FAAN Reviews Motor Park, Access Gate Fees In PH

The management of the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), Omagwa, Port Harcourt, has announced an upward review of its car park and access gate fees, with the new tariff set to take effect from March 1, 2026

The decision, which was disclosed in an internal memorandum dated February 12, 2026, was addressed to Heads of Departments, directing immediate public sensitisation to inform airport users and stakeholders ahead of implementation.

Under the new structure, private cars will pay ?500 for car park and access gate use, while Sports Utility Vehicles (SUVs) and Jeeps will be charged ?1,000. Coaster buses will pay ?2,000, and vehicles parked overnight will attract a flat rate of ?10,000.

Trucks and container-laden vehicles with more than six tyres will also pay ?3,000 at the access gate.

The Airport authorities said the review reflects rising operational and infrastructural costs, stressing the need for adequate public awareness to minimise confusion and resistance among users.

The adjustment follows a recent nationwide announcement by the FAAN on revised service charges across airports, aimed at improving service delivery, maintaining infrastructure, and addressing increasing operational expenses.

The statement said the measure is to ensure and maintain sustainable airport standard of developments in the area.
