Three ways to park at a UK airport, and how to decide between them.
Drive to the terminal area and hand your vehicle to the parking provider.
- Best for
- Early departures, families with luggage, and anyone who wants the shortest walk to check-in.
- Worth checking
- Check whether the airport access charge is included and what the provider's vehicle restrictions are.
Park at the provider's site and take a transfer to the terminal.
- Best for
- Longer trips where price matters more than a few extra minutes at the airport.
- Worth checking
- Transfer frequency and journey time vary a lot between sites — both are shown on every result.
Park within the airport estate with convenient terminal access.
- Best for
- Travellers who want to stay inside the airport estate with a short, predictable transfer.
- Worth checking
- Height restrictions apply in some zones and prices rise quickly close to the travel date.
