Park and Ride Melbourne Airport

For any traveller looking for easy and cheap parking at Melbourne Airport, Park and Ride is an excellent choice for you. With this parking type, you drive straight to the parking garage. Once you have arrived, you can securely park your car and take all your bags. You can then take a complimentary shuttle bus to the airport. Then, when you are returning to Melbourne, you can board a shuttle bus back to the car park, and collect your car. The process really is that quick and simple.

As for the affordability of Park and Ride, the car parks tend to be located slightly further from the airport – as you take a shuttle to the terminal. This allows for the parking provider to lower their parking rates. Additionally, as you park your car yourself, prices can be much lower. If you are looking for a more premium service, where you do not need to park your own car and can drive straight to the terminal, then we recommend looking at Valet Parking at Melbourne Airport.

If you wish to add any additional services to your booking then you can also do this at the reception.

Then, when you are returning to Melbourne, you simply have to call the parking provider. This is so you can arrange for the shuttle bus to come and collect you. We recommend making this call once you have landed, or whilst waiting for your bags, so that once you leave the airport the shuttle should already be waiting for you.
