The setting of vehicle drop-off charges is a commercial matter for individual airport operators to decide and justify to their customers.

We are clear that airports must ensure that information about parking options and charges that apply is easily accessible to passengers and that parking and drop-off arrangements support the safe and efficient operation of the airport.
