LongTerm Parking

Daily rate clocks in at $20, weekly at $100

LongTerm Parking at Perth Airport sits about 0.5 miles from the terminals and prices out at $20 per day or $100 for a full week, so it starts to make sense around the four-night mark. It’s the long-stay option to look at if you’re leaving the car while you head out on a longer trip from T1–T4 and don’t want the on-airport short stay prices piling up.

Walking the 0.5 miles takes around 5 minutes at a normal pace, which works for T3 and T4 early birds who like to build in time before FIFO crowds hit the check-in lines. If you don’t feel like dragging bags in the heat or rain, there’s also a shuttle in the mix, but you’ll want to pad your schedule.

The shuttle loop runs about 15 minutes end to end and can easily turn into 30 minutes door-to-door once you add loading time and a queue at the stops. Figure that into your timing if you have a dawn departure from T1 or T2, especially on Monday mornings when FIFO traffic spikes and every extra minute in the car park feels slower.

One perk you don’t see advertised much: reviews mention a heated waiting room near the LongTerm Parking shuttle stop, which helps on those cold Perth winter mornings at 05:30. That small room makes the 15-minute shuttle wait less painful than standing outside on the kerb watching full FIFO buses roll past.

Watch out for roadworks around the airport access roads, which several drivers say add unexpected minutes before you even reach the LongTerm Parking entrance. Build a 15–20 minute buffer on top of your normal drive and plan to park, reach the heated waiting room if needed, and catch a shuttle one full cycle (15 minutes) earlier than your minimum.
