Pick-up & drop-off zone

The pick-up and drop-off zones are for immediate loading and unloading only as we need to keep the zones congestion free to ensure all passengers make their flights and can be picked up with ease. It is unlawful to leave your vehicle unattended in a No Parking zone and therefore failure to comply may result in an infringement notice being issued.
