What is the cheapest North Terminal deal we offer?

Our cheapest Gatwick North Terminal deal is AVPS Park & Ride at £68.63 for 8 days (£8.58/day), which you can book with us. It is an off-airport fenced compound about 2 miles out with a 10-15 minute shuttle. The official Long Stay is £79.20.

Off-airport Park & Ride undercuts the official on-airport rates at the North Terminal. Gatwick Short Stay turn-up reaches £70 for 24 hours, so an 8-day turn-up runs far above £68.63 pre-booked with us. As the UK's second-busiest airport, Gatwick uses pricing algorithms that raise rates as spaces fill, so book weeks ahead for the lowest rate, with free cancellation up to 72 hours before arrival.

Where is the North Terminal at Gatwick?

The North Terminal has its own approach roads, Short Stay car parks and Long Stay compound, reached from the M23 Junction 9 following the colour-coded North Terminal signs to postcode RH6 0PJ. Airline allocations are permanent but worth checking, so confirm your e-ticket says North Terminal before booking parking with us.

Which official car parks serve the North Terminal?

The North Terminal has Short Stay (Car Parks 5 and 6, 3-4 min walk), Long Stay (shuttle, about 1.5 miles) and Valet. Short Stay is closest with keys retained; Long Stay is the best on-airport value. Mid Stay is South Terminal only.

Short Stay uses Car Parks 5 and 6, multi-storey structures next to the terminal with a 3-4 minute covered walk and height limits around 1.8-2.0 metres. Long Stay is on the perimeter about 1.5 miles out with a free 10-12 minute shuttle, the value choice for 1-2 week holidays, open-air with keys retained. Valet takes your keys at the terminal for the ultimate convenience. Note that Mid Stay is exclusive to the South Terminal. Book any official North Terminal product with us and apply BCP30.

Which off-airport North Terminal deals do we offer?

We have off-airport North Terminal deals including AVPS, Cophall, APH and Purple Parking, all Park Mark secure with shuttles serving both terminals. Our AVPS deal is cheapest at £68.63 for 8 days, with a 10-15 minute transfer.

AVPS runs a fully fenced compound about 2 miles out with a reliable 10-15 minute shuttle and continuous CCTV. Cophall is a family-run Park Mark operator with competitive long-trip rates. APH sits off the M23 at Copthorne, 5 miles out, with award-winning service and 10-12 minute transfers. Purple Parking runs a large secure compound about 3.5 miles out. All serve the North Terminal and are bookable with us with BCP30 applied.

How do North Terminal Meet & Greet and Valet work?

You hand your keys to staff at the North Terminal forecourt and walk straight to check-in. Official Valet (£108) parks your car in a secure on-site compound; off-airport Meet & Greet like LG (£71.78) collects at the forecourt and parks off-site. Both are drop-and-go.

For the fastest start, the official Valet takes your keys at the North Terminal reception zone and stores the car in a secure on-site compound, with some packages adding a car wash or EV charging. Off-airport Meet & Greet operators such as LG, AMAG and I Love Meet and Greet collect at the forecourt and park off-site at lower prices, eliminating the shuttle, ideal for families with heavy luggage. Book any with us, with BCP30 applied.

Which North Terminal car parks let you keep your keys?

You keep your keys at Gatwick North Terminal in the official Short Stay (Car Parks 5 and 6) and Long Stay. You hand keys over for the official Valet and off-airport Meet & Greet services. Some off-airport Park & Ride compounds also hold keys to move cars.

The official self-park options at the North Terminal, Short Stay and Long Stay, are keep-keys, suiting drivers who prefer no one else handles their vehicle. The Valet and off-airport Meet & Greet services take the keys to park for you. Some off-airport Park & Ride operators retain keys to manage space, so check each listing's keep-keys status in the table. Every option is bookable with us, with Gatwick using ANPR throughout.

How much is the drop-off charge at the North Terminal?

Gatwick charges about £10 for up to 10 minutes on the North Terminal forecourt, then £1 per minute to a 30-minute, £30 maximum, paid online via Gatwick Postpay by midnight the next day. To drop off free, use the Long Stay car park's 2-hour free window and the shuttle.

The North Terminal forecourt uses ANPR cameras with no barriers, so you must pay the £10 online via Gatwick Postpay or AutoPay afterwards, missing the deadline risks a PCN. The free alternative is the Long Stay car park, which gives 2 hours of free drop-off before charges apply, with the shuttle to the terminal. For pick-ups, wait legally in Short Stay Car Park 6, Level 4, rather than the forecourt.

How do I get from the North Terminal to the South Terminal?

Gatwick's free automated monorail links the North and South Terminals in 2-3 minutes, running 24 hours a day. This means South Terminal parking and the South Terminal rail station are easily reachable from a North Terminal flight, and vice versa.

The two Gatwick terminals sit about 1.2 kilometres apart, joined by a free inter-terminal monorail that runs around the clock with a 2-3 minute journey. This matters for parking because many off-airport compounds and the Gatwick Express rail station serve the South Terminal, yet remain convenient for North Terminal passengers via the monorail. Always allow time for the transfer, then book your North Terminal space with us with BCP30 applied.

Does the North Terminal have a connected hotel?

Yes. The Sofitel London Gatwick links directly to the North Terminal via an internal covered walkway, ideal for early flights. The Premier Inn North Terminal sits opposite the Short Stay car parks. Our packages pair these with secure parking in one booking.

The Sofitel London Gatwick connects straight into the North Terminal by an internal covered walkway, the most convenient pre-flight stay for North Terminal departures.
