PSA: Remote Parking at DFW Is Full, Everybody Panic

We're not saying that you should drop everything that you're doing if you plan on flying out of DFW today. But, we're not saying you shouldn't immediately scramble to the airport and claim one of the last remaining parking spaces on this, the busiest travel day of the year either...

That's right, all of the $9-a-day parking at the airport is occupied. Express parking, the next-cheapest option at $11-a-day, has already sold out one of its lots. Sections of Terminal A and Terminal B parking are full as well.

Basically, if you aren't careening down SH 114 or requesting an Uber right now, you're screwed.
