Locals flying out of Auckland International Airport or welcoming loved ones home can now enjoy convenient, new parking options.

Auckland Airport recently opened the upper levels of its new Transport Hub, offering over 2,000 covered parking spaces just steps from the International terminal, making travel more accessible and welcoming for Hibiscus Coast residents.

The expanded parking facility features three tailored options to meet diverse travel needs.

For short visits, the Transport Hub provides a P60 Short Stay car park on the ground floor, ideal for quick pick-ups or farewells.

This area also includes seating and coffee spots for a comfortable wait.

For extended gatherings, the P180 Short Stay option on the first floor allows more time to say a warm goodbye or greet returning family members inside the terminal.

For those embarking on a longer trip, Premium Parking is now available on levels 2 through 4 of the Transport Hub.

Designed for stays of five to seven days, this area offers the convenience of covered parking with a pre-booking option that can save travellers up to 35% on daily rates.

Take a look at the new experience in this video:

To celebrate the opening, Auckland Airport is offering an introductory rate of $79 for seven days for those booking online before 31 December 2024.

This promotion applies to travel dates up until 31 March 2025, encouraging locals to try the new parking facility.

Using cutting-edge licence plate recognition technology, the new hub allows for seamless entry and exit, with flexible payment options available both online and at pay stations.
