-term parking. Each type of parking is priced differently and especially when it comes to long-term parking, can get expensive.

With our EWR parking facility, you won’t have to worry about finding a parking space or having to lug your belongings across the lot. With our 24/7 shuttles, you’ll be dropped off and picked up right at your terminal, so no matter what time your flight arrives or departs at, you’ll have a ride.
