Geneva’s international airport, also known as “Genève Aéroport” or “aéroport de Genève-Cointrin“is very busy.
This means that travelers using their own vehicles always have the question of parking on their minds: where can they find an inexpensive, yet secure and convenient parking space?
That’s the question we answer in this article.
Types of long-term parking lots
Official Geneva Airport parking lots
There are four dedicated long-term parking facilities three of which are accessible from Switzerland (P1, P26, P51) and one from France (P20).
They are listed in descending order of price.
- Le parking lot P1 is the premium parking lot, as it’s the closest to the terminals.
Of course, it’s also the most expensive. - Parking lot P20 is the only one accessible from the Ain department, on the road next to Ferney-Voltaire customs, and its rates are similar to those of P1.
- The P26 parking lot is a little further away, in the extension of the station.
- Le parking lot P51 is a little further away, around 500 meters from the terminal, and charges the same rates as P26.
Visit private parking lots
Currently, six private parking companies, including Arena Park, are authorized by Geneva Airport.
These parking lots are slightly further from the boarding terminals than the official parking lots.
A shuttle service is available to take passengers from the parking lot to the airport. Arena Park offers this shuttle service free of charge.
There are other private parking lots, not accredited by Geneva Airport, which are often located a little further away.
