How does Short Stay parking work?
Say goodbye to stressful planning and parking with these 4 simple steps:
Book in advance: Short Stay 1 and Short Stay 3 are available for Turn Up & Park. Short Stay 2 is available to pre-book only.
Park up: Our Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system will recognise your vehicle and open the barrier (if your car park has barrierless entry, just drive straight through). Find a space, park up, and lock your vehicle.
Walk to the terminal: No need for a shuttle bus. All the Short Stay car parks are in easy walking distance to the terminal, for a quick route to check-in.
When you return: Find your vehicle right where you left it. The ANPR system will recognise your number plate and open the barrier again when you leave, so you can just drive away.
