About Official Short Stay and Premium Short Stay
Short Stay and Premium Short Stay are Leeds Bradford Airport's closest self-park car parks. Short Stay is a few minutes' walk from the terminal. Premium Short Stay sits next to the terminal, with extra-wide bays and free Fast Track through security.
Short Stay is the airport's standard car park close to the terminal. You park yourself, keep your keys and walk in. It suits short trips, business travel and late returns.
Premium Short Stay is the airport's top self-park product. The airport describes it as next to the terminal, with extra-wide bays and free Fast Track, and calls it ideal for business trips. Resellers put the walk at about one minute and say the Fast Track covers two passengers.
Both car parks use number plate recognition at the barriers. Over a week, both cost more than Long Stay or Mid Stay, so they earn their price on a trip of a day or two.

When Short Stay makes sense
The short walk earns its price.
Early flights, late returns.
The least walking of the self-park options.
For a week or more, compare Official Long Stay and Official Mid Stay, which cost less.
The hill at Leeds Bradford
The airport sits on a hillside at Yeadon, and the walks between the car parks and the terminal are not flat. With heavy cases, young children or limited mobility, the gradient matters as much as the distance. Blue Badge areas are available in every car park, per the airport.
