What parking options are available at Luton Airport?
Five parking types serve Luton Airport: drop and go, park and ride, meet and greet, valet, and the official terminal car parks. Each type suits a different budget and trip length, from £3.92 a day to £91.33 for a 7-night stay at gate rate.
What is drop and go parking?
Drop and go parking means driving to an off-airport compound, parking yourself, keeping your keys, and taking a free shuttle. It is the cheapest category at Luton, from £3.92 a day.
What is park and ride?
Park and ride works the same way as drop and go — you park yourself and take a shuttle — with journeys of 5 to 20 minutes depending on the operator.
What is meet and greet?
Meet and greet parking has a driver collect your car at the terminal, so there is no shuttle. Prices start from £45.23 for 7 nights.
What is valet parking?
Valet parking adds a car wash to meet and greet, though it is not widely offered as a distinct product at Luton.
What are the official Luton Airport car parks?
London Luton Airport operates four official car parks plus a rebranded meet and greet service: Terminal Car Park 1 (4-minute walk), Terminal Car Park 2 (5-minute walk), Mid Stay (10-minute walk, no shuttle) and Long Stay (10-minute shuttle). All hold Park Mark Safer Parking accreditation.
Terminal Car Park 1
TCP1 is the closest official car park to departures, connected by a direct link bridge, with Blue Badge bays on Levels 0 and 1 and a 2.1-metre height limit.

Mid Stay
Mid Stay is a 10-minute walk with no shuttle, no height limit, and free motorcycle parking for 14 days.
Long Stay
Long Stay is free for the first 2 hours and served by a 24-hour shuttle every 20 minutes, but is not walkable to the terminal.
Priority Parking
Priority Parking is Luton Airport's own self-service meet and greet, using Level 2 of Terminal Car Park 1.
