As Perth Airport's most economical official parking option, the Short Term Saver caters to travellers planning shorter trips without the high costs typically associated with short-term parking. It also allows for 10 minutes of free parking for drop-offs or pick-ups.
Conveniently situated within the T3/T4 parking lots, it's just a 4-6 minute walk to the check-in desks, offering the security of 24/7 CCTV surveillance and staff. Plus, travellers benefit from complimentary cancellations up to 2 hours before arrival.
Like the other official Perth Airport car parks, the Short Term Saver at Perth Airport can be booked online up to 12 months in advance and 2 hours before arrival at the car park. The credit cards accepted for online bookings are Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Diner Club cards.
If booking online doesn’t suit you, you can also drive up to the car park on the day of your flight, although you will incur drive-up rates.
Should you need to cancel or modify your booking, you can do so through the online portal on the official Perth Airport website, under the ‘Manage my Booking’ tab. Cancellations or modifications can be made up until 2 hours before your booking starts. Amendments related to the duration or person(s) within your booking will likely incur additional costs, so be wary of this.
If you arrive late to your booking, you can still enter the car park and utilise your booking. However, you will not be compensated for the time that you did not use your booking. Similarly, if you exit the car park later than your stated return time, you will incur additional fees. If your booking has already started, you will not be able to extend your stay, and will instead be required to make another booking or incur the drive-up charges applicable for that time.
If you are looking for the cheapest on-site car park at Perth Airport, the Short Term Saver offers the best rates. For 0 - 10 minutes, you can park for free, which is a great option if you are only looking to pick up or drop off friends or family. After that, rates increase to $19.00 for 1 - 1.5 hours, $49.00 for 8 - 24 hours, $181.00 for 3 - 4 days, $320.00 for 1 week (7 - 8 days), and $532.40 for 2 weeks (14 - 15 days).
While the Saver is the cheapest on-site option, it is not the cheapest overall Perth Airport parking, as Bay Airport Parking and The Car Port & Spa still offer the cheapest rates charging $56.75 - $59.00 for 3 days of parking, and $94.18 - $96.00 for a week.

To enter the car park with a reservation, approach the designated entrance.
