Airports: Fees and Charges

Asked by Peter LambLabourDepartment for TransportTabled Answered 30 January 2026UIN 107924

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether her Department plans to regulate drop-off charges at airports.

Answered by Keir Mather

The provision and charging of car parking at airports, including drop-off charges is a matter for the airport operator as a commercial business to manage and justify. Government expects fees to be set in a way that is both fair and transparent.
