Airports: Fees and Charges

Asked by Jerome MayhewConservativeDepartment for TransportTabled Answered 16 March 2026UIN 119452

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 23 February 2026 to Question 112226 on Airports: Fees and Charges, whether her Department plans to collect information from airports on the level of kerbside drop-off charges paid by passengers.

Answered by Keir Mather

Kerbside drop‑off charges are commercial matters for airports to set and justify to their customers, and information on charge levels is already freely available on airports’ respective public websites.

The Department collects a range of information on airports’ surface access strategies through our regular engagement with airport operators, and drop‑off charges form part of these wider discussions.
