 Cardiff Airparks Return Greet Parking
Will my car be safe?
Airparks is fenced and floodlit and has 24-hour patrols and CCTV. This car park has been awarded the Park Mark, a national security award accredited by the Association of Chief Police Officers. Before being awarded the Park Mark, car parks have to be inspected by the police. They have to have modern security measures, such as alarms and CCTV, and be clean and well-lit. Car parks which have been awarded the Park Mark are regularly reinspected by the police. Parking is always at the vehicle owner's own risk.
What do I do upon arrival?
On arrival at Airparks Cardiff, park in one of the marked bays and report to reception. You will now be able to experience the fast track check-in service, eliminating the queues at reception by using our new computer check in point. Alternatively, please present your printed email confirmation or quote your booking reference, then hand in your car keys. Your car will be parked for you while you transfer to the airport. Cardiff airport will be making essential security changes to the front of the terminal. Therefore the transfer bus will not be able to stop directly outside the terminal.
