Airport parking scam

Airport parking must be a lucrative business, reading a news report about a group of workers at a parking facility A.B. Won Pat Guam International Airport might have pocketed $57,000 from the airport. What they did is not lower the barrier as cars go through, this way the computer doesn’t count every car entering to parking lot, they then pocket some of the parking fees.

Not sure what the period of time is, but still that’s a lot of raised barriers, did they not have CCTV, it’s an airport after all, terror alerts and all that!

To steal that amount of money the airport parking companies must be making millions.

A bit of research later-

US airport parking at airports like Philadelphia airport parking costs roughly $70 a week!

I’m visiting the UK soon (London) wonder if their prices are better.

UK airport parking for Heathrow airport parking costs over £50 (~$90) a week!

UK parking is more expensive, glad I won’t be parking at Heathrow then :-)

Philadelphia International Airport is increasing vehicle parking capacity by more than 6,000 spaces soon, if we assume 5,000 spaces will be filled at any one time the airport parking makes about $350,000 a week or $18,200,000 a year, WOW!
