Where Exactly Do You Go?

Level 3, Terminal Car Park — That's It

London Luton Airport has a single terminal building, which keeps things simple. The terminal car park is a multi-storey structure attached directly to the terminal. When you drive to Luton Airport for a meet and greet booking with Airport Parking Bay, follow signs for Short Stay / Terminal Car Park and head to Level 3.

Level 3 is where our drivers are stationed. You do not need to go to any other level or any other car park. If you are unsure at any point, email us at customercare@airportparkingbay.co.uk and we will help you.

Once you have handed your keys to our driver, you are typically less than 3 minutes walk from the terminal check-in area. No shuttle bus. No lugging bags across a car park. Just walk straight in.

Your Step-by-Step Guide

How to Drop Off Your Car at Luton Airport

Follow these steps for a smooth, stress-free drop-off with Airport Parking Bay at London Luton Airport.

1

Drive to Luton Airport Terminal Car Park

On arrival at London Luton Airport, follow the signs for Short Stay Parking or Terminal Car Park. You are heading for the multi-storey car park directly connected to the terminal building. The postcode for sat-nav is LU2 9QT — this takes you to the main terminal approach.

Allow enough time — aim to arrive at the airport at least 2.5 to 3 hours before your departure time for long-haul or 2 hours for short-haul flights.
2

Go to Level 3

Once you enter the terminal car park, take the ramp or follow signs to reach Level 3. This is where Airport Parking Bay operates. Park temporarily in any available space on Level 3 — you will only be there for a few minutes while our driver checks your vehicle.

Level 3 is not the roof. It is the third floor of the multi-storey terminal car park. Follow the level markers on the pillars.

Vehicle Inspection and Key Handover

Our driver will carry out a vehicle condition check before accepting the keys. Existing marks or scratches are photographed and noted. This typically takes a few minutes.

Have your booking confirmation reference ready to speed up the handover process.

Walk Directly into the Terminal

Once the keys are handed over, you are done. The terminal entrance from Level 3 is a short walk — typically under 3 minutes. Head for check-in and departures. Your car will be moved to its parking space by our driver while you go through security.

On Return: Call Us When You Land

When your return flight lands at Luton, email us at customercare@airportparkingbay.co.uk. We track all inbound flights so we will often already be preparing your vehicle. Head to Level 3 and your car will be returned to you as soon as you clear arrivals and customs.
