Long term airport parking has gone up

[macuu222]

Just found out that airport parking rates at Kona and Hilo airports have gone up as of Mid December from $10.00 a day to $15.00 a day. Was wondering if anyone knows a long term parking solution (besides leaving our car at home and having friends drive us) that's outside the airport that has better rates (Hilo or Kona)?

I rent a car from Enterprise (not from the airport location). I can usually get it for about $30-$40 for the day including taxes. Easier than relying upon friends to drive you around and if your flight comes in late or early, its another advantage.

How long term?.. places like stuffit mini storage will store vehicles, they have monthly rates... but I don't know about daily.

Mini storage definitely cheaper... even if you payed the whole month.

Add taxi cost - it's a bit of a hike walking, but at least you can drop the family off first. I tend to travel with just a big backpack which makes it much easier to take bus or hitch hike and store car at home.

I thought they had a weekly rate? $15/day is robbery.

I called the number at http://www.ifly.com/hilo-international-a...rt-Parking
No weekly rates. $180/month plus some sort of one-time $25 fee for a pass-card.

I was gone to the mainland for 3 months once and had long term parking. 500 dollars to get out of the lot! I told them cheaper to buy another car! They were not amused.

Shipman self storage is less than 35.00 per month for vehicle. Mine is on a month to month basis. Take a taxi from there to the airport for another 30.00 including a tip.
