MIA Parking: Garage Rates, Valet, Park and Ride, Cell Lot

MIA ties each garage to a group of concourses.

• Dolphin Garage (North): Concourses D and E. Use it for American Airlines, British Airways and Qatar Airways.
• Flamingo Garage (South): Concourses E to J. Use it for all other airlines.
• Ibis Garage: Concourses J and H, also listed for all other airlines.

MIA's parking page still names JetBlue for the Dolphin Garage, but JetBlue is not in MIA's airline directory, so check your airline's concourse first. MIA's Departures page names only American and Qatar for the Dolphin North Garage.

A moving walkway on the 3rd level connects the garages and terminals. Your ticket is stamped with the garage, level and aisle, so keep it to find your car later. The garages also have a guidance system: a green light over a space means open, red means taken, and digital signs show open spaces on each floor.

MIA's parking page offers a rewards program for people who park at MIA. Details are on the airport's site.

Turo says its hosts can hand off cars at the Dolphin Garage, the Flamingo Garage and the MIA Economy Park and Ride (Turo announcement, January 31, 2023). Confirm the meeting point in the Turo app before you book.

These are the rates on miami-airport.com as of October 9, 2026. Rates change, so check the airport page before you go.

You can pre-pay for a space in the Dolphin or Flamingo garages up to a year ahead. You get an email with a QR code. Scan it at the entrance and again at the exit. Do not pull a ticket.

You can change or cancel up to 24 hours before your reservation, but the reservation fee is not refundable (MIA lists it as 2.99, without a currency symbol). If you stay past your reserved time, you may pay the difference at the exit. Press the call button if you need help from an attendant.

Valet is the closest parking at MIA. It is on the Departures level (level 2) of the Dolphin and Flamingo Garages. The stay limit is 20 days. Call 305-876-0118 with questions.

You can pay by Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, Apple Pay or Samsung Pay.

The park-and-ride lot on MIA's page is at 1350 NW 45 Ave, Miami, FL 33126. It has 350 spaces, though availability varies. A shuttle runs to and from the terminals 24 hours a day. MIA does not list how often it runs, so leave a cushion.

MIA says vehicles over 7 feet can use the Economy Park and Ride lot or the High-Vehicle area next to the Dolphin Garage.

MIA's page also lists theparkingspot.com as an off-airport option. Check its rates and shuttle on its own site.

Garages take Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover, debit cards from Visa and MasterCard, Apple Pay, Samsung Pay and Google Pay. SunPass is not accepted.

Cash works only at select Quick Pay stations: Dolphin Garage Level 3, Flamingo Garage Level 3, and the Arrivals level inner loop between Terminals E and G. Cash is not taken at the exit lanes.

Lost your ticket? Go to the exit and press the phone icon on the kiosk. To get a receipt, email MIAparking@spplus.com with your full name, the date and time, and the last 4 digits of your card.

The cell phone lot has 60 free spaces for private, not-for-hire vehicles waiting for an arriving passenger. It is just off LeJeune Road and NW 31 Street.

From the north, take I-95 South to State Road 112 West, exit at SR 953 LeJeune Road South, and turn right at the first signal. From the south, take SR 826 or the Florida Turnpike north to SR 836 East, exit at LeJeune Road North, and turn left at 31st Street.

MIA lists no time limit for the lot. Call MIA parking at 305-876-7536 if you plan a long wait.

The Ibis Garage has 50 ChargePoint ports on Levels 1 to 5, open 24/7. Charging costs $0.38 per kWh. You start and pay with the ChargePoint Driver App, a smartphone, Apple Watch or a credit card. There are also charging spaces in the Dolphin Garage valet area on the Departures level.

MIA says EV owners must use only the ChargePoint stations in the Ibis Garage.

MIA says charging costs about $0.11 per mile at that rate, and ChargePoint offers 24/7 customer support.

Accessible spaces are on the ground level and Level 3 of the Dolphin, Flamingo and Ibis Garages, on the ground level and Level 2 of Park 1, and on the ground level of the High Vehicle area and the Economy Park and Ride lot.
