Lisbon Airport (LIS / Humberto Delgado) is one of the busiest in southern Europe and its official on-airport parking fills weeks ahead in July-August. P1 short-term costs €3/hour, P2 medium-term €15/day, and P5 long-term €8/day with 2-minute shuttle. External operators (ParkVia, Goodbye Car, Parq Airport) charge €4-7/day with shuttle. This guide covers every airport lot, the Park&Fly lot at Sete Rios, meet-and-greet valet options, how to reach the airport by metro (€1.90) if you skip airport parking, and how the new electric shuttles work since March 2026.
LIS has five on-airport parking tiers, each with its own logic and shuttle system. External operators offer cheaper alternatives with their own brand of trade-off.
| Option | Type | Cost | Walk / Shuttle |
|---|---|---|---|
| P1 | Terminal (kiss-and-fly) | €3/hr · €30/day | 1 min walk |
| P2 | Covered, medium | €15/day · €55/week | 3 min walk |
| P3 | Premium valet | €25/day | Door-to-door |
| P5 | Long-term outdoor | €8/day · €42/week | 2 min shuttle |
| External operators | Private off-airport | €4-7/day · €25-40/week | 5-10 min shuttle |
All on-airport parking is managed by ANA Aeroportos. Rates are the same every day of the year; no Sunday discount. Peak season (Easter, July-August, Christmas) shows 90%+ occupancy — book online 2-4 weeks ahead.
The five on-airport options plus top external operators. Book online to save 20-30% versus walk-up rates.
Outdoor lot connected to terminal by a free 2-minute shuttle. Best on-airport daily rate for trips over 24 hours. Book online to guarantee a space; walk-up often full in peak season.
Third-party lots 2-4 km from LIS with 5-10 min shuttles. Goodbye Car, ParkVia, Parq Airport and Mister Parking all compete. 30-50% cheaper than ANA official parking. Book online — walk-up rates are 30% higher.
Covered multi-storey a 3-min walk to the terminal. Best for 1-3 day trips or weather-sensitive cars. More expensive than P5 but saves time and protects from sun.
Valet service — drop off at terminal, staff drive the car away. Useful for very early or late flights and travellers with a lot of luggage or mobility issues.
Large surface park 15 min from LIS by metro (Red Line Sete Rios → Aeroporto, 3 stops, €1.90). Best option if you want the cheapest possible airport parking combined with a short metro ride.
P5 ANA 4.1★ · ParkVia LIS 4.6★ · P2 Covered 4.2★ · Goodbye Car 4.5★ · Sete Rios 4.3★. Based on 1,500+ reviews each (April 2026).
Cheapest: Sete Rios + metro (€21 + metro for the party). External operator (Goodbye Car): €25. P5 ANA: €42. P2 Covered: €55. P3 Valet: €110. Savings of €17-90 depending on choice.
Lisbon summer: 30-35°C. Rentals and dark cars benefit from P2 covered. For trips under 48 hours, P1/P2 covered justify the price. For 1+ week, external operators + outdoor is the sweet spot.

External operators (Goodbye Car, ParkVia, Parq Airport) from €4/day with 5-10 min shuttle. On-airport, P5 long-term at €8/day is cheapest. For under 3 days, metro from Sete Rios (€3/day + €1.90 metro) often beats both.
