Is the airport's own parking cheaper than park and ride at Birmingham?
The cheapest type of parking here is park and ride, from £88.97 for 8 days, which is £10.00 less than the cheapest on-airport car park (£98.97).
Today the airport's own car parks start at £98.97 (Car Park 5 - Flex Plus (N)), park and ride at £88.97 (Airparks Drop and Go) and meet and greet at £100.28 (Platinum Valet - Approved Meet & Greet). At Birmingham the on-airport car parks are not automatically the dear option, so compare all three.
How much is a week's parking at Birmingham Airport?
Booked through us, a week away (an 8-day stay, counting the day you fly and the day you land) starts at £88.97. Turning up without a booking costs far more: Birmingham Airport charges £67 for every 24 hours in Car Parks 1 to 5, which is £536 for eight days, and even Car Park 7 comes to £359 at £51 for the first day and £44 for each day after.
Park and ride versus meet and greet
- Park and ride: you park at an off-site car park and take a shuttle to the terminal. Usually the cheaper of the two, with a short shuttle leg at each end.
- Meet and greet: you hand the car over at the airport and a driver parks it for you. More convenient, with no shuttle.
Does booking early make Birmingham Airport parking cheaper?
Each day we price an identical 8-day Birmingham stay starting 2, 14, 30 and 60 days out. In our latest check, a stay starting in two months was £41.40 cheaper than one starting in two days. Booking a fortnight ahead saved £6.22. The cheapest price at each window in our latest check (8 October 2026):
| Stay starting in | Cheapest for 8 days |
|---|---|
| 2 days | £95.19 |
| 14 days | £88.97 |
| 30 days | £38.97 |
| 60 days | £53.79 |
Compare the rows rather than assuming earlier is always cheaper, then book once your dates are fixed.
How much is drop-off at Birmingham Airport?
Premium Set Down, right outside the terminal, is listed at £8 for up to 15 minutes on Birmingham Airport's turn-up price list, though its drop-off page still quotes £7. More detail is in our Birmingham drop-off charges guide.
How do you get the cheapest Birmingham parking?
- Book ahead rather than paying at the barrier. The gate rate is several times the cheapest pre-booked price.
- Compare the airport's own car parks with park and ride and meet and greet. The cheapest type changes with your dates.
- Book once your dates are fixed. The lowest-priced spaces sell out first in the school holidays.
