Everything you need to know about the Long Stay car park at Gatwick North Terminal — pricing, the free shuttle, security and the cheapest way to book.
Long Stay North is the official on-airport economy option for North Terminal departures — the right pick for any trip of three days or more, and often competitive with off-airport from two days when pre-booked.
It's Park Mark accredited, fully fenced and CCTV-covered, with a free shuttle bus to the North Terminal running every 10–15 minutes, 24 hours a day.
If Long Stay North isn't the right fit, here's the rest of the North Terminal parking lineup.
The default for trips of 3+ days. Free shuttle every 10–15 minutes, 24/7. Best official value when booked ahead.
Walking distance to the terminal — cheap for a few hours, expensive past 24 hours. Use for pickups and very short trips only.
Closest self-park to the terminal building, often a short covered walk. No shuttle needed — a middle ground between Long Stay and Valet.
Drop the car at the terminal forecourt, a chauffeur takes it to a secure compound. Fastest in and out — at the highest price.
Private operators with secure compounds and shuttle buses to the terminal. Often the cheapest option overall — pick a Park Mark accredited provider.
Off-airport equivalent of valet: hand over the keys at the terminal, the operator parks for you. Convenient — vet the operator carefully.
Long Stay North is roughly 3–4 minutes by shuttle to the North Terminal. Buses run every 10–15 minutes around the clock.
Official Long Stay shuttles run every 10–15 minutes and take around 5–10 minutes to the terminal. Off-airport shuttles vary by operator — most quote 10–15 minutes door-to-terminal.
