Meet & Greet Parking
Drive to the terminal, hand your keys to a fully insured chauffeur and walk straight to check-in. Your car is parked in a secure compound and returned to the terminal on your arrival back at Luton Airport. Best option for time-poor travellers, families and business trips.
Park & Ride Parking
Park your own car in a secure off-airport compound and take a free transfer bus to the terminal — typically every 10–20 minutes, 24/7. The cheapest pre-booked option for Luton and works well for longer stays.
On-Airport Parking
Park inside the Luton perimeter in short-stay, mid-stay or long-stay car parks. Walk or take a free shuttle to the terminal. Most expensive option but the fastest at drop-off.
Drop-off & pickup
Luton charges £5 for terminal drop-off (Mid Term DART zone). Use the Long Term car park with free bus transfer to avoid the fee.
