Types of Parking at Nelson Airport

As the fourth busiest airport in New Zealand, Nelson Airport offers travellers a range of car parks to book with, both on-site and off-site, covered and uncovered, and available for short or long-term parking. On-site car parks will be owned and operated by Nelson Airport and generally be more expensive than off-site car parks as they are in closer proximity to the airport terminals.

Off-site car parks, on the other hand, are operated by private companies are going to be more affordably priced, as they are not located on airport grounds. To make up for the distance, most, if not all off-site car parks offer complimentary shuttle transfers to and from Nelson airport.

The car parks that offer shuttle transfers also tend to offer the cheapest Nelson airport parking fees and be the most convenient option for airport parking!
