“ This car park was easy to find, parking was a little on the tight side, but fine. Bus was there took us to airport and on return was the same. I will definitely use this park again. I liked it because there was no hanging about and close to airport.” - Andrew McNeil

Aberdeen Long Stay Parking is the airport’s official budget parking option, with a free shuttle taking less than five minutes. Park in any available bay, keep your keys and take the on-demand bus directly to the terminal.
Previously known as Flightpath, it is designed for longer trips and is normally Aberdeen Airport’s cheapest official car park.
Why choose Aberdeen Long Stay?
Official airport parking: located within Aberdeen Airport grounds.
Free shuttle: the transfer takes less than five minutes.
On-demand service: no fixed timetable or lengthy wait.
Keep your keys: your car remains in the bay you choose.
ANPR entry: the barrier recognises the registration entered when booking.
Secure: CCTV, barriers, patrols and the Police Scotland Safe Car Park Award.
How does Long Stay compare with APH Express?
Both let you park yourself and keep your keys. Long Stay is an official airport car park with a short shuttle, while APH Express is independently operated and around a five-minute walk from the terminal.
Choose Express if you prefer walking straight to check-in. Choose Long Stay when it is cheaper or you would rather take the bus than test Aberdeen’s weather.
How does Long Stay compare with Short Stay?
Short Stay is around a two-minute walk from the terminal and offers mostly covered parking, but it will usually cost more. Long Stay is the better-value option if a short shuttle journey is not a problem.
Important things to know
The car park is open 24 hours, but the shuttle operates from 4am until the final arriving flight. On your return, use the dedicated telephone outside the terminal to request collection. Trailers are not accepted, and vehicles must fit within a standard parking bay.

Easy to book. Easy to find. Easy to park my vehicle. Clean and frequent bus to airport. Easy drop off. Quick respond to request to be picked its bus after a delayed flight. Extremely helpful when on leaving the safety barrier stayed down. Turned out I missed typed a digit of my cars license plate. Very politely and very quickly the issue was resolved with one phone call. Value for money. Will use it again.

Very good facility. Everything went well. Only slight problem was that the bus between airport and long-stay was a bit small. This meant we had to wait in the rain for it to make a journey back and forth before we could get to our car. Otherwise all good.

When we tried to exit the car park the barrier wouldn’t open and the machine said I owed £96, I then went to the kiosk and phoned a number provided and asked if the gate could be opened, fortunately I still had the booking details on my phone which allowed the gate to be opened.

The car park and bus pick ups were fine apart from the ever present seagull mess left all over my vehicle. Disappointing for me was no one picked up on the email I sent the evening before I dropped car off advising that I had made a mistake on original order and due to time difference coming home I required to extend stay by one day. When I came to check out I had to pay full day rate for that extra day and evendentily no email from me was found (although I can't update show copy inmy sent email box). Not that lot in it I guess but would have been could to get a marginal break on price considering thecarsitying there for 12 day!

Disappointed that on trying to exit the car park a charge of £186 was being made,even though the car parking time still had 4 hours left.Also the bus back to the car park doesn't wait for passengers.
