Birmingham Airport guide
BHX pick-up
If you are collecting someone from Birmingham Airport, plan to park rather than circling the terminal or stopping on airport roads.
Information checked: 27 August 2026
Recommended pick-up: Car Park 5
Birmingham Airport recommends Car Park 5 for meeting arriving passengers. It is approximately a 5 to 10 minute walk from the terminal and currently costs £12 for up to one hour on the turn-up tariff.
Wait until they are ready
Flight landing time is not the same as terminal exit time. Baggage reclaim and passport control can add substantial time, so ask the passenger to message when they are approaching arrivals if practical.
