Closest Parking Options Near Terminal 3

Much like Terminals 1 & 2, the closest parking option to Terminal 3 at Melbourne Airport is the Premium Self-Park, on Level 1 of the Terminal 1,2,3 car park. It is a 3-minute walk to T3 and offers undercover parking in a multi-level facility. While convenient, it comes at a premium price of $672 per week. 

A more affordable alternative, that is still close, is parking on any other level of the Terminal 1,2,3 car park, within an 8-minute walk of T3. Travellers typically park here for the 15 minutes of free parking, but it is a reasonable option for weekend getaways of 3 days. After that, it gets quite expensive, at $432 for 1 week of parking. 

The security features at these car parks include 24/7 CCTV, entry and exit barriers, well-lit areas, and emergency buttons for security.

While these car parks are within walking distance, car parks with shuttle services may provide greater convenience by dropping you directly outside Terminal 3 and providing luggage assistance.

💡TIP: If you're travelling from terminal 3 between January and March 2025, please allow an extra 30 to 45 minutes for parking due to construction delays in the Terminal 123 forecourt.

Expect higher traffic and more crowded car parks during this period. Consider factoring in this additional time or exploring alternative parking options to ensure a smoother experience.

 

Valet Services at T3

The valet service at T3 is at the Premium Valet car park, located on level 2 of the Terminal 1,2, & 3 Car Park. Parking here means you will be within a 1 - 2 minute walk of the T3 check-in desks, which is pretty convenient.

The downside of this parking option is that parking costs around $672 for 1 week, and your vehicle is subject to covered or uncovered parking, depending on availability. However, your vehicle will remain on airport grounds, no matter what. 

 

Most Affordable Parking Options Near Terminal 3

Private Parking Options

The cheapest car park servicing Terminal 3 at Melbourne Airport is Air Travel Parking, offering uncovered parking for just $80 per week. Despite its affordability, it provides the same security features as official airport car parks, but in a smaller, well-monitored facility for extra attention to each vehicle. While it's slightly farther from T3 - requiring a 13-minute shuttle ride - transfers are on-demand, ensuring a shuttle is ready once you arrive or return.

For covered parking, Melrose Airport Parking offers indoor spaces for $138 per week and is just a 7-minute shuttle ride from T3. Open daily from 4 a.m. – 2 a.m., Melrose operates on-demand shuttles for seamless transfers.

Another budget-friendly option is Jetaway Airport Parking, just 7 minutes from T3, with weekly rates of $104.

As locally owned Australian businesses, these providers focus on fair pricing and personalized service, ensuring secure, convenient, and affordable parking. All locations are monitored 24/7 with CCTV, on-site patrols, and lockable perimeter fencing for peace of mind.

 

Official Airport Parking Options

The Value Car Park is the airport's official budget parking option. It is approximately a 5 - 8-minute shuttle ride from Terminal 3, with rates at $112 for 1 week of parking, which is pretty affordable. 

While affordable, it only provides scheduled shuttle services operating every 15 minutes. Passengers have reported encountering queues, and the bus is often full. However, if you're willing to wait, the lower rates make it a worthwhile option.
