Vitoria-Gasteiz Airport parking will no longer be free from 2027

According to Aena, the "significant" increase in the activity of the  airport has been a consequence of the decision. The General Deputy of Álava, Ramiro González, has assured the media that the decision has been repeated.

The parking lot at Vitoria-Gasteiz Airport will no longer be free from next year. The public society Aena today published the competition for the management of parking spaces at 33 state airports, including the airport in Álava. 

The parking lot in Foronda has about600 places and has so far always been free. Behind the reason for the conversion to pay, Aena explains, is the increase in airport activity in recent years.

The increase in charter flights and regular flights has led to an increase in the numberof passengers, and it is necessary to ensure 'the safety and quality of parking', according to the source.

The Provincial Council, "no news"

For his part, the General Representative of Álava, Ramiro González, has explained that until today he had no knowledge of Aena's decision and has assured him that he has heard about it through the media, despite several contacts with the airport director in recent weeks.

"We have not been informed. The Provincial Council of Álava has had nothing to do with the decision, it has known it through the media. That is what needs to be changed," explained González, following his meeting with representatives of the other two Basque deputies to agree on fiscal measures in the context of the war in Iran. 

The Deputy General believes that the agreement signed last week between the President, Imanol Pradales, and the President of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, on airports should serve as a voice on this type of issue. "The agreement will allow us to participate in airport management in one way or another."
