If you wish to use the car park for less than 24 hours, please drive into the car park, take a ticket and pay at one of our pay-on-foot machines. If you are picking up please park in a designated pick up space. Parking is free for the first 30 minutes, with roll-up prices applying thereafter.

Yes, you must pay to pick up a passenger at Heathrow Terminal 2, as waiting or picking up on the terminal forecourts (the "drop-off" zone) is strictly prohibited. As of 2026, the standard procedure for a high-fidelity pickup is to use the Short Stay Car Park, where prices start at approximately £8.00 for the first 29 minutes and increase to £12.50 for up to 45 minutes. Alternatively, if you wish to avoid the parking fee, you can use the Long Stay Car Park, which offers up to 2 hours of free parking; however, your passenger must take a free shuttle bus from the terminal to the car park to meet you. If you attempt to stop at the curb outside the terminal to "quickly" pick someone up, you will be caught by high-resolution cameras and issued a "Parking Charge Notice" (PCN) of £80. For the most seamless experience, it is recommended to have your passenger text you once they have cleared customs and collected their bags before you enter the Short Stay garage to minimize your parking costs.
