Why choose our parking over an official GVA parking?

Geneva Airport offers several official parkings (P1, P12, P26, P31, P34, P49) directly managed by Genève Aéroport. While these solutions are convenient, they have two major limitations for long-term travellers: very high rates beyond 3 days, and limited availability during school holidays, long weekends and bank holidays.

This is precisely why we offer a comprehensive and affordable alternative:

How does our parking service at Geneva Airport work?

Our goal: to save you time and avoid any unpleasant surprises. The process is intentionally simple and consists of 5 clear steps, from booking day to your return from your trip.

Step 1 — Book your space online

Visit our website, indicate your departure and return dates, as well as your vehicle information (make, model, plate). Choose your package, pay online via secure payment (credit card, TWINT, etc.) and immediately receive a confirmation email containing the exact parking address, the emergency phone number and all useful instructions.

Step 2 — On departure day: drop off your vehicle

Arrive at the parking at the time indicated in your confirmation. Our team welcomes you, checks your booking, hands you a ticket and guides you to a parking space. Allow about 10 minutes between your arrival at the parking and your drop-off at Terminal 1.

Step 3 — Immediate boarding in the free shuttle

Our air-conditioned shuttle is waiting at the exit. The journey takes only a few minutes, and you are dropped off directly at the kiss-and-fly drop-off zone of Terminal 1 at Geneva Airport.

Step 4 — On return: meet the shuttle

Once you have collected your luggage, contact us at the number on your confirmation: we immediately send the shuttle to your pickup point at the Terminal 1 arrivals exit. No long wait, even late at night or early in the morning.

Step 5 — Collect your vehicle and hit the road

Back at the parking, present your ticket, get into your car and drive away. No additional charges to pay on site if your parking duration matches your booking.

Terminal 1 (T1): the main terminal

Geneva Airport has a single main terminal, Terminal 1 (T1), which handles almost all commercial departures and arrivals. This terminal is divided into two sectors:

• Swiss sector: for the majority of flights, accessible from Geneva and Switzerland.
• French sector: used by certain airlines, accessible directly from neighbouring France without going through Swiss customs.

Our free shuttle drops you off directly at the entrance of Terminal 1, in the kiss-and-fly drop-off zone for departures. On return, we pick you up at the same location, at the arrivals exit.

How to get to Geneva Airport by car

The airport is easily accessible via the A1 motorway (Aéroport / Grand-Saconnex exit). From Geneva city centre, allow about 10 to 15 minutes outside rush hours. From neighbouring France (Annemasse, Annecy, Lyon), direct access via the A40 then A1.

Tips to prepare for your departure

• Arrive at the airport 2 hours before a Schengen flight, 3 hours before a long-haul flight.
• Anticipate increased security checks during school holidays and periods of international tension.
• Check the validity of your identity documents (passport, ID card, ESTA, visa) at least 15 days before departure.
• Think about your travel insurance and any required vaccinations based on your destination.
• Download your boarding pass in advance via your airline's app.

Your vehicle's safety, our top priority

Entrusting your car for several days, or even several weeks, requires complete trust. Our parking has been designed from the start to provide a high level of security, equivalent to or better than that of the official Geneva Airport parkings.

• Fully fenced site with access controlled by automatic barrier.
• 24/7 video surveillance across all parking areas.
• Continuous lighting of all spaces at night to deter intrusions.
• On-site staff during drop-off and pickup hours.
• Vehicle inspection on arrival and departure (general condition, mileage, fuel level if valet option chosen).
• Parking insurance covering any damage that may occur on site (subject to terms and conditions).

Your keys remain in safe custody in our offices throughout your trip and are only returned upon your return, on presentation of your booking proof and ID.

Additional services available

To make your journey even more comfortable, we offer several optional additional services, to be selected directly when booking:

🔌 EV and hybrid charging

Electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles are welcome. On request, we can plug your vehicle into a charging station during its stay, so you can return to the road with a full battery. Ideal for long return trips to France, Italy or elsewhere in Switzerland.
