    • Hi Lindsay,

      It appears that there are 2 different types of car parking options available at the airport.

      There is non-secure parking up to 3 days that is free (split between 4 hour parking and 3 day parking zones). It does appear to be first come first serve, but if yesterday is anything to go by, there is ample parking spots available.

      If you require secure parking or anything over 3 days, it is $5 a day, or $25 for 7 days.

      The airport is pretty far away from everything and has CCTV everywhere, so if you are only gone for a few days, the free parking would likely suffice.

      Thanks
      Michael
