Southwest Florida Airport (RSW) Parking Rates

Where these numbers come from

Fort Myers has one of the simplest and cheapest official structures in this batch. The short-term garage is directly across from the terminal and has a $24 daily maximum. The long-term surface lot behind it is $11 per day at most, or $60 for a week, with a complimentary door-to-door shuttle. We read the airport page on 2026-09-30. No effective date was printed.

A week in the garage is 7 x $24 = $168. A week in the long-term lot at the daily maximum is 7 x $11 = $77, but the weekly rate brings it to $60, saving $17 more. Two weeks costs 14 x $24 = $336 in the garage, 14 x $11 = $154 at daily maximums, or 2 x $60 = $120 at weekly rates. The long-term lot thus saves $216 over the garage on a two-week trip if the weekly rate applies twice.

Partial weeks depend on how the lot bills them, which the page does not spell out. For a 10-day stay, 10 x $11 = $110 at daily maximums is the safe budget. If the gate applies $60 for the first 7 days plus $11 for each extra day, the total would be $60 + 3 x $11 = $93, but treat that as an estimate and confirm with the operator, ABM Parking, at 239-768-1818.

Compare three trip lengths. A 3-day trip is 3 x $11 = $33 in the long-term lot versus 3 x $24 = $72 in the garage, a $39 gap. A 7-day trip is $60 versus $168, a $108 gap. A 14-day trip is $120 versus $336, a $216 gap. The garage premium grows with every day, so it pays off mainly for very short stays where the free first 20 minutes and $3 first hour apply.

The garage has a separate short-stay ladder: the first 20 minutes are free, each following 20-minute block is $2, and the first hour is $3. A 40-minute pickup therefore costs $2, and a 2-hour meeting would exceed the ladder's published range, so the daily maximum of $24 is the reference. The garage is covered, and level 2 has an 8 foot 4 inch height restriction, which matters for tall vehicles.

Use the airport parking on-site vs off-site calculator to compare with private lots, though we show no off-site range because none was verified. For a contrasting high-cost garage, see Pittsburgh at $38 a day. For a nearby cruise-port trip with parking at the port, use the cruise parking calculator.
