We recently informed you about the introduction of a new barrierless system for Express Set Down at London Stansted Airport. We are now pleased to confirm this system will be in place from Wednesday 22nd January 2025. 

From then, you will be able to drive straight through and pay your charges remotely, eliminating the need to stop at a barrier. 

What does this mean for you as a member of the local resident discount scheme? 

The barrierless system will make dropping off and picking up passengers more convenient by reducing wait times and improving traffic flow.  

To make your journey even easier, we recommend creating an account where you can add a payment card. This will allow for automatic payments for each of your journeys through the Express Set Down. You can create your account now by clicking here.

Alternatively, once the new system is introduced, you will be able to pay online or by phone after your visit to the Express Set Down area. Please note that payment must be made by midnight the day after your visit to avoid a Parking Charge being sent to the vehicle holder. Here are the ways to pay: 

Online: https://pay.stanstedairport.com/  

Phone: 0345 017 5046 

You will no longer need to present a physical discount card when exiting the Express Set Down area. Instead, your vehicle registration will automatically be registered to apply your discount. If you have provided a second vehicle registration, that will also be included.
