Manchester Airport parking prices range from around £4 to £6 per day at the budget JetParks car parks in off-peak periods up to premium walk-to-terminal rates at Meet & Greet and the Multi-Storey car parks. This page is the full price reference for every official car park at Manchester Airport, with pre-booked rates by duration and the drive-up rate where one exists. All prices were checked in June 2026 against the official Manchester Airport booking engine and major parking aggregators. Where the booking engine only publishes a single from price, we give an indicative range for other durations and label it as such. Because the airport uses dynamic pricing, treat every figure here as a starting point and always confirm the live rate for your exact dates.

Meet & Greet Parking Prices at Manchester Airport
Meet & Greet is the premium valet product at Manchester Airport. You drive to a reception area next to the terminal, hand over your keys, and a professional driver parks your car in a secure compound. The Terminal 2 service operates from P1. The Terminal 3 service (P13) is closing to new bookings in late March 2026, with Drop & Go Express (P10) as the alternative. Meet & Greet is pre-book only and has a minimum stay of 4 days, so it is not sold for overnight or weekend-only trips. As of June 2026, the official booking engine lists an 8 day stay from £89.99.

Multi-Storey Parking Prices at Manchester Airport
The Multi-Storey car parks (P1 East and P3 West at Terminal 2, P14 at Terminal 3) are the closest self-park option, with a walk of between 1 and 8 minutes to check-in, covered for most of the route. They carry the highest per-day prices of any official car park, and they are the only car parks where you can turn up without a booking. The gap between the pre-booked and drive-up price is dramatic: as of June 2026 a 4 day pre-booked stay starts from around £65, while the same 4 days at the drive-up rate costs around £239.20. Note the 2.0 metre height limit, and that the barrierless P3 has no payment machines, so payment is online only by midnight the next day. Terminal 2 has the widest choice of close-in car parks, covered in full in our Terminal 2 parking guide.

Mid Stay Parking Prices at Manchester Airport
Mid Stay parking (P12 for Terminal 2, P15 for Terminal 3) sits between the Multi-Storey and JetParks on price. No shuttle bus is needed: P12 is a 10 to 20 minute walk to Terminal 2 via the covered Skylink walkway, and P15 is an 8 to 10 minute walk to Terminal 3. Mid Stay is pre-book only. As of June 2026, the official booking engine lists an 8 day stay from £85, which works out at a little over £10 per day for that duration.

JetParks (P5 to P8, covering JetParks 1, 2, 3 and Ringway) is the lowest-priced official parking at Manchester Airport. As of June 2026 the official booking engine lists an 8 day stay from £59.99, which works out at about £7.50 per day for that example stay, while rates in the quietest periods can drop to roughly £4 to £6 per day. Aggregators show JetParks Ringway from around £62.98 for 8 days. The free shuttle bus runs 24/7 and takes around 6 minutes to the terminals. JetParks is pre-book only with a minimum stay of 48 hours, and vehicles need a valid MOT.

Drop & Go Parking Prices at Manchester Airport
Drop & Go (P16, plus Drop & Go Express at P10) is a valet-style product priced below Meet & Greet. You drive in, hand over your keys, and a driver parks your car while you walk to the terminal. The airport quotes 5 to 15 minutes to the terminal for Drop & Go (P16), while Drop & Go Express (P10) is just 2 minutes from Terminal 3 Departures. As of June 2026, the official booking engine lists an 8 day Drop & Go stay from £69.99, making it around £20 cheaper than Meet & Greet for the same duration. It is pre-book only. Note that Drop & Go is a parking product for travellers: if you only need to drop a passenger at the kerb, the forecourt charge starts at £5 for 5 minutes and is covered separately in our drop-off charges guide.

