Valet Parking

₹800 per day gets you drop-and-go valet next to T1/T2

Daily valet parking at Thiruvananthapuram International Airport runs ₹800 and sits right next to both T1 and T2, so you hand over the keys and walk a short stretch to check-in. This works best if you’re carrying big bags or traveling with kids or older parents and don’t want to deal with the regular parking rows.

The valet zone is in the terminal-side parking area, closer than the standard car park that sits farther from T1 and T2. You pull up to the marked valet bay, a staff member logs your vehicle number on a slip, and they handle parking in the main lot while you head straight toward the terminal doors.

At ₹800 per 24 hours, valet costs more than the basic parking tariff but buys back the 10–15 minutes you’d usually spend finding a slot and walking in from the outer sections. For short business trips of one or two days, the difference against self-park is usually under a couple of hundred rupees but can save you cutting it close for a morning IndiGo or Air India departure.

Pick-up runs the same way in reverse: when you land back at TRV, you call the number on your valet slip from baggage claim in T1 or T2, and staff bring the car up to the same drop zone. Factor in 5–10 minutes from phone call to car arrival, especially if several flights from Delhi or Bengaluru land around the same time.

Tip: Keep a photo of your valet ticket on your phone and call as soon as your bags hit the belt at TRV; that timing usually lines up the car’s arrival with your walk out of T1 or T2.
