East Midlands Airport Parking Types

East Midlands Airport has one main, easy-to-navigate terminal. This means your parking choice is a simple one between convenience and value.

East Midlands Meet & Greet Discount: The Easiest Way to Park

This is the most seamless parking option, perfect for travellers who want to avoid any stress. It's the top choice for families, business travellers, or anyone with heavy luggage.

How Meet & Greet Works:

1. Drive to the Terminal: You'll drive your own car directly to the designated "Meet & Greet" area, just outside the terminal.
2. Meet Your Driver: A professional, fully-insured driver will be waiting. They'll confirm your details, take your keys, and complete a quick vehicle check.
3. Walk to Check-in: You are now just a 1-2 minute walk from the check-in desks.
4. On Your Return: After you land and get your luggage, you'll call the number provided. Your car will be brought to the collection point, ready for you to drive home.

Our 20% off voucher makes this premium service surprisingly affordable, often competing with the price of the official on-site "Short Stay" car park.

East Midlands Park and Ride Discount: The Best Option for Value

This is the most popular choice for cheap East Midlands parking. These secure car parks are located just a short bus ride from the airport and offer fantastic savings.

How Park & Ride Works:

1. Drive to the Car Park: You'll navigate to the secure, off-site car park's address (not the airport terminal).
2. Park & Shuttle: You'll park your car, and a free, regular shuttle bus will take you to the terminal. These buses run 24/7, usually every 15-20 minutes, and the transfer time is typically 5-10 minutes.
3. On Your Return: You'll head back to the same bus stop where you were dropped off and take the shuttle back to the car park to collect your car.

This is the definitive budget-friendly option. Our DISCOUNT26 code makes these already-low prices even better.

East Midlands Drop-Off & Pick-Up Charges

This is a critical piece of information. East Midlands' drop-off and pick-up zones are strictly controlled and can be expensive if you don't know the rules.

• Rapid Drop Off (Express): This is the most expensive option, right outside the terminal.
• Price: £5.00 for 15 minutes (rising to £1 per minute thereafter).
• Payment: This is a Barrierless system. You must pay online by midnight the following day to avoid a fine.

• Pick-Up Zone: This is the designated pick-up zone, a 1-2 minute walk from the terminal.
• Price: £6.00 for 30 minutes in the "Short Stay 1" car park.

How to Drop Off & Pick Up at East Midlands Airport for Free

Yes, there is a 100% free option for both drop-off and pick-up.

• Location: The "Long Stay 2" car park.
• How it works: This car park offers 1-hour of free parking.
• The Catch: It is a 15-20 minute walk to the terminal building. (Note: A free shuttle bus operates seasonally from April to September, but you may have to walk in winter). This is the best option for a budget-conscious drop-off where you're not in a rush.

Accessible & Blue Badge Parking at East Midlands

East Midlands provides good support for passengers with reduced mobility.

• Blue Badge Holders: Do NOT use the Rapid Drop Off (it is not free). Instead, use Short Stay 1 where you get 30 minutes of free parking.
• Validation: Drive to the exit barrier and press the intercom button to speak to an operator who will validate your Blue Badge for free exit.
• Meet & Greet: This is an excellent choice for passengers needing assistance, as you are met right at the terminal.
• Park & Ride: All partner shuttle buses are fully accessible for wheelchairs.

Other Discounts (Student, Senior & Military)

Our 20% off code is designed to be the best deal for everyone, saving you the time of searching for a niche discount.

• East Midlands Parking Student Discount: We don't offer a specific student code, as our DISCOUNT26 voucher already provides a 20% saving, which is typically a larger discount.
• Senior / OAP Discount: To get the best price, simply pre-book your parking using our 20% off voucher.
• Military & Armed Forces Discount: As a thank-you, our 20% discount is available for all armed forces members.

"Official" vs. "Partner" Parking at East Midlands

You will see "Official East Midlands JetParks" or "Long Stay" parking advertised. Here’s the difference.

• Official Parking: These are owned by the airport. "JetParks" and "Long Stay" are the official budget options, but they are still often pricier than partner car parks.
• Partner Parking: These are independent, specialist car parks (like our partner Britaincarparks.co.uk) located near the airport. They are fully secure, often hold the 'Park Mark' award, and compete directly on price and service quality.

With our 20% off code, our partner car parks will almost always offer superior value for money.
