Pickup, drop-off, and charges

Cardiff Airport is a small, easy to navigate airport with one terminal. For meet and greet, your driver waits inside arrivals with a name board. Short stay parking is charged at cost. For curbside pickup, your driver waits outside the terminal. Cardiff is well positioned for south Wales and the M4 corridor.

Meet and greet, airport parking, and waiting charges are additional and confirmed in your quote before you book.

Flight tracking is standard, so live arrival changes can be handled inside the booking.
