P4 Sosta Lunga

€14 per day gets you into P4 Sosta Lunga’s on‑airport long stay

P4 Sosta Lunga sits about 900 meters from Pisa T1 and is the airport’s value long‑stay option when you want official parking without going to the very cheap off‑airport lots across the highway. It’s a classic long‑stay setup: automatic gate, take a ticket, park yourself, keep your keys, and then decide if you walk or grab the shuttle.

The published rate is around €14,00 per day, but Parkos and other brokers often price it lower, especially once you cross 5–7 days. That’s why expats heading out for 10–15 days routinely aim for the airport’s long‑stay instead of the terminal‑adjacent short‑stay car parks, which get punishingly expensive past day three.

The walk to terminal T1 is roughly 900 meters and takes about 10–12 minutes at a normal pace. There’s also an airport shuttle that runs roughly every 20 minutes and needs about 10 minutes to cover the loop between P4 Sosta Lunga and the small terminal. Figure around 20–30 minutes total from locking your car to standing at security if you just missed a shuttle.

Parkos reviews for Pisa long‑stay mention that with P4‑type parking you keep your keys, unlike some off‑site “across the highway” operators that move cars around. That matters if you’re leaving the vehicle for two weeks and don’t want mystery mileage or new scratches. For stays beyond about 10 days, regulars say they start comparing P4 pricing to those independent lots, because off‑site can undercut the airport once you pass that length of stay.

Watch out for: a few first‑timers complain the walking route from P4 toward T1 is not obvious from broker confirmations, so they lose a few minutes looking for the right exit path. In peak summer, regulars on Parkos say they book P4 well in advance because the cheaper on‑airport long‑stay inventory disappears quickly on broker sites during school holidays. Tip: screenshot your broker voucher with the lot name “P4 Sosta Lunga” and arrival instructions before you drive, then follow airport signs for P4 once you reach the terminal area.
