Long-term Parking D

Seven-day trips sit nicely in Long-term Parking D

Five minutes on foot from T1, Long-term Parking D is the on-site long-stay field where locals leave the car for a week and stop thinking about it. It’s open-air, standard surface parking, laid out in long rows with basic CCTV coverage but none of the visible barrier feel you see in the premium and VIP zones closer to the terminal.

A Polish reviewer who parked for 7 days calls it “fine, lots of space” and stresses the walk to T1 is genuinely short at about 5 minutes at normal pace. Another regular says week-long parking here is “not expensive by European standards,” so D tends to make the most sense once you hit 3–4 days and up, especially versus daily rates in the closer short-stay areas.

The lot is open 24/7, but reviews flag the lighting: parts of the long-stay area feel “a bit dark” late in the evening, especially in the rows furthest from the main pedestrian route to T1. The layout is also simple to enter from the airport access road yet feels more exposed on the street side due to the lack of full fencing you might expect from a premium car park.

Wayfinding back to your exact row can be the small pain point. Several users mention that at night it can take an extra 3–5 minutes to relocate a car parked deep in Long-term Parking D, as the sector markings and directional signs aren’t very clear once you’re away from the main path. Winter reviews also mention patches of mud or slush on the walk from the furthest rows to the terminal access road.

What regulars do:

• Pre-book Long-term Parking D online for multi-day stays, particularly during July–August holidays, to lock in lower long-stay pricing.
• Take a quick photo of the nearest pole or row number when you park so that the 5-minute walk back from T1 at night doesn’t turn into a 15-minute search.

Tip: If you’re landing after 22:00, bring your phone flashlight for the darker patches and aim to park closer to the main pedestrian route to T1, even if it means driving an extra loop through the rows.
