Staff should only be dropped off or picked up from the North and South Terminal forecourts. Red routes will be in operation around the airport road network. Vehicles recorded stopping, loading or unloading on the red routes may be subject to an enforcement charge.

  • Download and complete the Forecourt Access Request Form
  • You'll need to provide your Airport ID pass number and the vehicle registration details. Each member of staff can have up to 2 vehicles registered.
  • Email your completed form here
  • You will receive a confirmation email that your vehicle has been added.

Please note it may take up to five working days between the Forecourt Charging Team receiving your application and confirming that your vehicle has been added to the exemption list.
