Arrival instructions

Parking at the Short Stay Parking is easy:

  1. Short Stay is a popular choice with limited availability, so book your parking in advance to reserve your space.

  2. On the day, simply drive up to the car park barrier, and our ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) system will recognise your car's number plate and open the barrier. There's no need to take a token.

  3. Find a space and park up, then walk the short distance to the terminal building.

Please ensure you allow time to park your car and make your way into the airport terminal.

Return instructions

On return to the airport:

  1. On your return, walk back to the car park and find your car right where you left it. When you drive up to the barrier it'll recognise your number plate again and you can drive away.

Important information

All vehicles must be roadworthy and hold a valid MOT. 

Security

The car park is watched over by 24-hour CCTV so you can enjoy your trip knowing that your car is being well looked after.

Disabled facilities

Disabled parking bays are available.

Transfer details

Being such a short distance from the terminal building means no transfers are required.
