How does Mid Stay parking work?
Say goodbye to stressful planning and parking, and follow these 4 simple steps:
Book in advance: The Mid Stay car parks at Manchester Airport are pre-book only, so remember to book your space ahead of time.
Park up: On the day just drive up. Our ANPR system will recognise your vehicle’s number plate and open the barrier (no tickets required). Choose a space, park up, and lock your vehicle.
Walk to your terminal: No shuttle bus is required. Manchester Airport Mid Stay car park is just a 10-minute covered walk to Terminal 2 via the Skylink. If you’re flying with Ryanair, T1/T3 Mid Stay is only a 5–10 minute walk to Terminals 1 or 3.
When you return: Find your vehicle right where you left it. The barrier will recognise your number plate again when you leave, and you can just drive away.
Where is the Mid Stay car park located?
