Parking Guide:  The lots are priced as a guide for you to determine your parking expectations, fit for your budget, and confidence level in securing your car.  Short-term is obviously for a short visit to the airport for business, or picking up and dropping off passengers.  Both long-term and economy are designated for parking your vehicle during an extended trip of multiple days.  The main difference in these two options is that long-term is in the enclosed ramp and economy is an outside, surface lot.  All lots are on airport property, in a secured environment. The economy offers an enclosed shuttle pickup station for passengers and serviced by a shuttle that runs every ten-minutes, around the clock, taking passengers and their luggage to the terminal front doors.  DSM International is pleased to offer our passengers three options for them to make the choice in their parking needs at some of the best rates in the Midwest.
