Parking at Alta Airport
Alta Airport has ticketless drop-in parking with automatic number-plate recognition, run by OnePark (Autopay) for Avinor. The pricing is simple: the first 10 minutes are free, then 37 kr per half hour with caps of 299 kr per 24 hrs and 799 kr for a week. Booking ahead on avinor.no gives the best price. (Note: this is airport parking – the municipal city parking in central Alta has its own prices and app.)
Parking overview
The lots are run by OnePark for Avinor, ticketless with automatic number-plate recognition – you drive in, park and pay after the stay ends. Alta Airport is compact; the main area (P1) works as drop-in, with short and long stays in the same system. The barrier was removed back in 2017, so you can never be «locked in» – but the claim follows your plate, so pay within 48 hours.
| Zone | Per 30 min | 1 day | 1 week (8 days) | Then per day |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| P1 (drop-in, short and long stays) | 37 kr | 299 kr | 799 kr | 96 kr |
Prices are approximate and change. Book ahead and check avinor.no for current prices.
Private parking options
Alta Airport is served by the airport's own parking areas via OnePark – there is no established private park-and-fly operator with documented operations at the airport. Pre-booking on avinor.no gives the lowest price.
Pick-up and drop-off
For dropping off and picking up you have free drive-through for up to 10 minutes – exit within 10 minutes and you pay nothing. The free minutes are not deducted if you stay longer; the time then counts from entry. Pay in the Autopay app, at the machine or at autopay.io within 48 hours; an invoice (Pay Later) costs 59 kr plus a 10 kr invoice fee.
EV charging
Avinor does not list dedicated charging spaces for Alta Airport online – check the signs on site before counting on charging.
Tips and pitfalls from travellers
- Pre-book on avinor.no for a usually lower price than drop-in and a guaranteed space.
- Use the 10 free minutes for pick-up/drop-off – but be quick, they are not deducted if you stay longer.
- Week-long trip: the cap is 799 kr for 8 days, then 96 kr per 24 hrs – simple, predictable pricing.
- Do not mix up the airport parking with the municipal city parking in central Alta – they have their own prices and app.
Common pitfalls
No barrier does not mean free
The facility has been barrier-free since 2017 – you can drive straight out, but the camera has registered your plate. Pay within 48 hours at autopay.io or in the app, or an invoice arrives with 59 kr plus a 10 kr fee.
The free minutes are not deducted
Stay longer than 10 minutes and the rate counts from entry – not from minute 11.
Check charging before relying on it
Avinor does not list dedicated charging spaces for Alta online. Do not count on charging without checking the signs on site.
Summary
Alta Airport has compact, ticketless parking run by OnePark – one main area (P1) covering both short and long stays: 37 kr per half hour, capped at 299 kr per 24 hrs and 799 kr/week, then 96 kr per 24 hrs. Free drive-through for pick-up is 10 minutes, and the facility is barrier-free – pay within 48 hours. Pre-booking on avinor.no is usually cheaper and guarantees a space.
