Hello, I might need to park my car for the week and take a local shuttle bus to Wittman airport. So I can camp with friends under the wing for the week. Any off airport 24hr long term parking lots for the week? Free or cheap.
I don't think there is any on site 24hr parking but maybe there is?
Check out parking at Appleton or Fond du Lac airports. Bus shuttles readily available.

Check with Sleepy Hollow Campground. He has a parking lot in front of the campground, it's only 1/2 mile from the main gate.
Relemdadts is just off the field by the Ultralight & diagonal road back gate. They have reasonable car parking and you can walk to the tram stop from there.
Parking Lot S near Camp Scholler west gate is there for extra vehicles when camping.
Is that lot S only for paid campers? Relemdats doubled the parking rate 2018, and who knows for 2019, that's why I am looking at options.Quote:

Thanks. I can check then and see.
A buddy of mine came up several days after I had the camper set up this year, and that's where he left his car while he stayed in my camper for most of the week. He didn't say how much it cost, or where he bought the permit, (I think at the campground registration,) but you can probably find out from the camping info on the Airventure website. That is the lot's purpose, for groups that travel separately and camp together, because only one vehicle is allowed per campsite. In fact I believe in the past it wasn't even named "Lot s" it was just "overflow parking."Quote:

There is a Park and Ride lot at the exit just south of the airport on 41 . My son was staying in a motel and I picked him up every day .
Not sure how he needed a Park and Ride if he had a motel space?
Does a Park and Ride allow 24hr or weekly parking?
Looking for a proper and designated and secure weekly parking. ((if it exists)
"Not sure how he needed a Park and Ride if he had a motel space?"
I'll deduce that the son's motel was a substantial distance from Oshkosh and the Park and Ride is much closer?
His hotel was on the other side of the lake and he drove to and from the park and ride every day . Worked great .
I was looking for 24 hour parking.
Public Park and Ride is usually daytime only, I think.
S lot parking costs the same as the other paid parking lots at Airventure. I know since we park there each year.
Hi Brian,
Is the S lot for 24 hour or weekly parking?
Thanks
Hi Bill,
I know if you do weekly then yes it's 24 hour parking since as mentioned above it's overflow parking for the campers. I'm not sure what happens with a daily pass meaning if you buy it on Monday at 7am can you stay until Tuesday at 7am. Normally we get a weekly pass since then we can come and go as we like. The times I've gotten a daily pass we didn't stay overnight so I never paid attention to when we had to vacate by.
There must be about a thousand trustworthy, aviation friendly people that would love to have a less expensive rental car available.Quote:
