SYD Intl 15min free parking

[David O.]

Hi, I was just wondering how I get to the 15 minutes free parking at the international terminal. Do I just go in via the red or blue line, in my pic? And exit via the only exit?



Or is there some other method? The website I use is www.nearmap.com

Thanks for the assistance. Need to find out for tomorrow when my brother comes home.

Hi david,

can go in either way also via departures level.
You are correct, there is only 1 exit.

Thanks Jacob, could someone else re-confirm this? I just want to make sure that I won't be paying $7 for half an hour.

I've tried it a few times. As long as you validate your ticket on the pay station within 15 minutes of collecting your ticket upon entering the car park, it's free. It's a close call I must admit. I've gone in and out in 14 minutes twice.

Hey Ryan, when you say paystation, do you mean the exit booths or do I have to get out of my car and go over to a machine?

Ryan summed it up nicely.

The key is simple - wait until the person you are picking up is actually at the car park. They might have to wait 5 minutes, but it is not worth it for you to stay waiting for them.

If you have less than the 15 minutes, go straight to the exit booths, insert the ticket and it captures it, opening the gate.
