Short-Term Car Park

T1 sits directly beside the on-site Short-Term Car Park at Alghero-Fertilia, so you’re walking, not bussing.

This is the airport’s on-airport option for quick stops, right next to the single passenger terminal T1. You park at ground level, outside, and walk to the check-in area in roughly 2–4 minutes depending on your row. It’s signed as the Short-Term Car Park as you enter the airport access road, so you won’t miss the turn at the main terminal roundabout.

Pricing is by the day, so this works best for same-day pickups, drop-offs, or stays of 1–2 days. Because the rate structure is daily rather than hourly, leaving the car here a full week starts to add up compared with longer-stay options near Alghero town or along the SP44. If you’re flying out of T1 on early Ryanair or charter departures, this lot keeps the total “car door to security” time under about 10–12 minutes if you’re packed light.

The Short-Term Car Park sits inside the airport perimeter, behind the main entrance barrier and in front of the terminal frontage. That means you avoid shuttles, taxi queues, or long walks from off-site fields across the SP44. It’s open 24/7 in practice whenever the airport operates, and lighting covers the main drive lanes and pedestrian paths to T1’s front doors.

There are no official status perks or reserved airline bays here, so a basic compact rental or your own car gets the same spaces as a business traveler parking before a 7:00 flight. Payment machines sit close to the terminal entrance, so keep your ticket in your wallet, not the glovebox. Final tip: on busy summer Saturdays, aim to arrive 20–30 minutes earlier than planned so you can loop once for a better spot near the T1 crosswalks.
