Tel Aviv Airport Parking
Ben Gurion Airport offers a variety of parking options to suit both short-term and long-term needs, with updated policies and enhanced security measures in 2025.
Short-Term Parking
Short-term parking is located directly in front of Terminal 3, making it ideal for quick drop-offs, pick-ups, or short stays. The first hour costs NIS 22, with each additional 15 minutes costing NIS 6. The maximum daily rate is NIS 100, but during peak season (June 15 to October 31), the daily maximum rises to NIS 135.
If you’re planning to park for just a few hours, arrive early-significant congestion is expected, and the lot may close intermittently during busy periods.
Parking in front of the arrivals and departures halls is strictly for drop-offs and pick-ups only-no waiting is allowed.
Long-Term Parking
Long-term parking is mainly provided in Lot 15, which operates 24/7 and is connected to Terminal 3 by a free shuttle service that runs every 10–15 minutes. Rates are typically NIS 40–70 per day, depending on whether you choose covered or uncovered parking.
The main long-term parking area is divided into two complexes:
- Orchard Lot (east side)
- Vineyard Lot (west side)
Always check the signs at the parking lot entrance or call the control room (03-9752550) for up-to-date availability, as spaces can fill quickly, especially during holidays or peak travel times.
During peak season (June 15 to October 31), parking for more than 24 hours in these lots is prohibited. Vehicles left over 24 hours during this time will be towed, and owners will be responsible for towing fees and/or a penalty of NIS 135.
For extended trips during peak travel season, consider alternative transport to the airport or pre-arrange off-site parking.
Accessibility and Navigation
Clear directional signs are posted along airport roads to guide drivers to available parking. The shuttle connecting long-term parking and the terminals is accessible for travelers with reduced mobility and has space for luggage.
If you have mobility needs, inform airport staff or the shuttle driver for assistance with boarding and luggage.
Security and Safety
Following recent regional security incidents, parking areas-especially those near Terminal 3-are under heightened surveillance and may be subject to temporary closures or additional checks.
Allow extra time for parking and transfers to the terminal, particularly during heightened security alerts.
