We are working on it. Have a look at car parks near other airports — we cover every airport in the country.
Poznań-Ławica (POZ) lies inside the city, west of the centre, and is one of the few Polish airports you can genuinely reach along city streets. For a driver leaving a car that means short approaches and lots scattered through the surrounding streets rather than strung along one main road. Below are the car parks around Ławica and what is worth settling before you drive.
How to reach Poznań Ławica airport
Driving to Ławica
The approach avoids the city centre entirely. From the east and south you take Poznań's toll-free stretch of the A2 motorway; heading towards Świecko you turn right at the Poznań-Zachód interchange, follow the S11 expressway to provincial road 307, and leave it at the Poznań-Ławica junction.
Coming from the west, you turn left at the same Poznań-Zachód interchange; from the north the S11 alone delivers you to the Poznań-Ławica junction. That matters if you are renting a car here too: the motorway network is reachable without crossing the built-up city, even though the airport sits inside the city limits, about 7 kilometres west of the centre.
Buses 159, 148 and 222
There is no train and no tram to the airport — the operator lists bus routes only. Line 159 runs between the airport and Poznań Główny, the main railway station; line 148 starts from Rondo Kaponiera; and 222 covers the night. The stops are either right beside the passenger terminals or a short walk from them, and the airport counts 16 stops in from the centre.
Buy tickets at the kiosks in the departures terminal, from the coin-only machine at the stop outside, or through the CallPay, moBILET, mPay and SkyCash apps. For a dawn departure that leaves the night 222 or a taxi from the rank by the arrivals hall.
Arriving at Bukowska 285
Road 307 is ul. Bukowska, and it ends at the terminal at number 285. The last stretch is an ordinary city street, and the airport's own signs show up only at the building.
There is one terminal but five entrances: two into the T2 section, two into the check-in hall and one into T3, which handles arrivals. Dropping someone off is easier if you know which door applies. Long-stay sites occupy the blocks around Bukowska — the same street, a stretch earlier.
The terminal and the drop-off
Ławica has one passenger terminal, with departures and arrivals split across levels. A shuttle will take you to departures and collect you outside arrivals on the way back — agree the spot with the crew, because the forecourt is narrow and drivers stop wherever a gap appears.
Because the airport is in the city, some of the sites are within a short walk rather than a shuttle ride. If you travel light, check the distance shown on the car park's card — here the transfer is sometimes a convenience rather than a necessity.
How the week runs
Ławica mixes business and holiday traffic, so the load spreads more evenly than at a purely charter airport. The busiest moments are Monday mornings and Friday afternoons, with a weekend charter wave on top in summer.
In winter it is worth thinking about where the car will stand. Frosts here run dry and long, and a week on an open site not uncommonly ends in a car that will not start. A space under a roof, or a site with staff who will help you get going, saves a good deal of aggravation.
Paying and booking
You pay for the booking online, at the moment you make it. BLIK, a payment card and an instant bank transfer are all accepted, the same methods you know from online shops. None of them costs more than the others, and there is no extra deposit collected at the barrier.
You pay the car park's price, with no booking or service fee. The price shown when you book is the final price for the whole stay. It covers the space and the transfer where the operator includes it in the rate; extra services are your own choice and appear as separate lines on the receipt. Once paid, you get an e-mail confirmation with a booking number, and that is your document on arrival.
Free cancellation runs until the cut-off set by the car park operator. You can see that cut-off on the car park's page before you pay. After a cancellation the money travels back the way it came, to the account or the card used at checkout.
What a secure lot means
"Secure" is a set of specifics, not a slogan. CCTV means cameras covering the bays, not just the gate. Fencing means an enclosed site with a controlled entrance. Lighting decides whether picking your car up at night is pleasant. The operator's policy defines what he answers for and what your own insurance covers, so ask about its scope before you leave the car.
Car keys are a separate question. Some lots ask you to leave them so they can shuffle cars on a tight site, others never touch the vehicle. Both practices are normal, but they differ in consequences: if the keys stay, take your documents and your garage remote out of the car, and leave the glovebox empty.
Getting the car ready
Take out everything valuable or personal: the laptop, documents, chargers, the road-toll device. In winter, top up the battery and switch to winter screen wash, because a car standing in frost for a week starts worse than one driven daily. In summer, park away from direct sun on the dashboard if the lot lets you choose.
Check your car's height if you drive a van, an SUV with a roof box or a bike rack on the roof. Multi-storey car parks at the terminals have a height barrier, and a taller car simply will not fit under it. Open-air lots off the airport grounds usually have no such limit — the car park's page tells you whether it is roofed or open.
Arriving at the car park
On arrival you give your booking number or show the confirmation e-mail. Staff note the registration plate, point you to a bay and, where the lot works that way, take the keys. It pays to enter the plate when booking, because then arriving comes down to the gate opening.
The transfer to the terminal usually leaves right after you park, and you order the return leg by phone once you have your luggage. The number is in the booking confirmation, and it is worth saving it on your phone before you fly, along with the site address — nobody wants to hunt through e-mail after a night landing.
Frequently asked questions
Which roads lead to Poznań Ławica, and will I have to drive through the city?
You will not. From the east and south, take Poznań's toll-free section of the A2 towards Świecko and leave the motorway at Poznań-Zachód, then use the S11 as far as provincial road 307 and exit at Poznań-Ławica; road 307 is ul. Bukowska and ends at the terminal, number 285. Approaching from the west you turn the other way at the same interchange, and from the north the S11 delivers you straight to that exit.
How do I get from the airport into central Poznań without a car?
By city bus. Line 159 links the airport with Poznań Główny, the main railway station, line 148 runs from Rondo Kaponiera and line 222 covers the night. The airport quotes 20 to 25 minutes and 16 stops from the centre, and the stops are beside the terminals or a short walk away. Tickets come from kiosks in the departures terminal, the coin-only machine at the stop, or the CallPay, moBILET, mPay and SkyCash apps.
Is there a train or tram to Poznań airport?
No. Poznań Ławica has no railway connection, and the operator's travel information lists bus routes only, so there is no tram running to the terminal either. In practice your options from the terminal are the 159, 148 and night 222 buses, a taxi from the rank by the arrivals hall, a pre-arranged transfer, or your own car — which is why a fair number of departing passengers park here for the trip.
Where do arrivals come out, and where is the easiest place to be met?
Poznań works from one integrated passenger terminal, and arrivals are handled in its T3 part; the airport information point in the main hall on that side is the simplest place to agree on. The taxi rank stands by the same frontage, so a pick-up by car works from there too. Because the building has several doors, tell whoever meets you which one you will use.
I am flying out of Poznań for two weeks — when is the terminal busiest, and does long-stay parking make sense this close to town?
The summer holidays are the crunch: August 2025 was the airport's best month ever at 520,193 passengers, July 2025 came in just under 505,000, and the monthly average that year was around 345,000. A new central security area with CT scanners opened in 2025, so liquids and electronics stay in your bag, but August weekends repay an early start. For a fortnight, the short drive does not remove the two transfers you would otherwise pay for, and in winter check whether a site offers covered spaces.
