What to Expect at Long Stay Car Park 1

Are Transfers Required?

Yes, a transfer via the free shuttle bus is required. However, this journey only takes five minutes, and the shuttle buses turn up every 10 minutes, 24/7. This means that you will never wait longer than 10 minutes to leave your car to catch the shuttle bus to the airport.

What is the drop-off procedure?

Drive up to the entrance barrier at the car park, and the machine will automatically issue you a ticket. Because this is an on-site airport car park, you will not be required to leave your car keys, and can instead keep hold of them yourself for safekeeping.

What is the pick-up procedure?

Once you have landed and collected your luggage, make your way to the arrivals hall and turn left between the Spar shop and the information desk, where you will find the shuttle buses. When you get back to your car, drive up to the exit barrier, insert your ticket into the machine, and the barrier will lift. You can then exit the car park and drive away.
