As Memorial Day weekend marks the unofficial start of summer, Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) is preparing for a busy travel season. Travelers are encouraged to use these tips to help navigate through the airport with ease.
Arrivals Made Easy
Use the Cell Phone Lot: Avoid traffic jams—wait for your party in the free Cell Phone Lot on Kitty Hawk Way, open daily from 6 a.m. to 1 a.m.
Smart Pickups: Coordinate pickup at the numbered columns in passenger pickup areas for faster connections.
Skip the Curb Hassle: Parking at the curb is not allowed. If your guests aren’t ready, use Short-Term Parking (first 15 minutes are free!) or loop back to the Cell Phone Lot.
Plan Ahead for Smooth Departures
Make Parking Reservations in Advance: What began as a pilot program is now a permanent feature! Travelers can reserve parking in advance at Terminal 1 (Level 2M) for $28/day and Terminal 3 (Level 1) for $21/day. Save time and reduce stress by booking your spot at parking.harryreidairport.com.
