The garage offers more than 3,000 covered parking spots and an overflow lot for another 750 vehicles, including oversized SUVs and vans. Patrons can take advantage of more than parking at the facility, Larry Mazzola, president of the airport commission, said. It also provides baggage check-in -- complete with boarding pass -- for several domestic airlines, ATM and vending machines, 24-hour camera surveillance and a credit-card entry and exit. Shuttles to the terminals run every five minutes during peak travel hours and each 10 minutes at other times. The garage is accessible from the San Bruno Avenue exit on Highway 101 a= nd the South Airport Boulevard exit on Interstate 380. Parkers in SFO's hourly lot, which is within walking distance of the terminals, pay $28 per day for the first six days, and those in the International Garage are charged $22 per day.
