PDX Parking
Anyone have a suggestion as to how to cheap out on parking at PDX for a commuter? I'm having a hard time with $200/quarter for the employee lot.
Any hotels or places on the MAX to consider?
Thanks!

Holiday Inn by the Airport will let crew members park for free. Just go to the lobby and fill out a parking pass. ALWAYS tip the driver and NEVER complain if the van is late picking you up. The van runs every 20 min from the hotel.

In any event, thanks so much for the help.

Also, so as not to upset the apple cart, is the tip your standard $1 for the driver, or should it be a little heavier?

I've been parking there for 3 years, there's about 20+ crew members who park there, there's a mix of FA, and pilot for many different airlines. I usually give the driver $2 sometime $3 depending on how quickly they are, they always drop me off next to my car. All of the drivers are great people and friendly. Your first time you should go in uniform and tell them you want to leave your car there. When you fill out the form you don't have to fill out the "return date" they'll have your info on file after that. I only commute 3-4 time a month so the $2-3 tip is nothing.
