There are a LOT of dining seats. I hope they all survive.

I'm super excited, have a flight in this weekend, and then Mid-March is when I have my next, I'm ready to cast off the old and bring in the new

What is the current airport parking situation? Are any of the new garages open? Is the circle/old garage still open and or a disaster? Economy is always a pain and I'd like to park close if I can since I'm only going to be gone a few days. Thanks

Fears about close parking, definitely a Kansas city thing

Not really, I just want to do it if i can. Last flight most of the close spots were taken/closed and I had to hustle back to economy. Just trying to plan sir.

Uber. Garages are close to full if the counts are at all accurate and same with circle. Economy buses are a disaster.

I've driven myself in the last couple of times and parked in Economy. It's very meh but I haven't taken the time to research the parking sitch at KCI because in the past I've either been dropped off by friends/family or taken an Uber/Lyft

I think the new Terminal parking will be a nice step up.

7am flight so I’m leery of relying on Uber at 5am. Def was a though though.

People like to drive that time because of the airport runs. Also you can schedule Uber the night before.

I've taken quite a few around 4am from downtown. Usually no issues about a 10 minute wait
Some drivers around they time are a little odd.

The buses in economy lately have been very inconsistent. The door to door is nice

Good tips, thanks. I'll prop drive the electric and park in the garage. I always forget they have dedicated spots there that are always open.

The Parking Spot works pretty well for me.

My office is real close. All my peeps park there and I run them over. There's Park n Go that can run you across. There's also plans for a Peachy Parking by Ambassador buildingbas well as a bunch of other stuff.

Just got back from a trip yesterday. It was hilarious. Left friday and there was like no food and basically just M & Ms left for snacks inside the terminal. We got back yesterday which was the last day and several of the bathrooms were just closed off. They def limped down to the end.

First trip out is Sunday.
