Indicative band Roughly $12–$40/day — a coarse tier band by FAA hub size, not a live per-lot quote. Real prices vary by lot, day and demand. Band vintage: 2026-06. Check the airport's official page for current per-lot rates.
CRITICAL CAVEAT: The figures below ($12–$40 per day) represent an indicative coarse tier band based on FAA large-hub classification as of mid-2026 and are NOT live per-lot quotes. Actual parking rates at DCA vary significantly by lot type (economy, garage, valet), day of week, season, and real-time demand. Rates also change periodically. Travelers must consult the official DCA website or contact the airport directly for current per-lot pricing and availability before arrival.
Economy and long-stay parking at DCA typically costs less per day than close-in daily or garage options because they sacrifice convenience for price. Economy lots sit farther from terminals, requiring shuttle service, while garage and valet parking offer immediate access and premium amenities. This proximity-based pricing structure is standard at major airports: the closer and more convenient the spot, the higher the daily rate. Passengers choosing distant economy parking accept longer walk or shuttle times in exchange for lower total cost, especially beneficial for multi-day stays where the per-day savings compound.
