150 meters from Terminal T1, P4 Business keeps things simple
P4 Business sits roughly 150 meters from Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport’s T1, close enough to walk the distance in about 3–4 minutes with a small bag. It’s an official airport business car park, so you park inside the airport perimeter and follow clear pedestrian paths straight to departures.
This is an uncovered, outdoor business parking area, laid out in standard bays sized for regular cars rather than oversized vehicles or vans. Access is via the main airport road that also feeds P1, P2, and P3, with P4 Business signposted on approach to BLQ. If you’re using GPS, set it directly to “Parcheggio P4 Business BLQ” to avoid being routed to the short-stay areas in front of T1.
P4 Business typically prices above long‑stay car parks like P3, but under the premium short‑stay tariffs right at the terminal doors. You pay at automatic machines that accept major cards and cash, or at pay stations in the terminal, before exiting through the barrier. For stays of 1–3 days the math usually beats taking a taxi from central Bologna, especially if two people are traveling.
The walk from P4 Business to the T1 check‑in area is on a paved route, lit at night, and takes under 5 minutes at regular pace. There’s no dedicated shuttle specific to P4 Business, so if you need step‑free access, plan for a slow walk and use the elevators once inside T1. Directional signs point to “Partenze / Departures” from the car park edge.
Book online at least 24 hours ahead to lock in lower P4 Business rates and skip circling for a space during busy Friday morning and Monday evening banks of flights.
