This practical and popular car park saves you time and money. With no stress. And no walking

Need to know

Drive straight into the car photo booth at the car park, which rapidly scans your entire car body for reference and protection (takes no more than 5 seconds). Park in the arrivals lane and check in using one of the machines, which will give you a ticket. Make sure you keep your ticket safe as you'll need it for your journey to and from the airport.

There are heated waiting areas so you can keep out of the elements. The shuttle to the terminal is included in the price, takes around 14 minutes and runs regularly. It's available 24 hours a day and even has free wifi. It's best to leave 40 minutes to park and get to the airport - longer during the rush hour between 4am and 8am.

When you come back take the bus back to the car park.

If you're planning on returning early try and give the car park as much notice as possible so they can have your car ready for you.

Most standard cars (without trailers/not commercial vehicles) will be accepted at the car park as long as they are less than 2m wide x 2.1m high x 5m long. The car park cannot accept any high-sided vehicles, minibuses, mobile homes, lorries, caravans, trailers or vehicles larger than the above maximum dimensions. Vehicles with a taxi license plate can be parked on-site, but cannot use the Return Greet or Meet and Greet services offered.

The shuttle bus can't accommodate large sporting equipment, so we'd recommend dropping any off with your passengers at the terminal first, then driving to the car park.

Early or late? The car park offers a grace period until midnight at their discretion. Any longer than this and you'll be charged the car park's standard rate of £20 per day. This is subject to change.
