At Parclick, we do have a sense of adventure and enjoy taking a risk, but when it comes down to unnecessarily spending money, or gambling with the fate of cars, we certainly don’t take any chances.

So, if you need to park at the Nice-Côte d’Azur Airport, reserving your space is the best option because you can even choose the car park which is best adapted to your needs.

Plus, arriving directly at the airport isn’t always the best idea, because if you’re looking for a valet service, you often need to book 24 hours before, and if you’re on the hunt for low cost, then they’re on the outskirts and almost impossible to find if you arrive directly at the airport. So, by improvising, you’re probably going to miss out on good offers!

Here is a bit more information on the different options that we offer you to park in Nice Airport. We think you’ll find something to your taste.

Option 1: Official car parks at Nice Airport

If you find yourself preferring things which are more classic, you can reserve a parking space at an official car park at Terminals 1 and 2. It basically means covered, secure parking spaces in the immediate surroundings of the terminal. The benefits do depend on each car park, as some focus on 100% reliable security or on having direct access to the terminal. But you’re in luck as this airport does have a free minibus which runs every 5-10 minutes between the two terminals and the airport’s official car parks, via the Lindbergh bus station.

Option 2: Valet parking

If every minute counts, then a valet service is the fastest alternative, and oozes luxury. Not sure how it works? Well, all you have to do is arrive directly at the terminal, you hand over your vehicle to a professional driver who will take it to a secure car park near the airport. So you don’t lose anytime whatsoever, just hand over the keys and go into the terminal building. Couldn’t be easier, right?

But you don’t like the idea of trusting your car with a complete stranger? Or you think they’re going to go through your things?; Well, relax, they’re professionals and everything is very well organised.&

Option 3: Low-cost car parks

Finally, there’s the low-cost alternative, usually a good distance away from the airport, but they’re the ones which offer the cheapest prices, and then once you’ve parked, a shuttle (free) will take you to the terminal of your choice.

But are you the type of person who likes to park right next to the terminal and tell yourself that taking a shuttle is a waste of time? Well, remember that these low-cost car parks are often easy to find and taking a shuttle will be much cheaper. Besides, the shuttle usually brings you to the airport in a matter of minutes.

Where to park in Terminal 2 Nice?

For Terminal 2, the recommended car parks are the official parkings G2, P5, P6. Be aware that the P9 parking is only available by reservation. You must also use the drop-off points in front of each terminal if you are dropping off a relative.

Where to park for free at Nice airport?

To park for free near Nice airport, there is only one solution. You have to go to Saint-Laurent, a town near Nice. You will find several free car parks there. Once parked, you will have to walk for about 20 minutes to get to the airport terminal, which is not ideal, especially when carrying luggage.
