With just over half a million passengers visiting every year, Bournemouth International is one of the of the smallest airports in the United Kingdom. However, due to its small size, the parking options at Bournemouth International are much more limited compared to those of the bigger airports. It can be just as hard to find a space at Bournemouth Airport as it would be at Manchester, Gatwick or Heathrow so we’ve got a few handy tips to help you get an edge and find the perfect spot.

Pick-up & Drop-off at Bournemouth Airport

Bournemouth International have made picking-up and dropping-off a breeze. Simply pay a small fee and you’ll be able to stay for up to 30 minutes in the designated pick-up and drop-off zone. However, if you’re planning to stay longer than 30 minutes prices steeply rise in the zone, making short-stay parking a better option.

Bournemouth Airport Short-stay Parking

Visitors can book short-stay parking in either Carpark 1 or 2 but most choose to book in the first as it is much closer to the doors of the terminal. However, if you’d like to be parked even closer to the terminal there’s also the option to book premium parking which is less than 3 minutes away from the terminal doors on-foot. Both Carpark 1 and 2 double as long-stay parking so those planning to leave their car while they fly simply need to book for a longer period.
