COLORADO SPRINGS — Parking is filling up fast at the Colorado Springs Airport for the Thanksgiving Holiday.

The suggestion from Wednesday evening to Thanksgiving morning is to give yourself some pad time.

The airport has been steadily adding more flights and the increasing number of travelers becomes obvious on Thanksgiving.

Over the past two years the parking lots at the airport have completely filled

With more than 35-thousand travelers expected this holiday the airport has a plan in place for parking.

“We have an overflow parking lot. We have an overflow to the overflow parking lot this year, said Colorado Springs Airport, Director of Aviation, Greg Phillips, “We have lighting in those lots, and will be signage to help people find their way.”

If you find the regular parking locations full, it takes about five minutes to circle around to the overflow lot which is just west of short term parking.
