For those who prioritise convenience, Terminal Parking hits the mark. Positioned right outside Terminals 1, 2, 3, and just 100m from Terminal 4, it's one of the quickest ways to move from your car to check-in.

With the first 15 minutes free, it's perfect for quick drop-offs or pick-ups. And if you're flying out, booking online ensures you get the best rates. The car parks offer direct access to the terminals via link bridges, and there's accessible parking close to the lifts.

Heading into Melbourne Airport and hunting for a parking deal that won't break the bank? Value Parking is the best option for you.
