Airport Parking

This type of parking covers fully manned car parks that are located at sites near the airport, but beyond its perimeter. And don’t think you’ll be left languishing miles from the airport, either, with the majority of off-airport facilities within 20 minutes of the terminal doors – and all with high levels of on-site security in place.

So, how do these off-airport park and ride services work? It really couldn’t be easier. Simply drive to the car park – following the clear and concise instructions on your confirmation email – leave your keys at reception and jump on a free shuttle bus to the nearby airport terminal.

Transfer times are usually no more than 20 minutes and while you’re away, your car will be parked in a security-protected compound. For extra peace of mind, the vast majority of the off-airport car parks we work with are holders of the police-approved Park Mark® Safer Parking Award.

On-airport parking, as the name suggests, is located within the airport perimeter. Many of the facilities are next to the terminal, with just a short transfer or stroll to the check-in desks. Along with minimal transfer times, most offer self-park operation – where you get to keep your keys.

Security will also be extensive, with all the technology and patrols you’d expect at a major airport. Look out for both long and short-stay options, making on-airport parking ideal for either business or leisure travel.   

Best for: Convenience. On-airport car parks offer parking with minimal transfer times to the terminal. APH.com provides extremely competitive prices for these car parks. Great for trips where you’re running to a tight schedule and want to save as much times as possible.
