    This was my first time ever looking for prepaid parking at Chicago O'Hare airport. I was looking for something that was safe, reliable, and had a shuttle to the airport. Unfortunately, I did not realize that it would be really difficult to find a good quality parking garage that was reliable. The reviews are all over the place. I had some reservation about this parking lot, but it seemed like the best option. I was worried that there would be some problem with my online reservation. The following is a recap of my experience. I downloaded the app and set my reservation time with a pre-payment. Upon entering the garage, there was a problem with the power going out before I arrived. I did not know this and attempted to scan my barcode, and the machine would not take my reservation. I pressed the button for assistance and somebody came rather quickly. They explained to me that the system went down and they let me through the gate. I was nervous based on some of the other reviews I read. I took my car up to the second floor for the reservation I paid for. The most expensive floor is the first floor and the cheapest is the top floor that is uncovered. Upon entering the second floor, you have to scan your QR code to indicate where you are parking. Again, the machine would not take my barcode. I had to press for assistance and they assured me that it would not be a problem and they let me through the gate. Luckily, I had listened to the lady who gave me a printed ticket for entering. She told me to keep it, but I know a lot of people sometimes misplaced things, especially when they go on vacation. After parking, the elevators were not working and I had to lug my suitcase down two flights upstairs. It was only then that I realize that the power had gone out, and that some of the other customers were actually trapped in the elevator, which is why the elevators were not working. The shuttle driver was not very friendly nor did they help with my luggage. We waited for approximately 20 minutes and the bus took off to O'Hare airport. Make sure to get the note that tells you where the pick up point is. From my terminal it was a bit of a walk and I had to walk across and take the train to the next terminal. From there the bus was already waiting and it took approximately 15 minutes before taking off. We had one additional stop at another terminal and we arrive back at the parking structure. FYI as I was concerned about my reservation, not registering. I tried to call the national customer service number. There is no one answering the phone. Luckily the local number somebody picked up and again they reassured me. Everything would be OK with the reservation. When I got back to my car, the car was safe and sound. When I tried to check out the machine told me that I owed it 17 additional dollars. Luckily there was employees present and I told them what happened. Their initial response was did you park in the wrong area. I told them about the story above. They then took my reservation barcode, and the ticket that I was given on my first day. If I had lost that, I am assuming I would probably be paying out of my nose because they would not have any records of me entering the garage. I was able to leave without paying any additional money as my reservation included all of the time that I have parked my car there. A few days later, I checked the app and it was odd. It said that I was overdue checking out and would have to pay extra. I ignored this and eventually it disappeared from the app. Was this a stress-free experience no. Would I park here again maybe.

    Car Burglary Alert!! 4/10/24 - 4/17/24 Look for another place before they fix this Area. I parked for a business trip at Pre-Flight Ohare from April 10 - April 17, 2024. When I returned, to my surprise, my dash cam ( front and back) was gone. The center console and glove box had been molested. Luckily, there were no broken windows, but the skills of this criminal are unbelievable. I might have left it open when I left, But I double-checked my doors before leaving the facility. I parked on the second floor. See the attached location in the photo. The manager helped me call the police and get my contact information. I don't know what they are going to do with it. The police asked what happened, but no help. He even mentioned that there are only two cameras at the entrance. He didn't even get my information and explained that it happens a lot in the area and that they cannot cover it because of the size. The upsetting part is that you paid for a close parking lot and thought your car was safe, but the facility didn't do anything.

    I grab this parking reservation after after seeing a review from another yelper. I was booked at the place across the street blue sky. I read the reviews for Blue Sky Ohare and was horrified so I canceled immediately. It is not linked to the Blue Sky Parking out of Phoenix which I am used to, which is amazing. This location was easy to find. Parking was secure. I opted for rooftop parking. There was several precautions to keep your car safe. Shuttles were prompt. My return shuttle was tricky to figure out but I called and they walked me through it at 5am. Definitely will patronize this business again. Felt amazing to get my car and head home, not worrying about the Uber cost.

    Pretty crowded shuttle coming back from the airport. Around 1 P.M.

    Today was my second time using Preflight and once again I am very pleased with the services provided. I reserved my parking space through SpotHero and paid about $16 and some change for 1 day parking. If you reserve the basic rate of $15 a day you will have to park on the 4th floor. This is the top level and there is no rooftop covering your car. I really appreciate how simple preflight makes the process. When you arrive at the parking garage you press the button for a ticket. You're gonna scan this ticket for every level you pass through. This is how it knows what rate to charge you for. However, if you reserved your ticket online and already prepaid you'll go to the front desk and give them the white ticket you printed out when you arrived, as well as the parking reservation confirmation you made online. After they do this they will print you a receipt that will allow you to exit the garage without paying twice (since you already purchased the reservation online). I really love how preflight is 24/7, and I especially love how they always have someone at the front desk to answer phone calls (that is rare to find with parking garages). I never waited more than 10 minutes for a shuttle, and the staff is always extremely friendly and helpful. Once you are dropped off at the airport they also hand you a piece of paper explaining which door to go to once you come back from your trip. They will pick you up from O'hare at door 1, just follow signs for ground transportation as well as the red sign for shuttle center. You'll find it with little to no problem! The shuttles do get quite full so be mindful of this if you are concerned about COVID. This being said the shuttle does try to instill ways to social distance by having plastic dividers between some of the seats. So, I do appreciate their efforts and as more and more people get vaccinated and society starts to build herd immunity I'm sure it will only get more and more crowded. Which is a good thing! Nice to see people traveling again. Preflight is most likely the only shuttle service I'll use when I have to keep my car parked near O'hare. They are convenient, reliable, and helpful. I'm glad this business exists.

