airport parking comparison

Comparing airport parking in Australia is like choosing a seat on a budget airline: they’ll all get you there, but some bruise your patience more than your wallet. On-airport is closest and usually priciest; off-airport lots are cheaper but add a shuttle and a few minutes’ faffing. Look for inclusions like 24/7 access, covered bays, EV charging, and actual security rather than a bloke with a clipboard. Check for sneaky extras—public holiday surcharges, oversized vehicle fees, and “we kept your keys” valet rules—then weigh them against departure times. Book early for sales, stack member discounts, and make sure cancellation terms won’t sting if your plans do a backflip. If you’re travelling with kids or surfboards, convenience trumps a ten‑buck saving every time.
