Nashville International Airport announces new expansive cell phone lot to accommodate passenger demands

The current BNA Cell lots will be closed for roadway expansion. The new lot is two and a half times bigger than existing cell lots with 240 spaces.

As BNA continues to experience tremendous growth, the airport is opening a new cell phone lot to meet passenger demands, provide ample space for travelers and alleviate the traffic congestion around the roadways, including traffic from I-40.

The new cell phone lot will provide 240 parking spaces, which is two and a half times larger than the current lot, which has 44 spaces. The current cell lots will be blocked off in preparation for the construction of roadway enhancements.

According to airport officials: “The average drive time is five to seven minutes to the terminal, so once your loved one has touched down, please remember that multiple factors could affect their arrival time to your meeting location. We recommend you keep in close contact with them upon arrival to plan a seamless pick-up process.

“There is no charge to park in cell lot and it is first come first serve—no reserved spaces.”

The new cell lot is located at 1415 Murfreesboro Pike, and is approximately three miles from the main BNA terminal. The new cell lot will have digital signage known as flight information display systems (FIDS) that display real-time updates on incoming flights.
