Parking in Brussels Airport

Parking at Brussels Airport requires more planning than you might expect. Travelling without preparation can lead to long queues or overpriced options.

You can easily compare all available parking options at Brussels Airport. Whether you’re looking for a quick drop-off, long-term parking during your trip, or a charging station for your electric vehicle, you’ll find a clear overview of the zones, rates, and smart parking alternatives.

Free parking at Brussels Airport

Free parking at Brussels Airport is possible, but options are limited and require a bit of planning. If you're dropping off or picking up friends or family, you can use the drop-off zone near the terminal. These offer a short period of free parking – ideal for quick stops without extended waiting.

Want to park a little longer without paying? In residential areas just outside the official airport zones, within the municipality of Zaventem, there are occasionally free spaces available. However, always check local parking regulations, as many streets have restrictions or are residents-only zones. This helps avoid fines.

Another option is remote parking: some areas a few kilometres from the airport allow free parking, though this requires extra time – often with a shuttle service to the terminal.

For guaranteed peace of mind, a paid reservation remains the most reliable option. You’ll know exactly where your car is and avoid any last-minute hassle on your return.

Paid parking: zones and rates

Brussels Airport offers various parking zones tailored to different needs and budgets. Whether you’re after a quick stop or long-stay parking, there’s always a suitable spot. Some car parks are accessible 24/7, so you can park at any time, day or night.

  • P2 Economy: Also close to the terminal, with covered spaces and EV charging available.
  • P3 Holiday: Within walking distance of the terminal – perfect for longer trips. Covered parking with flexible cancellation options. Covered parking is a major benefit here, especially in bad weather.

Budget-friendly options:

Other car parks and garages in Zaventem

In addition to the official airport car parks, there are several private options in Zaventem and surrounding areas. These alternatives, like “Zaventem Parking” or “Parking Zaventem Airport”, are typically located a few kilometres from Brussels Airport and offer competitive pricing – a smart option for low-cost parking.

Think of private providers offering shuttle services or valet parking. Shuttle parking is a popular solution where you drive to the parking location and are then taken to the airport via a free shuttle bus. Valet parking is perfect for those wanting to hand over their car to a staff member, who then parks it securely for you.

This allows you to leave your car with peace of mind and begin your journey stress-free. Friendly drivers make the transfer between car park and terminal smooth and efficient. Quick Parking Zaventem is one such provider, offering fast and reliable service for those in a hurry.

Some providers also offer added services such as EV charging, car washes or indoor parking. Star Parking is one known provider offering quiet, affordable, and convenient options – a great choice for those seeking more comfort or looking to avoid traffic near the terminal. Driving to the airport is simple: just choose the alternative that suits you best.
