hey all, I have been reading all the comments about long term parking - what is the safest place to park for a week? I read bad and good things about different lots, but they are from a year ago or so. I read about JFK long term parking and Smartpark???? We will be traveling with 2 little ones and luggage. thanks

SMARTPARK is a parking service near JFK. After reading some of the horror stories about JFK's own long term parking, I tried out Smartpark and found them to be cheaper, safe, and reliable. I was gone for 4 nights and it only cost $66, incl tax.

Has anyone else used SmartPark. Is it safe?

Paid for parking with a credit card upon return from vacation. The attendant took my card behind the counter out of my sight. The next day my credit card number was used to make purchases of $1000. Thankfully, the credit card company shut down my card to prevent further illegal use. Never will use the Airpark again.

i lost my ticket for my long term parking- how much will i have to pay?

they'd find out how long you've stayed. they have security that accounts for every car parked. this is to protect them from people who parked for more than a day, and think they can pay only for a day, by lying and saying they lost the ticket.

Can anyone recommend a hotel that has overnight parking and will shuttle us to & from the airport?

None of the hotels seem to allow you to keep your car ther unless you are staying at the hotel for the duration.
