Parking Airport Gibraltar GIB / Short Term Lot Zone B near the Terminal

Gibraltar International Airport is located right on the border between Spain and Gibraltar and is best reached on foot whether you live in Gibraltar or on Spanish territory. The best option for all passengers living on the Spanish side is to leave the car in a car park in the neighboring Spanish town of La Linea de la Concepcion and take a walk to Gibraltar. Travelers staying on the Gibraltar side should walk or drive to the airport terminal via the runway and be picked up at the end of the trip. Driving your own vehicle to Gibraltar Airport is not worthwhile because there are no long-term parking spaces near the terminal and parking is only possible for a maximum stay of 3 hours. There are only 2 short-term parking spaces in front of the airport terminal building. These are Parking Zone A and Parking Zone B. In this article we would like to tell you about the Zone B car park and the options available to passengers there.
