The time of year
Location in regards to the terminal
How far in advance you make your car park booking.

Why is there no availability for the dates I am trying to book?

There are many reasons for this including:

The car park is fully booked for all or part of your stay
You do not meet the booking conditions for that product
Discounted products are only available for certain dates and have a fixed allocation of spaces for these dates.

It is very unlikely you will find no availability, so if this is the case please contact our call centre for assistance on 0845 644 0659.

What happens after I have made my booking?

You will receive an on-screen confirmation detailing booking reference and instructions. Please print this page for your records as you will need this information at the airport. We will also send you a confirmation email with some helpful tips and information for getting to the airport and making the most of your time here at Liverpool John Lennon Airport.

What if my flight is delayed and I go over my pre-booked parking period?

Overstay rates vary depending on which car park you are parked in. Overstay charges are payable per day, or part thereof, and are as follows:

Long Stay Car Park is £15 per day, or part thereof
Multi-Storey Car Park is £20 per day, or part thereof
Fast Track and Fast Track Family Car Park is charged at £35 per day or part thereof.

I need to change my booking, what do I need to do?

You can change your booking dates via the online ‘Manage my Booking’ tool. We don’t charge an administration fee for changes. Please note, some products such as Price Buster are non-amendable – this is clearly displayed on the car park description page.

Although we do not charge an administration charge for changes, please note there may be an additional charge depending on what you wish to change your dates to. For instance, if you originally booked an 8 day stay, but now wish to extend your booking to 10 days, you will be charged for the additional two days stay. Another example would be if you wish to change a week’s parking in March to July, an additional charge may be payable due to a difference in price for parking in a busy period.

I need to cancel my booking, what do I need to do?

You can cancel your booking via the link on your confirmation email, or by either emailing parking@liverpoolairport.com or speaking with a member of our team on 0845 644 0659. Cancellations are not permitted less than 24 hours before car park arrival and may be subject to administrative fees depending on the type of booking.

We always try to offer the cheapest parking for Liverpool Airport travellers at all times but from time to time we will have special offers and discount voucher codes for airport parking. Our >Airport Parking Promotion Code page will have details on any current Discount Codes. Also be sure to sign up for our newsletter so we can keep you informed of any special offers.

What is the Red Route No Stopping Zone?

A Red Route No Stopping Zone is in operation at Liverpool John Lennon Airport. This means you cannot stop or park your vehicle at any time to ensure the safety and security of everyone visiting the airport.

Don’t worry, you’ll know if you’re in the Red Route No Stopping Zone as it is clearly marked by double red lines on the carriageways. There are also over 80 high profile signs, which advise drivers that they are entering a Restricted Zone as well as ‘No Stopping at Any Time’ signs.

Anyone who chooses to disregard the No Stopping zone and does stop on the Red Route will be subject to a penalty charge notice, as detailed on the signs.

What do I do on my return from holiday?

For the Meet and Greet Car Park, go to the key collect area to collect your car keys. For all other car parks, arrive at the exit barrier and insert your car park ticket. The barrier will then raise automatically allowing you to exit.

If the system failed to recognise your vehicle on entry, before collecting your vehicle take your ticket and a copy of your booking confirmation to the Car Park Office (ground floor of the Multi-Storey Car Park), where your ticket will be validated for exit.

Any additional stays outside the pre-booked period will be charged at the standard tariff, which can either be paid at the car park office or at the pay on foot machines located on the ground floor of the Multi-Storey Car Park. This should be paid prior to collecting your vehicle.

What is the car parks address?

Liverpool John Lennon Airport, L24 1YD. The airport is also well sign-posted, and we recommend that drivers follow signage to the airport terminal.

How do I get to the car park?

The Long Stay and Multi Storey car parks can be accessed by turning left on the roundabout when approaching the airport terminal.

The Fast Track Car Park can be accessed by turning left off the dual-carriageway as you approach the terminal building, following green signs for RVP. After half a mile turn right, following signs for Fast Track Car Park.
