Overview & Suitability

The facility located at 680 Brasilia Ave, Kansas City, MO 64153, previously utilized as a public cell phone waiting lot, has been repurposed to serve exclusively as a dedicated Rideshare Parking Lot for Kansas City International Airport (MCI). This site is no longer intended for private passenger vehicle waiting. General members of the public picking up friends or family are directed to the new primary Cell Phone Waiting Lot located at 50 Bern St.

Access & Navigation

The lot is situated in the airport vicinity, specifically designated for commercial rideshare operators. Drivers should follow official airport signage to reach the specific terminal areas. Due to its status as an operational support facility for rideshare drivers, navigation is straightforward for those authorized to utilize the space.

Parking Rates & Booking

This location is not open for public short-term or long-term parking. As a restricted-use facility for rideshare operators, there is no public booking, hourly, or daily tariff applicable for private passenger cars.

Security & Amenities

The site is managed under the jurisdiction of the Kansas City Aviation Department. While it serves as a staging area for rideshare services, it does not offer public amenities such as restrooms or EV charging, which are located at the new passenger-accessible cell phone lot on Bern St.

Strategic Alternative

For the general public, this location is no longer a viable parking alternative. Travelers looking to wait for incoming flights should proceed to the designated 50 Bern St. lot to take advantage of the free, 45-minute waiting period, which helps reduce congestion at the terminal arrivals curb.
