Premium Reserved Parking — The Best Spots in the House, No More Circling for a Spot

The Short-Term Parking Garage now offers Premium Reserved Parking on Level 2, featuring front-row spaces located just steps from the terminal entrance. These highly desirable spots put travelers only moments from check-in and security, ideal for business travelers, families, and anyone who values time and convenience.

With limited premium inventory available daily, travelers are encouraged to reserve early to secure the closest parking experience BTR has ever offered.

Guaranteed Garage Parking

Guests can now reserve general parking spaces within the Short-Term Garage, ensuring a space is waiting upon arrival. During holidays, LSU game weekends, and peak travel seasons, this option provides invaluable peace of mind.

Covered Economy Lot Reservations

For budget-friendly travelers seeking protection from Louisiana’s heat and weather, BTR now offers reserved covered parking spaces in the Economy Lot. This new option combines affordability with added comfort while still guaranteeing a spot.

EV Charging — Drive Up and Plug In

Electric vehicle drivers can take advantage of EV charging stations located on Levels 1 and 2 of the Short-Term Parking Garage in designated EV spaces.
