Cheaper, best way to get to the PHX airport? |
Travel Info I need to get from Glendale to phx on Fri and coming back a week later on Sat. What is the cheapest way? Find a taxi? Make a reservation w a shuttle service? Drive there w my own car and pay for a parking spot there for a week? and if so, where is the cheapest place to park? Thnx! Travel Tips I'd agree that driving to Sky Harbor Airport and parking in the nearby East Economy Parking lot (about 1/2 mile away) is the best option! The East economy shuttle bus comes by every 7-10 minutes and drops you at the Terminals. Their parking fee is $7 a day, but has a maximum charge of only $20! You'd save plenty by not using a cab or the Super Shuttle Van. Red Line bus would be cheaper, but not easy with luggage and you'd have to transfer, at least, once to get to Glendale and or to board at the Metro Center stop.

Super Shuttle is probably the cheapest way to the airport. They will offer a round trip door-to-door shared ride for probably $20 each direction. Parking at the airport for a week can be a bit costly. There are places near the airport that will charge about $6/day, but they are off property. Airport garages will charge $20/day! If you can't hitch a ride from family / friend, I'd give Super Shuttle a look. The Red Line Bus can take you directly to the Airport. Just type in the start and final destination on http://www.valleymetro.org and it will tell you what buses you can take and what time it will come or you can also call the number for customer service for the bus. But I know that the Red Line bus can take one directly to the airport. It just costs $1.25 one way with a free transfer. A cab or shuttle service would be better if you have quite a bit of things to carry. If you can have someone drop you off at the airport, that would be nice too. My parents and I live in Glendale (different houses though). I've taken them to the airport (Sky Harbor) and dropped them off before. They've also taken their own car and left it there. My dad figured out how much it would cost to leave it there and it ended up being cheaper then taking a shuttle or taxi. I think it ended up being like $6 a day or something. Good luck!
