New Valet Parking Operation to Open at KCI Airport on June 1 |
The City of Kansas City, Mo., Aviation Department is happy to announce new valet parking near Kansas City International Airport. On June 1, Park Air Express will begin presenting travelers with the unique service combination not currently offered at KCI’s other parking areas. Park Air Express also will offer three days of free parking during June.
The facility will be run by KCI’s existing parking operator, Standard Parking, under the nationwide Park Air Express brand. Valet parking will compliment Garage, Circle and Economy parking currently offered at KCI. The venture fulfills the City’s effort to maximize the use of airport land and offer superior customer service to citizens and visitors.
Travelers merely need to pull to the covered entryway and get out of their cars. Trained valet drivers will park the car while customers are taken by shuttle to their gate. When returning to KCI terminals, customers are taken to the Park Air Express Facility where their car will be waiting for them – cooled down in the summer and warmed up in the winter. The facility features 1,200 uncovered spaces at $7 per day and about 100 covered spaces for $11 per day. It also houses a comfortable customer service building where travelers can linger inside should there be a wait for the next shuttle bus. Complimentary benefits will be offered such as luggage assistance, newspaper, coffee and bottled water, WiFi, automatic bill pay and a frequent parker rewards program.
To introduce travelers to its superior service, Park Air Express is offering three days of outdoor parking at no cost with no strings attached. Park Air Express is located at 11500 N.W. Prairie View Road, west of I-29 off Exit 12 (112th St.). For more information, visit www.parkairexpress.com.
The Kansas City Airport System is an Enterprise Fund Department of the City of Kansas City, Mo., and is supported wholly by airport user charges. No general tax fund revenues are used for the administration, promotion, operation, or maintenance of the airports in the system. Visit www.flykci.com for more information.
