Enjoy Hassle-Free Holidays With Value Express

Overview

If you’ve ever travelled during school holidays and peak travel hours, you’ll agree how difficult it can be to get a good airport parking spot. With everyone travelling out of Victoria, parking can get pretty competitive, and you may find yourself circling for a spot longer than you want to or paying more than you have to.

Value Express makes airport parking easier during school holidays. It works just like a valet-service: simply drive up, hand over your keys, and we'll take care of the rest.

Join us as we delve into everything you need to know about making your next trip through Melbourne Airport as hassle-free as possible with Value Express.

What is Value Express?

In a nutshell, Value Express at Melbourne Airport is a valet-style parking solution in the Value North Car Park during peak travel seasons. Book online for the best rates, or upgrade on arrival at the Value North Car Park (subject the availability, and minimum length of stay requirements may apply).

To enjoy this, simply select the Value Express parking option when you book online. Then drive up to our Value North Car Park, show your booking, and hand over your keys to our professional attendant. We’ll park your car in the Value North Car Park’s open-air parking spaces. When you return, it will be brought right back to where you dropped it off. It’s that easy.

Note that this is available only during specific hours on school holidays and is not part of Melbourne Airport’s regular parking offerings. For a detailed schedule of the service’s availability, refer to our Value Express page.

Our free bus service runs every 15 minutes 24/7 and has pick-up and drop-off stations right in front of all the terminals. So, whether you’re flying from the international terminal or catching a domestic flight with Jetstar or Virgin Australia, Value Express Parking makes your trip super convenient without breaking the bank.
