How does Drop & Go parking work?
Book in advance: Drop & Go car parks at Manchester Airport are pre-book only, so book your space ahead of time.
Drive up to the barrier: Our Automatic Number Plate Recognition System will recognise your vehicle’s number plate and open the barrier (no tickets required), while state-of-the-art inspection cameras record the condition of your vehicle.
Drop your vehicle and keys: Pull into a bay, lock your vehicle, and drop your keys at the kiosk. One of our fully-insured drivers will park for you.
Head to your terminal: Drop & Go - T3 is just a 5-minute walk away. For T1 and T2, jump on one of our free shuttle buses – they run 24/7. Drop & Go Express - T2 is a 12-15 min walk, and T3 is just a 1 minute walk.
When you return: Walk or take the shuttle bus back to your car park. Collect your keys from a locker, and your vehicle will be waiting in our dedicated returns area.
