P2 Parking Garage

P2 sits directly under Terminal 2 with a 1‑minute walk

P2 Parking Garage sits right under T2 at Shanghai Pudong, with elevator access that drops you near the China Eastern check‑in counters in about a 1‑minute walk. It’s a short‑term garage, clearly signed on the approach roads as “P2 T2 Parking,” so you don’t need to loop the whole airport ring road to find it.

Pricing is simple: the first 20 minutes are free, then it’s about 10 RMB per hour for small cars, capped at 110 RMB per day. That works well for drop‑offs, quick pick‑ups, or same‑day trips where you want the car right under Terminal 2 instead of out at the longer‑stay P4 lots.

This is the closest structured parking to T2, physically under the terminal building, with elevators linking the garage levels to the departures and arrivals halls. If you’re wrangling two suitcases and a stroller, rolling from your parking bay to the China Eastern check‑in desks usually takes under 5 minutes, including elevator time.

Locals who fly China Eastern out of T2 often drive into P2, unload relatives and heavy bags at the elevator nearest their specific airline island, then decide on the spot whether to keep the car parked at 110 RMB per day or exit and switch to ride‑hailing from the T2 forecourt. That tactic keeps the terminal access but avoids paying P2’s higher rate for multi‑day trips compared with P4.

There are no major complaint patterns in recent reports, but remember this is a short‑stay garage under a busy T2. Spaces near the main elevator banks fill first during morning China Eastern bank times around 07:00–09:00. If you’re parking for more than 48 hours, run the math: for three‑day trips, it’s usually cheaper to park in P4 and take the shuttle, then save P2 for drop‑off and pick‑up only.

Tip: Use the 20‑minute free period at P2 for stress‑free drop‑offs: drive in, park near the central elevator, unload everyone and every suitcase, walk them up to T2 departures, then exit the garage before the free window ends.
