About this Location

Facility Overview

Long-Term Airport Parking at Midland International Air & Space Port (MAF), situated at 2700 Windecker St, offers convenient, direct-access terminal parking for travelers flying out of the Permian Basin. Configured primarily as an expansive open-air surface lot adjacent to the terminal entrance, this facility is built to handle the West Texas demand for travel. Because it is an open-air surface lot without height-restrictive overhead structures, it accommodates virtually all standard passenger vehicles, including work-ready heavy-duty pickup trucks (such as Ford F-250/F-350, Chevy Silverado 2500, and Ram 2500), lifted trucks, full-size commercial SUVs, and high-roof passenger vans that often exceed standard parking garage clearances.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

Positioned directly on airport grounds midway between Midland and Odessa, this long-term parking lot offers unmatched proximity for airline passengers and regional visitors:

Midland International Air & Space Port Passenger Terminal: Located just a 2 to 4 minute walk directly from the parking bays, eliminating the need to wait for shuttle buses.
CAF Airpower Museum / Commemorative Air Force Grounds: Located within the immediate airport perimeter, showcasing rich aviation history.
Cinergy Midland: Located about 5 miles east along Business 20 / Hwy 80, offering upscale bowling, cinema, and dining.
Downtown Midland & Bush Convention Center: Approximately 10 miles east (around a 12-minute drive) via Interstate 20 or Business 20.
Downtown Odessa & Ratliff Stadium: Situated roughly 12 to 14 miles west, making this a central departure point for travelers across the entire oil basin.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

Arriving at 2700 Windecker Street is seamless from all directions in the Permian Basin. Drivers arriving from Midland or Odessa can take Interstate 20 to Exit 131 or follow Business 20 (Hwy 80) directly onto Loop 40/La Force Boulevard, which transitions directly onto Windecker Street. Clear overhead directional signage guides motorists to the designated Long-Term and Economy surface lots. Exiting after returning flights is just as smooth, feeding directly back toward Loop 40 and Interstate 20 without downtown traffic congestion. Regional transit, rideshares (Uber, Lyft), and on-site car rental facilities (Avis, Budget, Enterprise, Hertz, National) operate within walking distance inside the terminal.

Visitor & Driver Tips

During peak holiday periods, Monday morning business departures, and major oil and gas conference weeks, the long-term lot can fill up quickly. Drivers should plan to arrive at least 90 minutes before domestic boarding to easily secure a space and complete the short walk to ticket counters. Keep your entry ticket in a safe, shaded spot inside your vehicle out of direct West Texas sunlight, or use credit-card in/credit-card out at the automated gates for an effortless departure.
