Orange Parking

Nice parking

Like every terminal, parking is on one side of the road, and the terminal is on the other side. We were aiming for Arrivals, we got a parking space an easy dozen steps from the road. We crossed the road, went inside Terminal 7, and the waiting area for Arrivals was right there, inside the doors at ground level. No electric moving walkways necessary. Plane from Tokyo landed at 4:35, family came out from Baggage Claim at 5:15. (Because terrorists are everywhere, you can't meet your friends and family at the carousels, anymore, so they have to rent a cart if they have a lot of baggage. Then they walk to the meeting area.) Two minute walk back to the car. At 5:25 PM, there was a 15 second wait to pay for parking at the lot exit. I was handing over cash, but the cashier asked if I'd prefer to use my E-ZPass. Apparently, for up to 2 hours, it cost $12.
Next time, I'll leave the nearby spaces for other people. I'd like to see if there are good views on the parking lot's top level.
Oh yeh; the signage in the parking garage is a little too minimalistic. The lanes when entering and exiting are lacking. When you enter, you don't know which way to go. There was no sign saying where the terminal is, for those people that would want to get as close as possible, or which way is the ramp for the next highest level.
