Types of Gatwick parking service

Have a little read below for help choosing between the different services available to you at Gatwick airport. Do you want the quickest Park and Ride option, the cheapest Gatwick parking, the most convenient Meet and Greet, or would you like to park and walk to the terminal?

Are you looking for cheap Gatwick parking? Our low-cost Park and Ride offers could be perfect for you. Or maybe you’re looking for the most convenient parking at Gatwick? In which case our super-straightforward Gatwick Meet and Greet services (also known as Gatwick Valet parking) might be just what you’re looking for. Or perhaps you’d rather relax in the knowledge that your car is close by in an on-airport car park right next to the terminal? With our Short Stay Gatwick car parking, you’ll be just metres from departures. Whichever service you choose, you can rest assured your car will be stored in a safe and secured car park.

Airparks Gatwick Bus

Off-airport Gatwick parking

They might be located outside the airport perimeter but all our off-airport car parks at Gatwick are very close to the airport grounds; the longest transfer takes just 14 minutes. What’s more, transfer buses serve both North and South terminals and transfers to and from the terminal building are free. Off-airport parking at Gatwick is invariably the best for cheap parking at Gatwick airport because the transfer buses take a little longer than those of the on-airport car parks.

For more details about each service, check out our pages for each off-airport Gatwick car park:

Gatwick Short Stay North Terminal

On-airport Gatwick Airport parking

Save time with on-airport Gatwick car parking, just a walk or quick bus ride away from the terminal building.

All car parks are inside the airport perimeter and all transfers are free. Transfers take no longer than 5 minutes from the car park to the terminal and operate to the North and South terminals. You can even bypass transfer buses entirely if you book the official Gatwick Short Stay parking, located at both terminals. These car parks are immediately opposite each terminal so you can walk from your car to check-in.

You have a number of on-airport parking deals at Gatwick to choose from:

Gatwick Valet Parking North

Meet and Greet/Valet parking

Talk about a time saver! Meet and Greet is the simplest and easiest car parking at Gatwick Airport. Just drive your car to the terminal building where a driver will meet you and, once you’ve unloaded your bags, your driver will park your car in a secured car park near Gatwick airport. At the end of your trip, your car will be brought back to you, so you can jump in and head home.

You may also hear Meet and Greet referred to as ‘Gatwick Valet parking’, not to be confused with the Valeting car wash services that are optional extras to add to your airport parking.

Choose between the following Gatwick Meet and Greet parking options:

Parking at Gatwick terminals

Gatwick parking North terminal

Some parking options are slightly more convenient if you are flying from the North terminal. There are two official Gatwick car parks, Long Stay and Short Stay, located at both terminals, so there are no diversions. Short Stay parking is actually opposite the terminal entrance so you can walk from your car straight to check-in. Long Stay is usually a cheaper option and is a Park and Ride service which takes about 5 minutes on the bus.

Prices can vary for the official car parks between the North and South terminals so, if you wanted to, you can always choose the cheaper car park and then hop on the Gatwick monorail to get yourself to the other terminal. It's not as convenient but, sometimes, it can you save a few pounds.

Airparks have a different set up with just one car park located outside the airport grounds and transfer buses which run to both terminals. This means that transfer times vary depending on which terminal you are flying from. It takes about 10 minutes to get you to/from the North terminal and about 15 minutes to/from the South terminal. Airparks is invariably the cheapest option for parking at Gatwick but if you're happy to ride the bus for a few minutes more, it's a great alternative to the on-airport car parks.

Gatwick parking South terminal

There are two official South terminal Gatwick car parks: Short Stay which is on the terminal doorstep so you can walk to check-in, and Long Stay which is a 5 minute bus ride away. Both are really easy to find - just follow the signs as you approach Gatwick airport.

Airparks is located just outside the Gatwick airport grounds. They run regular transfer buses which stop at the North terminal first, after about 10 minutes, and then take another 5 minutes to reach the South Terminal. It's not as quick as the Gatwick Long Stay parking but it is usually the cheapest option, offering great value for your money.

Another difference between Airparks and the official car parks, is that Airparks provide a valet service whereby you don't need to find a parking space when you arrive or locate your car when you return. You drop off and pick up your car at the reception so passing in and out of Airparks is very smooth and quick. This does mean that you need to leave your car keys with Airparks staff while you're away. Official Gatwick car parks provide a more traditional parking service whereby you park yourself and walk to the bus stop. You keep your keys and need to remember where you parked for your return.

Meet and Greet serves both terminals

The great advantage with Meet and Greet Gatwick parking is that you can drive straight to the terminal and not worry about transfers. All our Meet and Greet providers at Gatwick service the North terminal and the South terminal so, whichever you choose, you can rest assured it remains as hassle-free as possible.

APH (LGW) I always use you for airport parking. Always a very professional and reliable serviceMs Hunter 26 Sep, 2022 (10 out of 10)

APH (LGW) Parked and got on the bus to the airport straight away. When we returned we had a delay of 3 hours on our flight. We texted the carpark, got on the bus and the car was ready for pickup. Excellent service, have used before and would definitely recommend.Mr Ferre 17 Sep, 2022 (10 out of 10)

Airparks Meet and Greet (LGW) Mostly great . Except when we had to phone at pick up luggage, your office number said that you was closed for the day and so we could not call ahead for our car . When we got to the car park we had to ask one of your operators to call for us . An avoidable delayMs Andrews 14 Sep, 2022 (8 out of 10)

Maple Parking Meet and Greet (LGW) Very efficient service from booking to parking and collection of the car.Mrs Sheppard 12 Sep, 2022 (10 out of 10)

Airparks Meet and Greet (LGW) pretty hassle free - easy drop off and pick up
might want to make directions a bit clearer as kept missing the immediate turn off as came around corner at N terminal at Gatwick
also directions say to phone 15 mins before arrival but there you just get a message and then guess which option to choose. it didn't appear necessary to call anyway according to the person i eventually spoke to.

Airparks Meet and Greet (LGW) Arrive at Orange car park level 1 (easy to find) and dropped the car no hassle and on return car was in the car park ready for pick up. Brief call made to confirm our arrival. Extra fee was worth it as it saved having to take the bus from remote location and dragging the luggage and family across car parks and the airport.Mr Ghosh 01 Sep, 2022 (10 out of 10)

I Love Meet and Greet (LGW) Used the I love Meet & Greet Service and it could not have been easier or more convenient - no waiting for shuttle buses upon departure or return! Met at the airport drop off zone right outside departures without any wait by a courteous and friendly driver. Simply showed our booking, took our luggage and gave the key over. Given a QR code card with simple to follow instructions upon our return and the car was with us at the same drop-off point within 5 minutes! Showed the original QR code card (but had also photographed it onto my phone just in case) - loaded our luggage and we were already on our way home.

Helpful Advice

Whether you’re heading for a relaxing break or a fun-filled adventure, you can tailor your airport experience to your exact needs.

Before you book:

Before finalizing your Gatwick Airport car parking, consider your travelling requirements. Customers who are travelling with children may want to look at Gatwick parking deals that are good value-for-money (invariably Park and Ride), or perhaps opt for the most straightforward, stress-free service (meet and greet is ideal).

Both Meet and Greet and on-airport parking at Gatwick are ideal for travellers with oversized luggage, such as sports gear, as this equipment is not always permitted on Park and Ride transfer buses.
