Arrival instructions

Birmingham Airport Car Park 1 are now operating as a ticketless car park. You no longer need to push for a ticket, their automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras will read your registration number to raise the barriers automatically.

It is important that you provide the correct registration number at the point of booking, otherwise the cameras won’t be able to recognise your booking.

Please ensure you park in Car Park 1 to avoid any additional charges.

Should you require any help, please press the assistance button and a member of their customer service team will be happy to assist you. The assistance button is located on the entrance column.

Return instructions

Once you are back at the car park, drive to the exit where the barrier will raise automatically to allow exit.

If the barrier does not raise, it may be that you have overstayed or parked in the incorrect car park. Any overstay will be charged at the standard tariff.

You can pay any additional charges at the exit lane by card. Please make sure you choose the correct lane for payment and have your registration number ready to quote.

Should you require any help, please press the assistance button with your booking reference ready to quote and a member of their customer service team will be happy to assist you.

We hope you have a safe journey.

Security

As well as being right next to the airport, this car park benefits from high-quality security measures. It is guarded by electronic barriers, which use ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition). These barriers will only open and shut if the number plate has been registered with the car park.

Car Park 1 is also surrounded by high-security fencing and CCTV cameras, to keep track of all activity within the car park, as well as preventing intruders. These collective measures have earned it the Park Mark Award, as part of the Crime Prevention Initiative. This award can only be granted by the police, who deem the measures comprehensive enough to meet their standards.

Disabled facilities

30 Blue Badge permit parking spaces are available on a first-come-first-served basis but you must bring your permit. To make use of these spaces, you will need to bring your full confirmation details, including the email. These spaces will be easily located in this car park; you just need to follow the signs for Blue Badge holders. These spaces are also located next to the exit, which is ideal for those who have mobility issues.

If you require the use of your Blue Badge permit on holiday, this is not an issue. You will, however, need to speak to the customer desk. They will then issue you with a permit in place of your Blue Badge to clearly display inside your vehicle. 

Transfer details

Thanks to this car park’s on-site location, there is no need for a transfer bus service. The car park is within 3 minutes walking distance to the terminal doors so you don’t need to waste time before you start your holiday.
