Aena Parking

€94 for 8 days buys you staying under ALC’s control

Aena Parking at Alicante–Elche Miguel Hernández (NAT terminal) is the on-airport, Aena-managed option, priced around €94 for 8 days in General P1 while private shuttle lots sit closer to €14–18 for the same period. You park in Aena’s own multi-storey or long-stay, behind barriers and CCTV, and walk straight into the terminal instead of waiting on a minibus in the industrial estates outside the airport.

For quick runs, flyers quote paying under €2 for short pickups in the official multi-storey, making P1 the easy choice for a sub‑hour dash into arrivals. Long-stay is cheaper per day but comes with a catch: Aena’s page states access is reservation-only, and drive-ups without a confirmed booking get pushed to the general car park instead, at that higher P1 day rate.

The price gap is real: comparison sites repeatedly list Aena official parking at ALC (P1 and long-stay) as the most expensive bracket, while private shuttle parks start in the mid-teens for a week. Regulars treat that difference as a convenience fee rather than value, using Aena mainly when flight times are awkward, they’re travelling with kids, or they simply want their car under the airport’s own security cameras and gates.

Motorcycles are excluded from Aena’s long-stay: the rules call this out directly, with two-wheelers pushed to the separate free moto parking located next to the long-stay area instead of inside the gated car park. Some locals also keep a long-term contract with a private off-airport lot for most trips, then pay Aena’s day rate in the P1 multi-storey when doing a quick pickup or drop-off.

Practical tip: if you want Aena long-stay pricing, book online before you drive; turn up cold and you risk being diverted to General P1 at roughly €94 per 8-day stay.
