Default Is there free parking at Abu Dhabi airport?

I remember someone once telling me that there was some land next to AD airport where you can leave your car for free. Is this true? Do you get parking fines? And where is it exactly?

Thanks

if not, what is the cheapest place to park?

Its just before the paying car park, off to the right, if that makes sense but its usually quite full, so don't rely on it. In this weather why bother, Take a cab?

ah right, Dont rely on the free parking lot as you could find its full, and then you will have no choice but to put it in the paying car park and its very expensive.

Got any friends in AD that you could park outside their house and then take a cab to the airport?

people park in the car park that is meant to be used for the park, but you will not find any space there, so you would have to pay for the car parking, which is quite expensive, its usually cheaper to get a return taxi than pay for the car parking, if you can leave the car outside someones house in ad then the taxi fare would only be around 75 dhs from town to airport.

yes i do, but added that actually its not a free car park for the airport its actually for the park that is next door and did you mention anything about the cost of taxis from town, no, didnt think so, so not actually the same as you.

I do wonder that about you Bizzy???

You did the same on the school fees thread as if your corroboration of what one poster says(in that case, Meow) makes it more credible...why do you do that?

I suggest you read the whole thread again or do you have problems with reading as well grammar and punctuation
