Default Paid parking for commuters?

I was just curious if there are any companies that pay for parking at the airport where you commute from? Also, if they do pay, do they just pay up to the cost of parking at your base?

I guess Colgan is starting something like this? I know Skywest doesn't do it. Thanks for the responses

Mesaba also pays for parking at whatever base you choose. I don't know of too many that will pay for parking at just any airport you choose to commute from, usually it has to be from one of the bases.

Most airlines don't pay; however, many airports give a huge discount to airline employees that are commuters. For example, DFW charges $198 for the whole year for employees. Any other person would have to pay $8/ day.

RAH will provide you with a parking pass in base. If you commute, you can be reimbursed for a parking pass at any airport up to the monthly cost of parking in base.

Trans States reimburses its pilots up to $40/mo. for parking expenses if you submit the receipts.

I am at SkyWest and they only pay for parking at our base. However..... check at the airport your commuting out of as others have stated. I commute out of CID and found away (From another commuter) to park in long term for free! Good Luck!

That's only for STL

In RIC, we get $20/mo. I live in Chicago and it's $36/mo for me and Hulas only gives me $20/mo
