ARTICLE 1. SUBJECT AND SCOPE OF OUR GTCS
We operate the e-commerce website store.toulouse.aeroport.fr (referred to as “our website”) and the mobile application “Aéroport Toulouse Blagnac”, which can be run in Android and iOS environments (referred to as “our app”), via which we offer our services and subscription packages.
We offer users (referred to as “you”) of our website and our app the option of ordering services and taking out subscriptions, in the conditions laid down by these general terms and conditions of sale (referred to as “our GTCS”).
Our GTCS also apply if you order our services or take up a subscription offer via other means, for example at one of our information desks. Our GTCS take precedence over any other document or agreement that pre-dates the signing of the contract, even if we discussed the matter verbally or in writing beforehand.
Please read this document carefully. If you want to order our services, you must read through our GTCS and agree to them without reservation: in other words, without amending them, adding anything to them or deleting anything from them. If you place an order on behalf of a third party, you must make sure that the person concerned is aware of the terms of use applicable to our services.
We reserve the right to amend our GTCS at any time. The latest version applies as soon as it is published on our website and on our app and cancels and replaces all other versions of the general terms and conditions.
If you ordered a service, your order will be covered by the version of our GTCS that applied when you made the order.
If you took out a subscription, the new version of our GTCS will apply to your subscription when it comes into force. We will send you an email to notify you that our GTCS have been amended. If you do not agree with the new version of our GTCS, you can terminate your subscription. To do that, please contact our customer service. If you do not terminate your subscription before the new version of our GTCS comes into force, we will assume that you agree to the new version.
ARTICLE 2. DESCRIPTION AND TERMS OF USE OF OUR SERVICES
We sell several services that make your visit to Toulouse-Blagnac Airport easier and more pleasant, and we offer you the chance to purchase one of our subscription packages.
In the event of a breach of any of your obligations, in particular with regard to payment, we reserve the right to no longer provide you with access to the services, until such breach has been remedied.
2.1 Parking Service
2.1.1 Description of the Service
We offer an airport parking pre-booking service, based on a given date and time and for a specific length of time. You can also take out a subscription to the parking service (see Article 2.1.5 “Special Provisions for Parking Subscriptions”).
Booking guarantees there will be a parking space for your vehicle, possibly in a given area of the car park, in your chosen car park and for the chosen length of time. However, you will not be assigned a specific parking space. You can only park in a free space, identified by floor marking. You are not allowed to park anywhere other than in the marked spaces. Some parking spaces are reserved for people with a disability and people with reduced mobility. They are clearly marked as such.
Because there is a limited number of parking spaces, the booking service is only available if there are enough free spaces in the car park during the chosen period.
Parking charges depend on which car park you choose, the date and length of time requested.
In exceptional circumstances, we may have to close some or all of our car parks for operational reasons (e.g. for building work, or if there is a technical problem). If that happens, we will do our best to offer you an alternative solution by transferring your booking or vehicle to another car park, at no extra cost to you. If you do not agree to the solution offered, you can ask to terminate your contract, and we will refund the remaining car parking time.
2.1.2 Booking the Service
Unless you have a subscription, you can only book a parking space for a period of between six (6) hours and ninety (90) calendar days. You cannot book a parking space for a shorter or longer period.
For technical reasons, the booking can only be confirmed at the earliest six (6) months and at the latest one (1) hour before the planned start of the booking.
2.1.3 Rules for Using Our Car Parks
When you drive or park in our car parks, you agree to comply with the Rules for using public and private car parks at Toulouse-Blagnac Airport, or with any subsequent regulations, in their current version, which are available on our website and on our app and displayed at the car park entrance, as well as the Highway Code, the signs displayed in our car parks and any instructions you receive from car park staff.
Subscribers confirm that they are aware of the rules for using our car parks. They agree to those rules without reservation and undertake to pass them on to every user. The rules for using our car parks may be amended at any time and subscribers will not receive personal notification about the changes. The version in force is displayed at every car park entrance and is available on the airport website: https://www.toulouse.aeroport.fr/en.
