Airparks Express Parking

Airparks Express Parking Aberdeen is a secure off-airport car park around a five-minute walk from the terminal. Drive through the ANPR barrier, choose an available bay and keep your keys. There is no shuttle or key handover.

The car park is at International Gate, close enough to provide much the same convenience as on-airport parking while often costing less.

Why choose Airparks Express?

• Five-minute walk: no transfer bus required.
• Keep your keys: your car stays where you parked it.
• ANPR entry and exit: the barriers recognise your registration.
• Open 24 hours: suitable for early and late flights.
• Secure site: CCTV, fencing, barriers, floodlighting and regular patrols.
• Accessible bays: with dipped kerbs and ramps near reception.

How does Airparks Express compare with Aberdeen Long Stay?

Both are self-parking options where you keep your keys. Airparks Express is a five-minute walk from the terminal, while the official Long Stay car park uses a short on-demand shuttle.

Choose Airparks Express if you prefer walking straight to check-in. Choose Long Stay when it is cheaper or a shuttle is more convenient than carrying luggage on foot.

Is it different from the other Express products?

Airparks Express, APH Express, Holiday Extras Express and Purple Parking Express are branded rates using the same International Gate car park and essentially the same service.

Compare the live prices and cancellation terms rather than paying more for a different name on the booking confirmation.

Important things to know

Standard vehicles must fit within a 2.4m by 4.8m bay. Longer spaces are available towards the rear for some larger vehicles, but trailers, commercial vehicles and vehicles with nine or more seats are not accepted. Airparks Express Charge & Go is a separate product where you leave your keys.

Directions

Arrival procedure

When you get to the car park, drive up to the barrier. It will recognise your car reg and lift to let you in.

Return procedure

When you get back, find your car and drive to the exit. The barrier will recognise your car reg and lift so you can exit the car park.

CCTV

Accessibility

The car park has accessible parking bays and is around a 5-minute walk from the terminal, there's no need for a shuttle bus.
