Space description
The closest off-airport car park. It's a smooth service from a familiar name.
Need to know
Park in an arrivals lane and head to reception. Show the team a copy of your booking confirmation and leave your keys. Your car will be parked for you while you take the shuttle bus to the airport.
Buses run regularly, take around 4 minutes, and are included in the price. Transfers run from 3.45am (15 minutes before Southend Airport opens) until the airport closes, so you can collect your vehicle whenever you arrive, even if your flight is delayed.
The shuttle bus will drop you at the Off-Site Parking bus stop, which is less than a 2-minute walk to the terminal.
When you get back the bus will pick you up where you were dropped off.
Accessibility
There are 3 accessible parking spaces - please call us before you book to request one.
Unfortunately, the shuttle bus isn't wheelchair accessible. We'd recommend searching for a meet and greet package instead, as a shuttle bus isn't required.
Security
Your car's in safe hands. We only work with trusted car parks that take care of your car like it's their own. While your car's with them, it's fully protected – so you can head off without a second thought.
The car park has the Park Mark award and is secured by
CCTV
Fencing
24-hour staff presence

Early or late? The car park offers a grace period of up to midnight on the date you have booked to collect your car. If you go into the next day you will be charged the standard rate of £20 per day. Please note this is subject to change.
Most standard cars (without trailers/not commercial vehicles) will be accepted at the car park as long as they fit in a standard-size parking bay (2.4m x 4.8m).
The car park cannot accept vehicles with 8 or more seats. If you're bringing a long wheel based vehicle you'll be required to pay an additional supplement on arrival at the car park. The supplement will equal half of the total cost of the booking.
