Airport parking explained
Is airport parking right for you?
Airport parking is one option to ensure your vehicle is safe while you're away and in a convenient
location when you return. However, long-stay parking at airports can be expensive so a number of
companies now offer cheaper airport parking options both on- and off-site; as well as additional
services including meet and greet, park and ride and even airport hotel options.
Types of airport parking
There are many types of airport parking to consider including:
-
On-site parking: These car parks are typically adjacent to airports and divided into long-
and short-term parking options
-
Short-term is usually charged per day and can be expensive but is usually within walking
distance of the airport. Long-term is usually cheaper but further away and there may be
a short bus ride to the terminal
-
Off-site parking: Offered by a number of specialist airport parking companies, this is
often much cheaper than on-site airport parking with a bus service usually provided to
reach the correct terminal
-
Meet-and-greet: With a meet-and-greet airport parking option you drive your car to an
airport drop-off point and a representative from the parking company will then drive
the car away, park it for you, return it to you when you land
Choosing the right airport parking company
When determining which airport parking option is right for you, consider the length of your stay,
the cost and also the services on offer. For example will you have to park and ride or does
the company offer a meet and greet service? Is the car park secure? Also, you may wish to
consider tying your airport parking with an airport hotel deal if you plan to stay overnight.
What are the benefits of airport parking?
Airport parking is all about convenience as it saves you the trouble of arranging a pick-up
and drop-off, and if you compare airport parking prices online you should be able to find
an affordable deal that is much cheaper than parking on-site. It can also remove some
of the hassle of holidaymaking by providing you with peace of mind that your vehicle
will be kept in a secure location and possibly even returned directly to you when you land.
