saturated car parks, soon to be paid for?

The free car parks at Tarbes Lourdes Pyrénées airport are completely saturated during the holidays. Not a free place during the day for travelers who go around in circles in their car. People end up parking on the medians or in the grass along the road so as not to miss their plane.

Pay for your place?

The airport also recommends that travelers anticipate their arrival and give priority, as far as possible, to carpooling, drop-off by relatives or to use the shuttles from Tarbes and Lourdes. The situation is new depending on the direction of the airport. It must also be said that free parking is one of the advantages of Tarbais airport compared to that of Pau.

However, some users come to wonder if they would prefer to pay to be sure of having a place. “I’m struggling. I’ve been shooting for a quarter of an hour”, explains this traveler who has never seen this in an airport. “Let them make free parking for airport staff, ok. But look at the lawns in what condition they are. It’s still sad!” Further on, an English tourist who comes for the flight to London is also annoyed at not finding handicapped place.

The management of the airport and Pyrénia, the owner, nevertheless claim to be thinking about “this situation of overactivity of the car parks” to study the possibilities of increasing the capacity or “consider the medium term” the end of free.
