Bournemouth Airport Parking Options

Thanks to being one of the smaller UK airports, Bournemouth Airport is a pretty easy place to be flying from and parking at Bournemouth Airport should be easy-peasy too!

It’s time for a whistle-stop tour of the Official Bournemouth Airport Parking options. Along the way, we'll discover some very dull names for some excellent car parks.

Official Bournemouth Airport Parking Options

As with all airports, Bournemouth Airport offers a number of official parking options. As is usually the case, these options are rarely the cheapest, but they are usually the most convenient.

Premium Car Park 1

Premium Car Park 1 earns its right to use the word “premium” by offering notably wide car parking spaces and two Fast Track passes per booking.

Fast Track is basically a VIP pass that allows you to scoot past the main queue at security in a brisk fashion, potentially saving you a lot of time and stress, especially during peak times.

Furthermore, thanks to the location of Premium Car Park 1, you're only a hop and a skip (a 3-minute walk) from the terminal.

As with most fancy things, Premium Car Park 1 can sell out and is only available to those who book in advance, not to worry for you because we think booking in advance is probably your intention.

Car Park 2

Car Park 2 doesn't give us a lot to say really, but it does offer great convenience being close enough to the terminal to not require a transfer. Walking time is up to 10 minutes.

It's best to book Car Park 2 in advance to get a good price and secure a spot.

Car Park 3

Car Park 3 is a great option given its proximity to both Arrivals and Departures. Once you've parked up, we estimate you'll find yourself in the departures hall within about 5 minutes, on foot. No need to heave your bags onto a shuttle bus!

Those who book Car Park 3 in advance will be most likely to grab a good price and the Official website states that availability is limited, so it’s best to bag a deal now.

Unofficial Bournemouth Airport Parking Options

Unofficial parking is provided by companies not directly associated with the airport. They use off-site car parks, so you have a little further to travel, but they are usually cheaper.

There are two main options here: Park & Ride and Meet & Greet. You can use our Bournemouth Airport parking search to find cheap options for both of them.

Park & Ride

Park your car in the company’s car park, hop on a shuttle bus, and ride it to the airport. These buses run throughout the day and they’ll get you to the terminal in just a few minutes.

Meet & Greet

Drive your car to the terminal, hop out, and then hand your keys to a valet. They will take over from there, driving your car to a secure location while you enjoy your holiday. On your return, just give them a call and arrange a time and place to collect your vehicle.
