Getting oriented at BNA
Start with the terminal layout before choosing where to park. Nashville International uses one large terminal complex with multiple concourses radiating from a central ticketing/security and baggage-claim building. Recent BNA Vision expansion has substantially rebuilt the terminal, and all scheduled passenger facilities remain under the same airport terminal system.
Choosing airport-operated parking at BNA
When comparing parking on the airport estate, focus on location, transfer method and current availability. BNA offers terminal garages, surface/economy parking and valet service. A current construction change is important: Terminal Lot A closed on July 1, 2026 to support construction of a new rental-car facility and parking garage, and airport parking is now cashless.
Getting to and from BNA
For the trip beyond the car park, consider these ground-transport connections. Taxis, rideshare, public buses, hotel shuttles and commercial transportation use assigned pickup zones around the terminal. The existing Consolidated Rental Car Facility is next to Terminal Garage 1, with airport wayfinding from baggage claim and the ground-transport levels.
Terminal amenities and traveler services
Once you reach the terminal, the following traveler services are worth knowing about. BNA offers free Wi-Fi, extensive Nashville-focused dining and retail, live music, airline lounges, TSA PreCheck enrollment service and passenger-assistance facilities. The terminal's recent expansion has added new concourse, security and baggage-claim capacity.
Accessibility planning at BNA
For an accessible journey, confirm both the parking route and any airline assistance in advance. ADA parking spaces are provided throughout airport lots and terminal garages. The terminal has elevators and step-free routes, while airline wheelchair/boarding assistance should be requested before arrival.
