If you’re driving to work, there are plenty of staff parking options at London Stansted Airport. You’ll find designated staff parking bays at Enterprise House – the airport’s main office building – and in four of the airport’s main car parks: Coopers End, Cargo, and Long Stay. So you have easy access to the terminal building, wherever you’re working.
Enterprise House is the nearest staff parking area with reserved bays, disabled bays, and liftsharing bays available. Parking spaces at Enterprise House are limited, so you'll usually be allocated a space in the Coopers End car park, and added to the waiting list for Enterprise House - you'll be transferred when a space becomes available.
If you need a disabled bay permit, please contact: staff_parking@stanstedairport.com. You'll need to provide supporting documentation, such as an Occupational Health Report or Risk Assessment. (Please note: Due to data protection, copies of such documents will not be retained on file.)
We do reserve some parking parking spaces at Enterprise House for occasional visitors and exceptional circumstances. If you need to apply for a reserved parking space at Enterprise House, please contact: staff_parking@stanstedairport.com. Billing is charged to the employer, so if you're an employee you'll need to get Line Manager approval before you apply.
Coopers End car park is one of our largest staff parking areas - new staff will usually be allocated a parking space here. A shuttle bus operates from Coopers End to Enterprise House, running every 15 minutes, 24/7.
If you need a disabled bay permit, please contact: staff_parking@stanstedairport.com. You'll need to provide supporting documentation, such as an Occupational Health Report or Risk Assessment. (Please note: due to data protection, copies of such documents will not be retained on file.)
Cargo car park gives access to VP1. It's approximately a 10-minute walk from Cargo car park via Enterprise House to VP2.
Priority is given to Swissport and other ground handlers for this car park.
Please note: Transfer requests for Cargo car park are permanent, and your car will not be transferred to any other airport car park thereafter.
Long Stay car park is primarily used by MAG employees for holiday parking. However, it's also used as an overflow during busy periods, or when all other staff car parks are at capacity - so it's possible you'll be assigned a parking space here as a new member of staff, and added to the waiting list for Enterprise House. You'll be transferred when a space becomes available.
A shuttle bus operates from the Long Stay car park to Enterprise House, running every 15 minutes, 24/7.
If you're visiting Enterprise House, even as a London Stansted Airport employee, you'll need to request visitor parking at Enterprise House.
