The economy parking lot at Philadelphia Airport (PHL) has been closed since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Now that temporary closure is permanent. Travelers should be advised to avoid driving to the airport during peak travel times to avoid long delays and potential spillover to off-site parking.

The economy lot, which had parking for some 7000 vehicles will now be used to expand the airport’s cargo operations. “We have a huge opportunity to become one of the most successful cargo airports on the East Coast,” said Stephanie Wear, the airport’s director. The move has the potential to create as many as 28,000 jobs in the area.
