The Best Airport Parking Sites

Booking airport parking ahead is almost always cheaper than turning up, and off-site lots with shuttles cost a fraction of the official car parks. Compare meet-and-greet, on-site and park-and-ride options, and check shuttle frequency if you have an early flight.

How can I find cheap airport parking?

Booking ahead is the single biggest saving: pre-booked airport parking is often half the price of turning up at the barrier. Comparison sites such as SpotHero, Way.com and ParkWhiz in the US, and Holiday Extras, JustPark and Looking4Parking in the UK, show official airport car parks and independent operators side by side with reviews, so you can choose on price and convenience.

What are the types of airport parking?

  • On-site short stay is closest to the terminal and the most expensive, best for quick trips.
  • On-site long stay is cheaper, usually a short shuttle ride from the terminal.
  • Off-site park and ride lots run their own shuttles and are often the cheapest option.
  • Meet and greet (valet) services take your car at the terminal and return it when you land, at a premium.

Is off-site airport parking safe?

Reputable off-site operators are fenced, lit, staffed and often covered by CCTV. Look for schemes such as the UK's Park Mark award, read recent reviews about shuttle reliability and damage claims, and photograph your car before handing over the keys to a valet service.

Park, sleep and fly packages

If you have an early flight, airport hotels often sell packages that include a night's stay and parking for the length of your trip, sometimes for barely more than parking alone. Search for park-and-fly or park-sleep-fly deals at your airport.

Tips for stress-free airport parking

  • Check shuttle frequency, especially for early and late flights.
  • Allow 20 to 30 extra minutes for off-site shuttles.
  • Note your bay number or take a photo of it.
  • Compare with the cost of a taxi or rideshare for short trips.
