Car parking FAQs

You can amend your booking online or by contacting us up to 72 hours before your parking starts.

If your plans have changed by less than 6 hours, for example, a slight change to your flight time, you don't need to do anything. You can arrive up to 6 hours earlier or leave up to 6 hours later without any extra charge.

Please note that if you've added Security FastTrack, Passport Control FastTrack, or a lounge to your booking, the original times still apply to those.

To amend your booking, visit the website you booked through and follow the instructions:

If your original rate is no longer available, the new rate will apply. Some promotional bookings can't be amended or cancelled; this will be made clear at the time of booking.

Plans changed? If you booked directly with Manchester Airport, you can cancel free of charge up to 72 hours before your arrival.

With Cancellation Protection, you can cancel up to 1 hour before arrival. Cancellations within that final hour are non-refundable.
