The majority of airports offer a variety of options when it comes to parking. Generally, there are hourly, economy, daily, and weekly rates. There are even options that are much more convenient but considerably more costly, such as valet parking.

• The first tip when it comes to saving money on airport parking is to call ahead or check the website of your airport to make sure you know the rates for parking and the exact location of either the garage or parking service you intend to use.

• Another important tip is to make sure that you keep your parking ticket. Some airports charge for losing it. Your ticket can be useful in helping you remember where you have parked as well. Some individuals find that it is easier to leave their parking ticket in the car that is being parked to avoid losing it.

In this case, it is very important to record where you parked in a cell phone or PDA in order to make sure that you do not get lost.

*Editor's note: you could also email it to someone in case you lose your cell phone.

• A big help during the holidays is planning for delays. Keep in mind that many people are departing from the same location at the same time. This means there will be less and less parking space available. The holidays also mean more traffic on the roadways and especially in the airport and the airport parking garages.

The holidays are also one of the most prominent times of the year for weather delays, so be sure to keep this in mind when planning for your departure.

• Planning for parking in the farthest away space is a good way to make sure you are not at risk of missing your flight.

• Staying informed is one of the best ways to save time and money, and to prevent frustrations when traveling. Knowing which airports have shuttle service is an important piece of information to consider. This information is often found online, but can even be found by phoning the ticketing desk prior to your departure.

From the ticketing desk, you can also get information on what an expected wait time might be. Make sure that you are calling the local ticketing office and not a general information line to get specific details relevant to your holiday plans. Make sure to have pertinent information such as your flight number, travel time, and date handy in case the airport asks for this information.

Airport parking voucher codes can be another way to make your trip easier. This is a great way to save money and know exactly what to expect from airport parking.

If you follow all these tips and stay on top of things, you can prevent a lot of frustration when traveling on holidays.