    How to charge ev at the lot? Can I leave it charging or do I have to charge when I am leaving?

    You can leave it charging during your trip. It’s a standard household outlet. You provide the cord.

    Is this Self Park or Valet?

    The place is self-park. You just need to scan your reservation QR code as you enter the building and as you drive through each parking level.

    How is the parking rate charged? By the day or 24hr clock? If I park at 9am. But the day I return I won't be back till noon. Do I pay for one day parking or two days

    2. Super affordable though

    Can I park a full size 4 door long bed pick up truck there?

    Yep sure can

    How long does it take to get from garage to terminal 3?

    I just took that ride, and it's only about 5-8 minutes, even with a little traffic.

    Where does the shuttle pick you up from the airport to take you back to the parking garage?

    There is a shuttle bus pick-up location in front of the Hotel on the airport grounds. So when you leave the baggage area, you cross over the roadway where the taxis and others pick up arriving and then you'll see the driveway for the hotel. The… 

    Can I park My Ram 1500 here?

    Love the parking and shuttle drivers. But what's with the $.99 reservation fee? It doesn't appear on the receipt, but it does on my credit card

    I booked through the app and don't see this fee on my statement currently, but if memory serves it was on before. It might simply be a dollar preauthorization similar to the ones used by gas stations and hotels. If this is the case then the charge…

We've used this as long-term parking several times for all different lengths of time. The service is great, from the first greeting to the shuttle driver, to the last goodbye. The longest we've waited to leave the lot was maybe 10 minutes. The longest we've waited for a shuttle at the airport was also maybe 10 minutes. The distance from the airport to the lot is also 10 minutes. Basically, there's not a lot of waiting. This last trip was a work trip and I recommended this company to my coworkers. I think 10 of us used the service to and from the airport. Everyone was happy. We had a long, delayed flight and we were happy to have this reliable shuttle service at the end of our trip and our cars were brought to us very quickly. Lastly, I also talked with a woman I didn't know on the shuttle to the airport. She regularly uses this service and loves this company. She had nothing but amazing things to say. We are happy with our experience and we will continue recommending this company to family and friends.

That phrase doesn't quite fit, per my perspective of both of my last passings thru Kansas. A sketchy and un inviting address for sure. But upon retrieving my Honda Odyssey last night, no (ala Ferris Beuller odometer additions) personal use, or catalytic converter excisions, I was relieved to find the low fee was not a criminal enterprise. Pro: under $100 for a weeks parking. In Chicago, that's good. The cons: Already written of. The shuttle service wasn't white glove. NP. A bit unnerving but in the end, it also didn't require uncomfortable chit chat. The return instructions were a tad confusing, but because it was nearly midnight it was at least not prone to horrid traffic. But the man who picked my son and I simply pulled my suitcase, it was very heavy, and waved it my way. $10 tip for next nothing was probably both too little as well as $8 too much.

I booked through Airport Parking Reservations, selected "oversized vehicle" as I was bringing an SUV. Upon arrival there were signs about an extra $10 per day fee for oversized vehicle I double checked at the desk explaining I paid for the oversized vehicle he pulled up my reservation and told me I was good. Mind you this was after he interrupted me, and then talked over me before I was able to get him to listen. Only then did he check my reservation and say I was good. The phone was ringing off the hook so I chalked it up to either he was overwhelmed or just having a bad day. Spoiler alert that's not the case. We return, I am again told I need to pay for the oversized vehicle I again show my receipt and show the oversized option. He asks to take a picture of my receipt says I am good and he will have to take it up with the third party. I offered to email my receipt to help get the matter cleared up on the business end. I stay and make sure the email came through. I leave the office and I am loading up my luggage and five children and the front desk guy comes out to get me asking me to follow him back into the office. He claims there was fine print at the bottom of the email and I owed more. At this point I'm frustrated and darn right angry. Which I feel any individual would be after being told twice we were taken care of. I told him I would never use them again. I asked what I owed him he's, again, talking over me saying it was the third party's fault. I told him I didn't care, I had been traveling at that point for 8 hours (government shut down long TSA lines March 2026)and had a five hour drive ahead. He was aghast at my frustration and proceeded to tell me I had the bad attitude. After we left I pulled up the email and read all the fine print. It says there could be a $10 a day oversized vehicle charge added for oversized vehicles so to avoid an additional charge to make sure to select the oversized vehicle option which I did. Again, the drivers were wonderful for both rides and we tipped accordingly. If I had accidentally selected the wrong option or there wasn't an oversized option when booking I would have been annoyed, but it wouldn't have been their fault and I would have begrudgingly paid. In this instance the mistake was not mine and I was told twice I was paid in full.

I was hit with unexpected charges, communication was almost nonexistent, and the entire process felt disorganized and sketchy from start to finish.

I would not recommend this business to anyone. If disappointment were an Olympic sport, this business would be bringing home the gold.
