Facility Overview
The Short Term Parking facility at Bangor International Airport (BGR) is the primary choice for travelers requiring proximity to the terminal. Located directly at 287 Godfrey Blvd, this facility is designed as a surface lot, providing immediate, level-ground access to the main airport entrance. Its open-air design means there are no height restrictions, making it perfectly suitable for standard passenger vehicles, SUVs, and pickup trucks, though it is primarily optimized for transient airport traffic.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
This parking facility is integrated into the heart of Bangor International Airport, making it the most convenient location for passengers catching flights or those greeting arriving travelers. While primarily an aviation-focused lot, its location provides quick access to the greater Bangor area via I-95. The facility is a short drive from the historic Bangor Waterfront and the Cross Insurance Center, serving as an ideal staging point for those navigating the region for business or regional tourism.
Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Accessing the Short Term lot is seamless, with clear signage throughout the airport loop road. Drivers can easily merge from Godfrey Boulevard into the designated entry lanes. Exiting is designed to handle airport traffic flow efficiently, with automated pay stations reducing bottlenecking during peak flight times. While the lot is not a traditional hub for mass transit, it is the primary gateway for travelers relying on regional air connections and local taxi/rideshare services that operate directly from the terminal frontage.

Visitor & Driver Tips
To ensure a stress-free experience, we recommend arriving at least 15 minutes earlier than your planned terminal entry time, especially during holiday travel periods. Keep your parking ticket in a secure, easily accessible location, as you will need it for the automated payment process upon departure. If you are planning a long-duration trip, ensure you are utilizing the correct lot, as this section is specifically optimized for short-term and drop-off/pick-up activity.
