Traveling to Airway Heights by RV

I-90 provides your primary east-west route through Airway Heights, connecting directly to Spokane five miles east. US-2 splits north from the interstate here, running toward the Colville National Forest and eventually the Canadian border.

Overnight parking gets tricky. The city doesn't encourage street parking for RVs, and most commercial lots post restrictions. Your best bet is heading to nearby Riverside State Park if you need to stop for the night. Casino parking lots might seem tempting, but policies change frequently and enforcement varies.

Plan your dump station visits outside casino event times if possible. When Northern Quest or Spokane Tribe Casino host concerts or tournaments, US-2 backs up significantly between 6-9 PM. Early morning visits work best.
