Sydney International Car Parking

[robolb]

I have to drop off a couple of people at the International Terminal in Sydney.
I'll hang around 3 hours or so till their flight leaves.

I was checking out booking parking online, rather than just rock up as I normally do.
But it's a bit confusing.

If you look at the three options.
The middle one gives you a guaranteed space.
So, the left (cheaper one) doesn't? Just pot luck maybe.........

You won't be able to go airside with them without a ticket (and passport)

Correct. At best drop off, checkin and wave good bye at departure passport control.

Yes I understand that

I'll help them check in (sometimes language issues) and then generally I'll hang around land side till they depart.

Or at least until "She Who Must Be Obeyed" calls to say they are through OK and now commencing duty free shopping and eating everything within reach in the Q Club.

It would appear on further research, that the difference between the $64.90 and the $90 car park booking could be.........
That for $90 you have a few less metres to walk into the terminal.
But not altogether clear..........at all........

That's my read. Cheaper version - park anywhere available (they will quarantine off the most convenient spaces for the higher paying punters). 'Anywhere' might be parking Siberia, in the open. Pay more and you'll park closer and under cover.

$60- $90 for four freak'n hours??

About the same cost as Sydney CBD parking these days!

P7 is a multi story.
The guaranteed parking spaces are on the lower levels. Not much more convenience than the regular parking.
Go with the cheaper option.