Pre-Booked vs Drive-Up Prices: The 77% Difference
The single biggest factor in what you pay for Manchester Airport parking is whether you book in advance. The airport states that pre-booking online saves up to 77% compared to the turn up price, and the published figures bear this out. As of June 2026, a 4 day Multi-Storey stay costs from around £65 pre-booked but around £239.20 at the drive-up rate, a difference of more than £170 for exactly the same space.
For most car parks the comparison does not even apply, because there is no drive-up option at all. Meet & Greet, Drop & Go, Mid Stay, and all JetParks car parks are pre-book only. Turn Up and Park exists solely on the ground floors of the Multi-Storey car parks at Terminal 2 and Terminal 3, where availability is limited during peak periods. One caution for drive-up customers: T2 West Multi-Storey (P3) is barrierless with no payment machines on site. If you use it without a booking, you must pay at pay.manchesterairport.co.uk by midnight the following day or a £100 parking charge will apply.
Off-Site and Third Party Parking Prices Near Manchester Airport
Beyond the official car parks, a large market of off-site operators competes on price around Manchester Airport. As a category, off-airport park and ride sites along routes such as the A538 typically price from around £4.50 to £7 per day pre-booked, with shuttle transfers of 5 to 15 minutes. Off-site meet and greet services generally start from around £8 per day, undercutting the official valet products on longer stays. Aggregator listings in June 2026 show third party options near the airport from roughly £5.50 to £7 per day.
Prices in this category vary far more than the official car parks because quality, distance, and transfer frequency differ from site to site. The headline daily rate is not the whole picture: check the transfer time, operating hours, and cancellation terms before judging a deal purely on price. Comparison platforms such as JustPark also list private driveways and spaces near the airport from as little as £6 per day, which can suit travellers happy to walk or take a short taxi ride.
What Makes Manchester Airport Parking Prices Change
Every official car park at Manchester Airport uses dynamic pricing, meaning the price for the same space on the same dates moves up and down with demand. Understanding the drivers helps you time your booking:
- Booking lead time: Prices generally rise as the travel date approaches. Booking 4 to 8 weeks in advance typically secures the best rates, and last-minute bookings during busy weeks can cost double the early rate or more.
- School holidays and peak season: The summer peak from late June to early September, October half term, Christmas, and Easter carry the highest prices across every car park. Midweek departures in November, January, and February are usually the cheapest.
- Demand by car park: Meet & Greet and the Multi-Storey car parks sell out fastest during school holidays, which pushes their prices up sooner than JetParks. The cheaper the product, the more capacity it tends to have.
- Duration quirks: Per-day pricing is not linear. An 8 day JetParks stay from £59.99 works out cheaper per day than a 3 day stay, so short trips pay a higher daily rate across every category.
- Discount codes: Signing up to the airport's newsletter unlocks parking discounts of up to 20%, which stack on top of the early booking saving.
How to Read the Prices on This Page
- Official from prices: Figures marked as official from prices were taken from the Manchester Airport booking engine in June 2026, based on the airport's published example stays.
- Indicative ranges: Where the booking engine does not publish a fixed figure for a duration, we give a realistic range based on the published per-day rates and aggregator data. Your exact dates may fall outside these ranges in peak weeks.
- Prices move daily: Dynamic pricing means the rate you see today may not be the rate tomorrow. If you see a good price for your dates, book it, especially with free cancellation included.
- Check the P-number: All car parks were renumbered P1 to P16 on 5 March 2026. Your booking confirmation shows the P-number and the correct sat nav postcode for your specific car park.
Prices on the official booking engine and third party platforms can differ for the same dates, so it pays to check both before you commit. You can compare a full range of options near Manchester Airport in one place below.

How much is overnight parking at Manchester Airport?
The Multi-Storey car parks are the main option for overnight or single day stays, with pre-booked 24 hour rates typically in the £25 to £40 range depending on dates. These are indicative figures, as the booking engine prices each date individually. Most other products are not suitable for one night: JetParks has a minimum stay of 48 hours, and Meet & Greet requires a minimum 4 day stay. If you turn up at the Multi-Storey without a booking, expect to pay considerably more than the pre-booked rate.
Are Manchester Airport parking prices cheaper online?
Yes. Pre-booking online is almost always cheaper than paying on the day, and Manchester Airport states that booking in advance can save up to 77% compared to the turn up price. The gap is largest at the Multi-Storey car parks, where a 4 day pre-booked stay starts from around £65 but the same stay at the drive-up rate costs around £239.20. Most other official car parks, including JetParks, Mid Stay, Drop & Go, and Meet & Greet, are pre-book only, so an online booking is the only way to use them at all.
How much is drive-up parking at Manchester Airport?
Drive-up parking, known as Turn Up and Park, is only available at the Multi-Storey car parks at Terminal 2 and Terminal 3. As of June 2026, a 4 day drive-up stay costs around £239.20, compared to a pre-booked from price of about £65 for the same duration. Note that T2 West Multi-Storey (P3) is barrierless with no on-site payment machines, so drive-up customers there must pay online at pay.manchesterairport.co.uk by midnight the following day or face a £100 parking charge.
Do Manchester Airport parking prices include the shuttle bus?
Yes. The JetParks shuttle bus is included in the price of your parking. It runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and the journey to the terminals takes around 6 minutes, with a total transfer allowance of about 30 minutes recommended. The Multi-Storey, Mid Stay, Meet & Greet, and Drop & Go products do not use a shuttle at all, as they are within walking distance of the terminals, so there is no extra transport cost with any official Manchester Airport car park.
When are Manchester Airport parking prices cheapest?
Manchester Airport parking prices are cheapest when you book early for off-peak dates. Booking 4 to 8 weeks in advance typically secures the best rates, and prices for the same car park can more than double as the travel date approaches. School holidays, bank holiday weekends, and the summer peak from late June to early September carry the highest prices, while midweek departures in quieter months such as November, January, and February are usually the cheapest. Signing up to the airport's newsletter can also unlock a discount of up to 20%.
