Parking costs approximate, June 2026. Taxi fare fixed at booking.
For short trips (1-3 days), parking and taxi are often comparable in cost. But taxi wins on convenience every time — door-to-terminal, no shuttle, no multi-storey car park at 4am, no remembering where you parked.
For trips of 4+ days, parking often becomes cheaper. For trips of 1-3 days with 2+ passengers, split taxi fare frequently beats parking per head.
