Your plane tickets are booked. Bags are packed but oh… what about your Adelaide Airport Parking?
With over 8 million passengers every year, Adelaide Airport is the 5th busiest airport in Australia.
Adelaide Airport, like other major airports in the world, is constantly busy. Always people going to and fro. 24/7. It never stops.
Think about all the transportation needed just to get to the airport.
The options for transport to the airport are typically one of the 4
Having a friend drop you off (if you’re lucky)
Public transport (hassle)
Taxi (expensive)
Airport parking
If you’re not lucky enough to have someone that will drop you off at the airport, you really have 3 options.
If you don’t want the hassle of public transport, or the expense of a taxi… Then airport parking is your best bet.
Adelaide Airport Parking can be a little confusing. So for your benefit…
Here’s our guide to Adelaide Airport Parking.
On-site vs. Off-site Adelaide Airport Parking
What is the difference between on-site and off-site parking?
The answer is quite literal.
On-site parking is… On-site. On the premises. At the location which you are parking for.
Off-site parking clearly then is to park somewhere else, usually nearby.
Specifically in airport terminology, on-site parking is on the grounds of the airport. Off-site is generally very closeby in private lots/garages.
What Is Best For You? (On-site or Off-site)
Whether on-site or off-site is best for you, depends on your needs/wants.
These needs/wants include:
Budget – How much money do you have to spend on airport parking?
Proximity – How close do you want to be to the terminals?
Preference – Do you want a luxury service? (Valet for example)
International/Domestic – Which terminal will you be using?
There are definitely other factors, but answering these 4 should give you the right airport parking for your needs. Whether that’s on-site or off-site.
Off-site Airport Parking (Domestic + International)
Official airport parking is not the only choice out there. If you’re willing to do some research, great deals are out there.
The main difference from on-site parking, is the proximity to the airport. Being “off-site”, it’s not on the actual premise of the airport.
The main benefit of using an off-site airport parking provider, is cost/value.
On-site parking is seen as “official airport parking”. Due to its unmatched closeness to the terminals, they have guaranteed business/customers.
Off-site has to be competitive with the service they provide, to get business/customers. They must provide the best prices possible.
Here are the best Adelaide Airport off-site parking options.

Adelaide Airport Parking Conclusion
Adelaide Airport parking is not as complex as other major cities like Sydney or Brisbane. Adelaide only has 1 terminal, for both International and Domestic travel.
This makes parking issues easier.
Whether you choose on-site or off-site parking, is going to depend on what you want and can afford.
If you want to be as close to the terminal as possible, use on-site parking. Specifically the Terminal Car Park. If it’s out of your budget, then use the Long Term Car Park.
Or if you don’t mind a little more leg work for a better deal, check out off-site parking. Andrews Airport Parking and Airport Security Parking are both great value services.
Happy Parking From The Parking Deals Australia Team!
