3–4 minute walk from Terminal 1 departures
Airport Car Park Right Side sits beside Jeju International Airport Terminal 1, across the access road from the main departures curb. It is marked as the short and medium stay option on airport maps, so it suits anything from a quick pickup to a long weekend. You park your own car, keep your keys, and walk straight into the terminal without waiting for a shuttle.
This car park targets short and medium stays rather than long-term storage, so prices add up by the day instead of by the week. Check current hourly and daily rates on the Jeju Airport site before you drive in, especially during summer and Chuseok, when day rates can spike and spaces near the pedestrian exit fill first. Payment machines accept standard Korean cards, and you exit through automatic gates after paying.
The layout is open-air with standard-sized spaces, better suited to regular sedans and compact SUVs than oversized vans. Lanes run parallel to the terminal, so if you are flying from a domestic gate in Terminal 1, aim for rows closest to the pedestrian crossing to keep your walk under 5 minutes with luggage. Lighting poles cover the main rows, which helps if you land after 22:00 and still need to find your car easily.
If you are dropping off someone for a same-day round-trip, this right-side car park often works out cheaper and less stressful than circling the curb multiple times. Grab a ticket at the barrier, park in the first open row, walk to departures, and pay at a machine on your way back before returning to your car. One simple tip: snap a photo of your row number and nearest payment machine so the return walk after landing stays as short as the flight from Busan.
