P4 sits in the low-cost zone, about 8–10 minutes from T1
P4 is Bergamo’s low-cost car park option, set in the outer parking area and serving Terminal T1 with a short walk of roughly 8–10 minutes depending on where you park. It’s an official airport car park, so you enter via the main access roads signposted “P4 Low Cost” as you approach Il Caravaggio International Airport (BGY). You park your own car, keep your keys, and head on foot toward the terminal entrance on the T1 side.
Pricing at P4 sits below the P1 and P2 car parks and is aimed at longer stays of several days or more; online prebooking through the official Milan Bergamo airport site usually gives the lowest daily rate compared with paying at the machine on exit. Entry uses a ticket or QR code at the automatic barrier and payment works via card or cash at the onsite pay stations near the pedestrian exit toward T1. For short trips of under 24 hours, nearby car parks may come out cheaper per hour.
P4 is uncovered, so your car sits in open-air bays for the full stay, which matters in July and August when Bergamo temperatures can push above 30°C in the T1 forecourt area. Lighting runs across the lanes for late arrivals and overnight returns after 22:00, and marked paths guide you toward the main pedestrian route to the terminal. Luggage trolleys are usually collected near the exit points closest to T1, so you may want to pull in on the side nearest the terminal if you have heavier bags.
There’s no shuttle bus from P4 to T1, so everything is on foot and that 8–10 minute walk with kids or ski gear can feel longer around the 05:30–07:30 departure bank. If you’re landing after midnight, remember that pay machines in the P4 area stay active around the clock, but the info desks in T1 shut earlier in the evening. One practical tip: book online, print or save your QR code, and snap a phone photo of your row number before you wheel your bags toward the T1 departures doors.
