Palm Springs Airport offers extra parking and shuttle service for Christmas rush

Starting today, Palm Springs International Airport is offering extra parking and terminal shuttle service to help handle the Christmas travel rush.
The airport’s Economy Lot on Kirk Douglas Way will open at 4:30 a.m., and parking is $10 a day for overnight travelers. Free shuttle transportation is available from the lot to the main terminal from 4:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily through Christmas day, city spokeswoman Amy Blaisdell said.
Blaisdell said the airport is opening the lot to accommodate an increase in visitors to Palm Springs during Christmas.
She said travelers should arrive at least 90 minutes before their flights to allow enough time to park, check in and go through security.
The airport is at 3400 E. Tahquitz Canyon Way. For information, go to www.palmspringsca.gov.
