I'm a big believer in hiring Wynne. Expensive (about $110 per drop off and pick up) but worth it.
I try to arrive at least 2 hours prior to boarding - two and one-half hours if international.
No parking fee, curbside service at my house so my car stays in the garage.
Luggage handled.
Normally I travel with sporting equipment so I have to check a bag (golf clubs, scuba gear, etc.)
Always nice to just have a backpack and a rolling carry on.
I usually just pull up to the curb at the airport, leave the car running with the keys in it and head inside. If it isn’t there when I return I blame everyone else. Then make an insurance claim. New car every few weeks. Doesn’t cost me anything.

No kidding. Before I got married two years ago I had not slept in my own bed in New York or Dallas in 14 months. Hotel rooms, airplane beds and airline lounges were and are "home" for me I guess.

Is it OK to ask
Is it OK to ask why you even had your "own bed" if you hadn't slept in it for 14 months? Just curious.
I always get a chuckle out of humble brag posts like this
I was waiting for a post like this, but let's do the math,
Parking Spot or whatever at $15 a day uncovered or $20 a day covered.
7 day trip is $105 to $120.
If you park uncovered, pray that there is not a hail storm or some moron backs into your car in the parking lot. Damage to vehicle can run $500 and up depending on your insurance not to mention the rate increase on your premiums.
Try arriving after 10:00 p.m. Those remote lots run one shuttle which means you wait outside with your luggage for 10 minutes to an hour as the one shuttle slowly drives to every terminal.
And if you're married, traveling with kids, etc. you handle all the heavy bags by yourself. The drivers are supposed to help, but sometimes they don't give a hoot in heck about your luggag and they want a tip at $2 per bag so that's another $10.
All of a sudden $220 for a private car for pick up and drop off starts to look pretty nice.
Coming back from Italy with four new incisions in my abdomen and knowing I did not have to wait for that stupid shuttle or drive my tired as home was a godsend.
Not a brag, I'm just tired of jacking with airport parking to save $50 to $100.
OP wanted suggestions, I made one.