If you break any of the driving and parking rules, you may be fined or prosecuted by the traffic police.
If a vehicle is parked improperly (e.g. in a no-parking area, badly parked, blocking traffic) or overstays the length of time on your booking, we reserve the right to move the vehicle in question at your expense. If urgent work is required, or if necessary for operation of the car parks, we reserve the right to move any vehicle that blocks access to the area, at our own expense. Our staff will draw up a vehicle condition report before and after the vehicle is moved.
2.1.4 Conditions for Entering and Leaving Our Car Parks
You can only enter a car park if your vehicle does not exceed the maximum height authorised for that car park. The maximum height depends on which car park you choose.
Here is a recap:
- Premium Car Park, P1 and P2: 2.10 metres;
- P3: 4 metres;
- P5 and P6: 3.10 metres.
Those maximum heights may change over time, and the valid figures are the ones available online when you make your booking and those displayed at the car park entrance.
When you book a parking space, after confirming your order, you will receive an access code for the car park you selected. The code can only be used once. When you arrive at the car park, you will need to enter and confirm your access code directly at one of the entrance barriers. You must enter your access code to confirm your booking at the car park entrance. If you do not enter your access code, we will assume that you did not use your pre-booked space, and you will have to pay for your parking space at the applicable hourly rate.
Unless you made a late booking, you will be able to enter the car park you selected two (2) hours before the official start of your booking, and for up to ninety-nine (99) hours after the start of the booking. If you made the booking between two (2) hours and one (1) hour before the official start time, you can only enter the car park at the actual time stipulated on your booking.
When you enter the car park, you will receive a ticket for leaving the car park. You must keep that ticket in a safe place, because you will need it in order to leave the car park with your vehicle. Users are asked not to leave their ticket in the vehicle.
You must leave the car park three (3) hours at the latest after the official end of your booking. If you leave later, you will have to pay an extra amount to cover the extra time not included in the booking. The extra amount will be calculated according to our standard charges for parking in our car parks, with no reduction, because the extra time will be calculated from the end of the booking time.
You can only leave the car park once, so you will not be able to re-enter the car park with the same access code, even if there is still some time left on your booking.
We will not give you a refund for any booking you did not use, or if you entered later than planned or left earlier.
2.1.5 Special Provisions for Parking Subscriptions
If you take out a parking subscription, you have the right, for the entire duration of the subscription, to park your vehicle in the car park covered by the subscription, and to enter and leave that car park as often as you like, simply by showing your subscription pass.
If you park in a car park that is not the one covered by your subscription, you will have to pay the applicable hourly rate. By way of exception, the “Premium” subscription gives you access to all car parks.
You can take out a subscription via our website or our app (from 01/04/2025) or at the car park reception desk on the ground floor of car park P2.
You can either collect your subscription pass from our Car Park & Access desk, or have it sent to the address you gave when you purchased the subscription. An extra delivery charge may be applied if we send your pass by post.
The subscription pass will be available no later than forty-eight (48) hours after you subscribe, not including delivery times. Your subscription pass is personal and non-transferable, so you are not allowed to lend it to someone else.
If you lose your pass or if it is stolen, please let us know by sending an email to reservation@toulouse.aeroport.fr as soon as you realise it is missing. We will then block your pass. If your pass is stolen, and if you can provide evidence that you reported the theft to the police, we will issue a new pass at no extra cost. If your pass is lost, broken or damaged, we will apply a replacement fee, based on the current price.
Once the pass has been blocked, it can no longer be used. While your pass is blocked, you will have to pay for any parking at the hourly rate applicable to the car park concerned, unless your pass is lost or stolen.
You must activate your subscription between two (2) and thirty (30) days after the date on which you purchased the subscription.
