Holiday Parking Advisory

Due to construction and higher-than expected passenger activity, the airport is currently experiencing increased demand for parking.

We strongly advise allowing ample time to secure parking at MYR. If possible, we also ask that passengers consider car-pooling and utilizing a drop-off system as well.

We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you in advance for your cooperation.
