The price of parking at Denver International Airport increased Friday for the first time in three years. 

  • Parking at the garage will go from $5 to $7, and it will cost you $2 more to park there each day
  • Parking in the economy lot will be $1 extra per hour and also per day
  •  Short-term parking will also go up $1 an hour
  • Parking at 61st and Pena will go up $2 every 12 hours and $1 each day

This will be the first rate increase since September of 2019.

One area that won't see a price increase is in the Mt. Elbert and Pikes Peak shuttle lots. Those will remain at $8 per day with no hourly rate.

DIA officials say the reason for the increase was based on the demand and the increased costs to maintain and operate the lots.
