Parkade 2 North

First 30 minutes at Parkade 2 North come in at R0

Parkade 2 North sits right at O. R. Tambo’s terminal complex and works best if you’re in and out within a day. The tariff board for “Parkade Two Drop Off” shows the first 30 minutes free, then R30 up to 1 hour, R50 up to 2 hours, and a 12–24 hour cap of R220. That R220 cap effectively functions as the short‑stay daily rate for most drivers.

This is a multi‑storey, short‑term parkade that many people stretch into overnight use when they want to stay close to Terminals A and B instead of using valet. The pricing steps up in 12‑hour blocks: after the first 24 hours at R220, you pay R96 per additional 12 hours. That means a 36‑hour stay comes out around R316, and a full 48 hours about R412, so the value clearly skews toward visits under or around a day.

You’re parking in a covered structure, which helps in Johannesburg summer storms and winter cold. Access feeds directly toward the main terminal drop‑off roads for O. R. Tambo, so walking time from your bay to check‑in in Terminal A or B is usually in the 3–8 minute range, depending on level and section. Signage can mention “Parkade 2 North” or “Parkade Two Drop Off,” but the tariffs match: same R0 first 30 minutes, same R220 cap for 12–24 hours.

Practical tip: if your trip runs past 24 hours, do the maths before pulling a ticket here: once you cross the 36–48 hour mark, that R96 per extra 12 hours can make longer stays at Parkade 2 North more expensive than off‑airport or long‑stay options, even though the R220 first‑day cap looks fair.
