Pick Up & Drop Off for Blue Badge Holders

You can pay online: pay.manchesterairport.co.uk

Or by phone: 0345 901 3318

Payments cannot be made using cash or cheque. Additionally, no payment for our drop-off and pick-up areas can be made upon exiting, as there are no payment barriers in these areas. If payment is not received by midnight the following day, a £100.00 Parking Charge Notice will be issued, which will be reduced to £60.00 if paid within 14 days.

Payment must be made by midnight the day after your visit to avoid a Parking Charge being sent to the registered vehicle holder.

You can set up an account and add a payment card, which will automatically take payment after each journey through one of the barrierless drop-up or pick-up areas. To do this, please visit: pay.manchesterairport.co.uk

Please note it is your responsibility to ensure there is a valid payment method on your account before using a drop-off or pick-up area.

If you do not pre-register or pay as a guest before midnight the next day, a Parking Charge will be sent to the registered vehicle holder.
