Parking at Bodø Airport
Bodø Airport has a barrier-free, ticketless parking system with automatic number-plate recognition, run by OnePark (Autopay) for Avinor. Cheapest is P6 at 329 kr per 24 hrs and 979 kr for a week. Free drive-through for pick-up is 10 minutes. A new airport is planned to open for operational testing on 30 August 2029. Booking ahead on avinor.no gives the best price.
Parking overview
The parking has 599 spaces and is run by OnePark for Avinor with automatic number-plate recognition (Autopay) – the car is registered on entry and exit, and you pay after the stay ends. The areas are split by distance and price: P1 is closest to the terminal (highest daily rate), while P2 and P6 are cheaper options a bit further out. Pre-booking gives seamless parking where your plate acts as the «entry ticket».
| Zone | Per 30 min | 1 day | 1 week (8 days) | Then per day |

| P6 (cheapest) | 37 kr | 329 kr | 979 kr | 140 kr |
| P2 (long-term) | 37 kr | 349 kr | 1,099 kr | 185 kr |

Private parking options
Bodø is served by the airport's own parking areas; pre-booking via avinor.no gives the lowest price.
Pick-up and drop-off
There is free drive-through for up to 10 minutes for dropping off and picking up – exit within 10 minutes and you are not charged. Pay within 48 hours in the Autopay app, at autopay.io or at the machine. If you do not, a «Pay Later» invoice arrives with a 59 kr fee plus a 10 kr invoice fee – a charge the Norwegian Consumer Council has criticised. Foreign plates cannot be invoiced and must pay at the machine or in the app before leaving.
EV charging
There are EV charging spaces at the airport; the car must be actively charging and be moved to a normal space when finished. Numbers and power are not published – follow the signs for charging terms.
Tips and pitfalls from travellers
- Long-term: choose P6 (329 kr per 24 hrs, 979 kr/week) or P2 rather than short-term P1, which has the highest daily rate.
- Just picking up/dropping off: stay under the 10-minute free drive-through – and arrange payment straight away if you go over.
- Pre-book in busy periods for a guaranteed space and usually a lower price than drive-up.
- A new airport is planned to open for operational testing on 30 August 2029.
Common pitfalls
Plate recognition + unpaid = shock bill
The OnePark facilities in the north are known for short pick-ups with payment trouble ending in large invoices with fees. Pay within 48 hours at autopay.io or in the app, and check the amount against your actual time.
The «Pay Later» fee
Wait for an invoice and 59 kr plus a 10 kr invoice fee are added on top of the charge – the Norwegian Consumer Council has criticised the scheme. Foreign plates cannot be invoiced at all.
P1 is the most expensive for long-term
P1 is closest and has the highest daily rate – fine for short stops, expensive over several days. Choose P2 or P6 for long-term parking.
The 10-minute limit applies at exit
Stay longer than 10 minutes when picking up and the ordinary rate runs from the very start.
