Airport parking technology concept
COLUMBIA, SC – Columbia Metropolitan Airport (CAE) will implement parking rate changes starting Wednesday, May 1, 2024 in an effort to facilitate new parking features and maintain its parking facilities.
The cost for parking in the Surface Parking Lot will rise from $10 to $12 per day. Meanwhile, rates in the Garage Parking Lot will increase from $14 to $17 per day. These changes do not apply to pre-booked parking reservations made before May 1, 2024, which will be honored at the original transaction rate.
“Two years ago, we invested in a parking guidance system in the parking garage and that feature continues to be one our passengers appreciate and find helpful in locating open parking spaces,” said Mike Gula, CAE’s President & CEO. “The revenue generated from this increase will go to additional enhancements like this one, making our passenger’s overall parking experience as easy and convenient as possible.”
In recent months, CAE launched ParkMobile, a contactless parking management system available across both the Surface and Garage Parking Lots. Customers can download this mobile application from the App Store and save it on their device. Inside the app, users upload credit card information which is automatically charged upon entry into a parking lot. After the trip, the app sends a QR code to the user’s device, confirming that payment has been cleared. This QR code is then used to exit the parking lot. The application also records all past transactions and receipts for future reference.
With the revenue from the price changes, certain upgrades to CAE’s parking facilities will continue, including:
Handicap parking will remain free for the first day with valid credentials, while subsequent days will be charged at the regular rate of the selected lot.
