Valet Parking

Drive-up valet beside T3/T4 cuts parking time to minutes

Valet Parking at Perth Airport sits directly outside Terminals T3 and T4, so you pull up, hand over the keys, and walk to check-in in under 2–3 minutes. It’s the closest car drop-off to Virgin Australia and regional departures in this part of the airport. This is the option when you care more about zero shuttle buses than shaving dollars off the day rate.

The service operates in line with flight schedules at T3/T4, typically from early-morning departures around 04:00 through late-night arrivals. You park at the signed Valet Parking entry near the T3/T4 forecourt, staff take odometer and damage photos, and your car goes into a secure area behind the terminals. On return, you collect your keys from the same valet desk by T3/T4 and the car is brought back to the front bay.

Pricing sits above the standard T3/T4 multi-storey and long-term car parks, with the premium mainly paying for the front-door location and key drop. It’s usually most economical for 1–3 day trips; longer than about five days, the per-day cost climbs compared with long-term options. If you’re expensing parking for a 2-day work run out of T3 or T4, this is usually the easiest line item to justify.

Access is post-roadway security but pre-terminal security, so factor in the usual 30–40 minutes for check-in and screening at T3/T4 after you leave the car. Height restrictions don’t apply the way they do in multi-storey car parks, but oversized vehicles and trailers typically aren’t accepted; check limits when you book. The bay is right on the terminal loop road, so keep your hazard lights on if there’s a queue of 3–4 cars ahead of you.

Practical tip: book Valet Parking online at least 24 hours in advance; drive-up rates at T3/T4 can be noticeably higher than the pre-booked price for the same dates.
