The Business Travel Association has criticised increasing car drop-off fees at airports, following news that London City will introduce a levy while Bristol will raise its charge next week.
The announcements follow similar increases to drop-off charges at Heathrow and Gatwick.
Bristol Airport said the cost of using its Drop-Off & Pick-Up car park – which is the quickest option for terminal access – will increase from £7 to £8.50 for a 10-minute stay on Monday (January 5).
London City Airport said it will introduce a drop-off charge on Tuesday (January 6). The charge will be £8 for up to five minutes then £1 minute for any additional minutes, with a maximum stay of 10 minutes.
“This move is part of our commitment to encourage more travel to and from the airport via public and sustainable transport modes, of which two-thirds of our passengers already use,” said London City Airport in a statement.
