Zagreb Airport offers over 1,500 parking spaces located directly in front of the main terminal building, ensuring a short and easy walk to the check-in counters. The main open-air car park is divided into different zones (P1, P2, and P3) to cater to both short-term and long-term parking needs, alongside a convenient "Kiss & Fly" zone for quick drop-offs.
For a guaranteed spot and potentially better rates, especially during peak travel seasons, consider booking your parking in advance through the official airport website or a partner service.
Parking Overview
Kiss & Fly Zone (Departures)
For quick drop-offs, the Kiss & Fly lane is located on the departures level (upper floor). This zone is perfect for dropping off passengers and their luggage right at the terminal entrance. The first 10 minutes are free of charge, which is ample time for a quick goodbye. Stays longer than 10 minutes incur higher fees to discourage long-term waiting.
Short-Term Parking (P1, P2)
The main car park in front of the terminal is ideal for short-term stays, whether you're picking up passengers or seeing them off. The first 10 minutes are free for entering and exiting. Parking areas P1 and P2 are closest to the terminal and are priced for shorter durations.
Short-Term Pricing (P1/P2):
Best for: Picking up arriving passengers, short meetings, or if you need more than 10 minutes to see someone off.
Long-Term Parking (P3)
If you're planning a vacation or an extended business trip, the P3 parking area is the most economical choice for multi-day stays. While still within easy walking distance of the terminal, it offers a more affordable daily rate for long-term parking.
Long-Term Pricing (P3):
💰 Long-Stay Calculation
One week (7 days) of parking in P3 costs a flat rate of €50 total.
Compare this to two standard taxi rides: 2 trips × €35 = €70.
For trips lasting 4 days or more, parking your own car is often the cheaper option!
Payment and Access
The parking facility is fully automated. You'll receive a ticket upon entry at the barrier, which you must keep with you. Before returning to your car, you must pay for your parking at one of the automated payment machines located within the terminal or in the car park itself. The machines accept cash (Euros) and credit/debit cards.
How to Pay:
- Take your ticket from the entry barrier.
- Before leaving, insert the ticket into a payment machine.
- Pay the displayed amount using cash (€) or a credit/debit card.
- The machine will validate your ticket.
- Use the validated ticket to open the exit barrier upon driving out.
Lost your ticket? If you lose your ticket, you will be charged a penalty fee in addition to the calculated parking duration. Be sure to keep your ticket in a safe place.
Security Features
The official airport car park is an open-air facility that is well-lit and equipped with CCTV surveillance. While security measures are in place, you should always take basic precautions like locking your vehicle and not leaving any valuables visible inside.
Alternative Transport
If you prefer not to drive and park, Zagreb Airport is well-served by other transport options. The airport shuttle bus is a cost-effective and reliable way to reach the city's main bus terminal. Official taxis and ride-sharing services are available 24/7 for direct, door-to-door service. For ultimate flexibility, you can also book a rental car from one of the many agencies located in the arrivals hall.
