Yes! Our real-time parking feature accurately reflects the number of available spaces for public use.

There may be open spaces visible in the lot that are reserved for airport operations and other essential uses, but are not accessible to the public. Our system ensures that travelers have an accurate view of open spaces meant for passenger parking.

In some cases, we keep entrances open to allow vehicles to flow toward designated overflow areas or newly available spaces. The website accurately reflects available spaces in the lot, while the entrance remains open to guide cars toward overflow options. Our goal is to reduce congestion and prevent delays by directing traffic appropriately.

Due to high passenger flow, parking spaces can fill up or free up quickly, with availability changing within minutes, especially during peak times. We recommend checking parking availability often and considering alternate options during peak periods such as the holiday season and Washoe County school breaks.

Rest assured, our parking team works around the clock to provide real-time information on availability and guide travelers to open spaces.

Yes! Reservations are available in the Long-Term Garage on the second floor and garage roof. Since space is limited, we recommend booking as early as possible to secure your spot.

Parking is still available on a first-come, first-served basis in the Long-Term Surface Lot, Short-Term Garage, and overflow lots. Just plan to leave early and check real-time availability.

The peer-to-peer carsharing company, Turo, is authorized to operate at RNO.

There are two operational locations:
Park and pick up is located in the overflow lot (Blue Lot) located along the Loop Road on the right side before you reach the front curb. Please park in the designated peer-to-peer carsharing spaces. The spaces are located near the crosswalk and are designated in red.

If the gate to the Blue Lot is closed, or “out of order”, then press the call button for assistance. Blue Lot has designated peer-to-peer carsharing spaces, even if the lot is showing as full.

Face-to-Face pick up is located near the ride share pick up area outside of Baggage Claim Door D, just past the shuttle pick up area. Look for the peer-to-peer carsharing signs.
