Melbourne airport parking

Melbourne Airport (MEL) is Australia’s second-busiest airport after Sydney Airport. Locally known as Tullamarine Airport, it sees over 30 million domestic and international passengers every year.

Melbourne Airport has a variety of parking options to suit your needs and budget, including both short-term and long-term parking. Ideal for short-term stays, Terminal Parking is located directly outside Terminals 1, 2, and 3, with rates starting from $14 for the first hour.

For those looking for flexibility, Melbourne Airport’s Value Parking offers affordable rates with a free 24/7 shuttle to all terminals. If you need closer access to the terminals, Premium Parking is a more convenient option, but it can get expensive, starting from $49 per day. Valet Parking lets you drop off your car at the terminal entrance for staff to park it, but it comes at a higher cost, starting from $60 per day.