All subscriptions are valid for a fixed period of one (1) year. You can use the pass to leave the car park until the last day of the subscription. After that, you will have to pay an extra amount to cover the extra time not covered by the subscription. The extra amount will be calculated according to our standard charges for parking in our car parks, with no reduction, because the extra time will be calculated from the date on which the subscription comes to an end.
If you do not remove your vehicle from the car park after your subscription comes to an end, we may have it removed, and you will have to pay all the related costs (including any impounding charges).
The subscription is not tacitly renewed after one year.
You can ask to renew your subscription for the same length of time as your initial subscription. You must send us your request at the latest on the last day of your current subscription, and at the earliest thirty (30) days before that date. The price of the new subscription will be the price in force on the first day of the new subscription. Please allow 48 hours for processing of your request.
We reserve the right to terminate your subscription contract if you do not comply with the rules for using our car parks. If we terminate your subscription, the pass will be blocked. We will not refund the amounts already paid.
We also reserve the right to terminate the subscription contract at any time, after sending you notification and applying a two-month notice period. If that happens, we will refund the amount corresponding to the time remaining.
You or one of your beneficiaries may terminate your subscription contract at any time, but only in one of the cases listed below. You need to provide the documents mentioned along with your termination request:
- Job transfer (statement from your employer),
- Theft of your vehicle (copy of the crime reference number you were given when you reported the theft),
- Death of the subscription holder (copy of the death certificate),
- Loss of your job, provided you were employed on a permanent contract and were not on a trial period (proof of registration as a job seeker [with France Travail]),
- The subscription holder has moved their main residence to another town (signed statement and proof of address).
2.2 Access to La Croix du Sud Lounge
You can book a session in La Croix du Sud lounge. Your booking will give you access to the lounge once during the day, at any time of day and during the lounge opening hours (available on our website and on our app), as soon as your order is confirmed.
You can also order this service as a set of five (5) sessions that you can use at any time during a fixed period of one (1) year.
Once you have subscribed to the service, you will receive a QR code by email. You will need to show the code at the reception desk or scan it on the access terminals every time you enter the lounge. One session will be automatically deducted from your total number of sessions every time you enter the lounge. The QR code is valid for one (1) year from when it is issued. Unless you purchase a set of sessions, the QR code is only valid for one person and one session. If you order a set of sessions, you will need to show the QR code for every person entering the lounge (until you have reached the maximum number of sessions). Please note that access is free for children under 6.
You cannot re-enter La Croix du Sud lounge once you have left. If you want to go back in, you will need to book and pay for a new session or use another session if you purchased a set.
If you use our service for accessing La Croix du Sud lounge, you agree to comply with the internal regulations in force in La Croix du Sud lounge. You can consult the current version of those regulations on our website or on our app, and they are also displayed at the entrance to the lounge.
2.3 Fast-Track Service
We offer a “fast-track” service that gives you priority access to the security checkpoint. You can book this service at any time before you go through security. Simply show one of the security officers confirmation of your order.
You can also order this service as a set of five (5) fast-track checks that you can use at any time during a fixed period of one (1) year.
Once you have subscribed to the service, you will receive a QR code by email. You will need to show that QR code every time you go through security. One fast-track check will be automatically deducted from your purchased total every time you go through security. The QR code is valid for one (1) year from when it is issued. Unless you purchase a set, the QR code is only valid for one person and one security check. If you order a set of five, you will need to show the QR code for every person using the fast-track lane until you have reached the maximum number of fast-track checks.
This service gives you priority access to the security checkpoint, so you go through security more quickly than passengers who have not subscribed to the service. For priority passengers (beneficiaries of the “fast-track” service, people with a disability and people with reduced mobility), the order in which people go through security will depend on the order in which they arrive at the security checkpoint.
2.4 Third-Party Services
You may find links to services offered by third-party providers on our website and on our app. In that case, we are simply an intermediary. We are not party to any contract you may sign with those third-party providers. Consequently, we cannot be held liable for any matters in connection with that contract. For further information, please consult our legal notice and privacy policy.
