Directions

East Midlands Airport is easily accessible from both the M1 or A42. Once you’ve finally moved onto the A453, it’s just a matter of following the signs to the airport. On your route, you will find signs for Long Stay Car Parks. The detailed directions below clearly describe how to reach the car park.

  1. Exit the M1 or A42 onto the A453.
  2. Follow the road until you reach the main entrance to the airport.
  3. Turn right into the airport. At the first roundabout, take the first exit.
  4. Carry straight on at the next roundabout, and take the first exit at the third roundabout.
  5. Go straight on at the fourth roundabout and follow the road until you reach a junction. Long Stay 1 is located on your left.

Arrival instructions

Once you arrive at the car park:

  1. As you approach the parking entry barrier, our number plate recognition cameras will scan your car's registration and grant you access into the car park.

  2. Find a parking space in an open zone and head over to a nearby bus shelter where a shuttle bus will come every 15 minutes.
     

Please ensure you allow sufficient time park your vehicle and complete the airport transfer.

Return instructions

After clearing customs:

  1. Head to the bus stop and take the bus back to the car park.
  2. Collect your car from where you parked it before.
  3. Drive to the exit barrier where your number plate will be recognised and the barrier will rise; allowing you to leave the car park.

Important information

No trailers are permitted.

No cancellation within 72 hours of arrival.

Security

As well as providing a seamless service for those who park with them, Long Stay 1 also has a high-security system. Both entry and exit to the car park are barrier-controlled – which means only pre-registered cars can park. All number plates are read using ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition), so you can guarantee that every vehicle in the compound has been registered. CCTV cameras also watch it, so all activity around the premises is monitored. Collectively, these security measures have earned it the Park Mark Award. This can only be awarded by the police, who grant it as part of their Crime Prevention Initiative.

Disabled facilities

If you require disabled access or experience mobility issues, then you needn’t worry about getting to and from the terminal. Long Stay One has plenty of accessible parking spaces available for those who require them. It’s always recommended that you book well in advance. On top of that, the transfer bus comes complete with wheelchair access, making life much easier on the journey to the terminal. The transfer service is completely DDA compliant.

Transfer details

When it comes to East Midlands Airport Long Stay 1’s transfer bus service, you won’t have to worry about waiting for a long time with your luggage in tow. Their transfer bus takes only 5-minutes to reach the terminal doors. On top of that, it runs every 15-minutes, so the time it takes between you parking your car and boarding the bus won’t be long at all.

Vehicle restrictions
