Geneva Airport Parking (GVA) – Long-Term with Free Shuttle
Are you flying out from Geneva International Airport (GVA), also known as Cointrin, and looking for a reliable, affordable and stress-free parking solution? Ainpark offers a long-term parking service at Geneva Airport designed for both frequent travellers and occasional holidaymakers.
Whether you are travelling for a short city break, several weeks of holidays, or a long business trip, our secure parking and free shuttle service to Terminal 1 guarantee a stress-free departure and return.
Why choose our parking over an official GVA parking?
Geneva Airport offers several official parkings directly managed by Genève Aéroport. While convenient, they have two major limitations for long-term travellers: very high rates beyond 3 days, and limited availability during school holidays and long weekends.
💰 Save up to 60%
Our long-term packages are designed for trips ranging from 3 days to several weeks. The longer your trip, the greater your savings compared to the official airport parking.
🚌 Free 24/7 shuttle
No extra charges, no long waits: our shuttle runs continuously to Terminal 1 of Geneva Airport, day and night, weekends and bank holidays included.
🔒 Secure parking
Fully fenced site, 24/7 video surveillance, night lighting, automatic barrier access control. Your vehicle is protected throughout your trip.
📱 Booking in 2 minutes
Simple online booking platform, secure payment, instant email confirmation with all practical instructions.
🕐 Available 24/7
Early morning flights, late returns, overnight layovers: we operate continuously, including Sundays and bank holidays.
✈️ Flight tracking
We monitor your real flight schedule to adjust our service in case of delays or early arrivals, at no extra cost.
How does our parking service at Geneva Airport work?
Our goal: to save you time and avoid any unpleasant surprises. The process consists of 5 clear steps, from booking day to your return from your trip.
Step 1 — Book your space online
Visit our website, indicate your departure and return dates, as well as your vehicle information (make, model, plate). Choose your package, pay online via secure payment (credit card, TWINT, etc.) and immediately receive a confirmation email containing the exact parking address, the emergency phone number and all useful instructions.
Step 2 — On departure day: drop off your vehicle
Arrive at the parking at the time indicated in your confirmation. Our team welcomes you, checks your booking, hands you a ticket and guides you to a parking space. Allow about 10 minutes between your arrival at the parking and your drop-off at Terminal 1.
Step 3 — Immediate boarding in the free shuttle
Our air-conditioned shuttle is waiting at the exit. The journey takes only a few minutes, and you are dropped off directly at the kiss-and-fly drop-off zone of Terminal 1.
Step 4 — On return: meet the shuttle
Once you have collected your luggage, contact us at the number on your confirmation: we immediately send the shuttle to your pickup point at the Terminal 1 arrivals exit. No long wait, even late at night or early in the morning.
Step 5 — Collect your vehicle and hit the road
Back at the parking, present your ticket, get into your car and drive away. No additional charges to pay on site if your parking duration matches your booking.
