What to know about ROA terminals
Before choosing a parking route, note how the terminal complex is organized. Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport has one compact passenger terminal with centralized ticketing, security, gates and baggage claim. The small scale means parking, rental cars and the terminal can generally be reached on foot in minutes.
Parking on the ROA airport estate
For official airport parking, the main points are these. The first 30 minutes is currently offered free in ROA lots, useful for greeting or assisting passengers, but travelers should check current rates before parking. All official public parking is within walking distance of the terminal, with products for shorter and longer stays.
Ground transportation at ROA
Parking is only one part of the airport transfer; these onward transport details are useful. All major rental-car agencies are housed in a rental-car facility connected to the main terminal by a walkway. Taxis, rideshare and regional bus/transportation companies also serve ROA.
Services available around ROA
Terminal amenities vary by concourse or building, but these are the key facilities noted for this airport. Free ROA Wi-Fi is provided in the terminal. Airport Ambassadors staff the first-floor pre-security area, and passengers also have access to dining, vending, charging and standard travel amenities.
Accessible routes and passenger assistance
Passengers who need step-free routes or additional help should plan the airport journey as carefully as the parking. Airline wheelchair service should be arranged with the carrier before travel. ROA offers wheelchair-accessible restrooms, restaurants, terminal ramps and parking routes.
