OR Tambo International Airport will offer travellers greater parking convenience from February 1 when the current Super South area closes and a new long-term parking area opens in the new parkade just 500m from the airport terminals.
The fees for using the new long-term parking facility will remain at current levels provided travellers book online.
Travellers using the existing long-term parking area currently need to wait for a shuttle bus, which can result in delays due to the high volume of traffic on roads around the airport.
The new long-term parking area in the MSP2 parkade under the City Lodge hotel offers 4 300 parking bays over five levels. This parkade is a five-minute walk from the domestic and international terminals.
Directional signage for the new long-term parking area has been installed on airport access roads.
The long-term parking area is ideal for travellers who will be away for three days or longer. Travellers can book via the ‘Book Parking Online’ link at www.airports.co.za,
Travellers can save up to 50% of their total parking fee by booking up to five days in advance. Discounts start at 10 per cent for booking one day in advance, 20 percent for booking two days in advance and up to 50 per cent for the five-day maximum advance booking period.
