Valet Parking
Book Valet Parking
Valet parking is available whether you are gone for a day, a week or longer!
Passengers arriving by personal vehicle can park on the curb in the designated Valet spots (directly across the street from the airport arrivals entrance), grab your luggage and proceed inside the terminal to the valet desk in arrivals. An attendant will be there to collect your information and keys, then you’re free to catch your flight. Upon return, proceed to the valet desk to process payment, collect your keys and your vehicle will be on the curb waiting for you.
Please contact the parking team at 250-765-5612 with any questions or updates to your booking.
A fee of $29.25 will be added to the final cost of your parking stay using long-term parking rates. Daily long-term rates are $2.25 for the first hour and $3.50 for every additional hour, up to $17.50 daily maximum, and a weekly rate of $88.
Please complete this valet registration form to reserve your spot.
Gold Pass Program
The Gold Pass parking program is available for frequent travellers. This pass enables passengers to buy a six-month pass (rate as of January 2, 2026 is $1,290). This then allows for unlimited prepaid parking for one duly registered vehicle, in the short-term parking lot.
For more information about this program, call 250-765-5612.
Accessible Parking
Accessible drop-off locations are available in front the terminal building. Accessible parking is available in the rows closest to the terminal building, in the short- and long-term lots. See the parking map.
YLW also offers a Temporary Accessible Parking Permit Program. This program allows travellers to take their current Accessible Parking Permit with them as they travel, so it can be used at their destination. A permit can be picked up from the Airport Valet Booth. To pick up your permit, call 250-765-5612 .
To help facilitate parking demand, YLW is introducing a new Drop&Go program in the Long-Term Parking Lot. When Long-Term Lot is nearing capacity, customers can leave their vehicle with a parking attendant who will park it for them, eliminating the need to search for a vacant stall. Upon return to YLW, passengers will receive their keys at the valet desk and then continue to Long-Term Lot to retrieve their vehicle from a designated stall near the entrance of the parking lot.
The Drop&Go program will be in place starting December 18th when Long-Term parking is nearing capacity.
