DFW Remote Parking South

Long story short… standing outside waiting for this damn bus to come for almost 30 min at 2 30 in the morning. I shouldn’t have to call their office several time just to get them to send out a damn bus!

I’ve left my car at DFW South Remote numerous times and have never had any issues. Two thumbs up.

I am currently standing here at 154 am having waited for nearly 54 minutes for a shuttle in the cold with about a dozen other people. We have called the parking office at least four times (more if u include others waiting) and we r told just to wait as they are busy. After a long and late flight with delays the last thing we want to do is stand in the cold waiting for the shuttle and pay extra hour for parking at that. Most ppl in line are muttering will never use this again and thinking parking spot next time (that shuttle has come by at least four times already). After waiting I finally call and ask if it’ll take more than five minutes more for shuttle to arrive as I’ve already waited nearly an hour. They tell me they cannot guarantee a time and that it’s likely to be more than 10 mins. I finally give in and decide to call über and had to pay 7 $ to get to the remote south terminal. Finally to add salt to the wound when I get there I need to walk from the toll booth in and in the dark it’s very hard to find my parking space. I see a remote south shuttle coming in and the driver refuses to let me in and drives by. I catch him when he stops to let a passenger out and ask him to take me to my spot since I am having trouble locating it and he REFUSES!!! I show him my remote south voucher tell him I’ve been waiting an hour and it’s now 2 am…(I got off my plane at 1230ish) but he still will not let me in. I have no choice but to walk to the remote south office and another shuttle driver there hears my story and helps me to my parking space. This was by far the worst worst experience ever. The rudeness of that one shuttle driver needs to be addressed as that was just simply unacceptable.

Warning, this place is nonexistent. Went here to park before a flight to CA. It is not there. Do not waste your time. The wife got pissed off at me, & we hadn’t even begun our trip.

I had a mostly good experience with this place, up until the end. Like most people have mentioned, parking here is cheap in comparison to other options — it’ll run you $ 9/​day. There’s no covered parking option, but if you’re only going away for a few days, I don’t think that matters too much (then again, I’m not driving the most prestigious car). They provide shuttles to and from the terminals every 15 minutes, so they make it pain-​free as far as making your flight on time. I was lucky enough to time it that I was walking up to the station as the shuttle arrived, so yay!
However, getting back was a bit more annoying. I had to make a flight change, so my new flight ended up landing at 12:17 AM; on the DFW remote parking website, it lists a number that you’ll have to call if you need to be picked up after 12:30. Once I got to my baggage claim, I called the number and said that I would need a shuttle in about 10 minutes, allowing time for my bag to show up. The lady on the other end of the phone was at first hard to understand, kept trying to talk over me, and then finally snapped «shuttles run ALL NIGHT». Stunned, I said «Oh, okay» and then was promptly hung up on before I could say anything else. After having spent a long, exhausting day traveling, this rude encounter was not exactly appreciated.
I resigned myself down to the pick up area, hoping that the woman was right. I’m not exaggerating at all when I say every other parking shuttle came at least twice before Remote South showed up. After I saw the Express North shuttle for the fourth time, I tried calling again, only to be told the same useless information — that buses ran every 15 minutes. The wait ended up actually being closer to 35 minutes. It was just as fun as you’d imagine.
So, I don’t really know. Would I try it again? Maybe, but only if I’m absolutely sure that my flight won’t be landing after midnight.

It was $ 65 to park here for a week (uncovered, not in a parking garage). It was crazy finding a parking place, but the booth operator was helpful. He said even though the sign said the parking lot was «Full», that you can still usually manage to find a spot if you look hard enough. He was right about that!
The buses come by every 15 – 20 minutes to shuttle people from the parking lot to the terminals. On the way back, look for the yellow shuttle buses that service the «Remote» parking areas. It also helps to write down the row & section number where your car is parked so that you can find it when picking it up.
I kept the ticket with me, & when I picked up my car, I scanned the ticket into the automated machine, then scanned my credit card to pay. That machine gives you back the ticket, & you will need it to scan into the gate on the way out. If you have already paid, it will just raise the gate & let you out. Very convenient!

35 minute wait for the bus from Terminal C
absolutely unacceptable. Will park offsite in the future.

This is the way to go for DFW parking last minute. The price can’t be beat even with the recent $ 1 increase. It also takes toll tag so getting in and out is easy! It does not offer a covered option and the bus ride is about 8 – 13 minutes depending on terminal, but the buses come regularly in both directions and the staff is very friendly. It is sometimes hard to find a spot on busy weekends, but don’t be discouraged if you see that it is sold out, just wait for the next shuttle to arrive with passengers and follow one to their car. Just don’t be too creepy with it!
