Where should I park when picking up and dropping off disabled passengers?
The pickup and drop-off car park is available for disabled passengers to use, for a reduced fee. The standard fee is £7 for a 10-minute stay. Passengers who are travelling and are also blue badge holders can use the site for 60 minutes for a £7 fee, allowing 6 times the amount of time for the same fee. We have multiple disabled bays within this car park and is only 1 minute from the terminal front.* Alternatively, we offer a 1-hour free zone which is an approx 5-10 minute walk from the terminal available to all passengers. Disabled passengers are also able to park within the dedicated disabled bays within the mid-stay car park, which shares an entrance with the 1-hour free zone. These spaces are next to our complimentary shuttle bus service, which is fully compatible for customers with mobility issues and this bus service will offer complimentary transit to the terminal building. Please follow the signs for disabled parking to locate the blue badge bays. *In order to receive the discount, blue badge holders must produce their blue badge, plus a travel document (Passport, booking confirmation or Boarding pass) to the Special Assistance desk located within the main entrance of the terminal building. Only travelling blue badge holders can receive the discount. If a non-blue badge customer is being dropped off/collected by a blue badge holder, the discounted rate will not be honoured.
