Park and Ride Cairns Airport

The Park and Ride option is a popular and convenient choice for parking at Cairns Airport. With this parking type, you simply drive directly to the car park, park your vehicle, and then board a shuttle bus that takes you to the airport terminal. The process is similar for your return journey. Upon landing, a quick call to the parking provider will arrange for a shuttle to pick you up and bring you back to your car. The shuttle journey duration varies depending on each parking provider's location, as some may be situated further from the airport than others. For precise details, you can find the estimated travel time from the car park to the terminal on each parking provider's profile page, which we recommend checking for a smoother parking experience.

One huge advantage of Park and Ride is its affordability. As the parking lots are typically located slightly farther from the airport terminal, they can offer lower rates. However, rest assured that a complimentary and comfortable shuttle bus will ensure you reach the airport with ample time. Additionally, many Park and Ride providers offer the option to add special extras to your booking, such as car cleaning or servicing, providing added convenience and customization to suit your needs.
