Wellington Airport offers a range of parking options to suit every one - from budget-friendly off-site parking with a quick shuttle to the terminal, to closer on-site options, and even a convenient valet service. Your choice will depend on budget, preferred distance, and level of service.
Off-site car parks offer the best deals, while official airport car parks and valet service provide added convenience for a higher fee.
Park-and-ride facilities offer some of the most competitive prices for airport parking, providing a budget-friendly alternative to on-site options. Located a few minutes drive from the terminals, these car parks include free shuttle transfers to and from the terminal. Booking is simple—reserve a spot online, bring your confirmation, and load the on-demand shuttle bus to the terminal.
On your return to Wellington, you’ll need to give the car park a call, so they know to come and collect you. They will drive you back to their parking facility, so you can collect your vehicle and drive home in the comfort of your own car.
Arrival: On the day of departure, drive to the address of the chosen car park. You can park your car here, and you will then be taken to the airport as quickly as possible in one of the shuttle buses from the car park.
Return: On the day of return, after landing, contact the car park by phone, then a shuttle bus will be driven to the airport to pick you up and take you back to the car park.
Just a quick 5-minute drive from the terminal, Windy Depot Wellington, formerly Park and Depart Wellington, offers both covered and open-air parking, along with vehicle grooming services—so you can return to a spotless car. Open 24/7, it’s convenient for both early-morning and late-night flights.

If you are looking for parking near Wellington Airport, several car parks offer a range of options to suit most budgets. You can choose between covered or uncovered parking, budget or premium, plus short- or long-term stay durations. Most of these car parks are within easy walking distance of Departures and Arrivals, so you will pay a little extra on this basis. If you prefer to park right outside the terminal building, you’ll need to book directly with Wellington Airport.
Arrival: If you pre-booked online, just drive up to the entry gate at the Uncovered Car Park, and the license plate recognition system will issue a ticket and open the gate automatically. Remember to keep the ticket for exiting. If you haven’t pre-booked, you can still drive up on your departure day and take a ticket at the gate. Payment is made upon exit.
Return: If you pre-booked your parking spot, drive up to the exit barrier. As long as there are no outstanding or overstay charges, the barrier will automatically lift for you. If there are additional charges or the barrier does not open, you'll need to insert the ticket received upon entry to exit.
If you didn’t pre-book, payment can be made by credit card or payWave at the exit barrier, or with cash or EFTPOS at the pay stations. Electronic payments are also accepted at the Parking Services office.

Arrival: You drive to the valet buffer zone of the chosen car park and drop off your car here. After a short inspection, you can make your way to the airport and a driver will ensure that your car is parked.

Available for all flights, valet parking starts at $69.00 for one day. Enhance your experience with optional car grooming services, available online or upon arrival.
If you plan to travel longer than a few hours or 1 - 2 days, a long-term car park at Wellington Airport will be your best bet for reasonable parking rates.

However, parking here can still come with the risk of a ticket, as restrictions may vary. Cairns Street and the end of Coutts Street are other popular options, where travellers can park and walk through a pedestrian tunnel under the runway to reach the terminal.
Please note that these areas may be ticketed or towed, so it's best to check local parking signs for any time restrictions or towing policies before leaving your car.
