PDX offers free parking to those who patron businesses in new main terminal

PORTLAND, Ore. ( KOIN ) — Rose City residents who have yet to see the new and improved Portland International Airport can secure discounted parking throughout the month, but with a catch.

For those who want a glimpse of the upgrade but don’t have a flight coming up, the Port of Portland has announced it will give two-hour parking coupons every Saturday in September — but only if you spend a total of $25 at businesses in the main terminal.

Here is a list of the pre-security shops you can visit.

• The Country Cat
• Hello From Portland
• Loyal Legion
• Missionary Chocolates
• Orox Leather
• PiPH
• Portland Coffee Roasters

To redeem the deal, customers must keep their parking ticket and receipts to show it to PDX staff. They will receive a validation coupon to submit before they leave.

Visitors will be charged $4 per each extra hour they spend at the airport.
