Airport Parking Tips & Information

Know who you are parking with

There are many companies offering airport parking deals and when we decided to create our low cost airport parking and hotel website we wanted to make sure you would be parking with one of the most established and professional companies operating in this market. We had to choose Holiday Extras® who handle over 1 million bookings every year and have been in business for over 25 years. Holiday Extras® are in the Times top 100 companies to work for and have an award winning call centre and customer relations team based in Kent.

Airport Parking & Hotels introduces you to Holiday Extras® for exactly the same price as booking directly with them and therefore you do not pay any more for airport parking or airport hotel stay as we receive a small introductory commission. Your booking is made directly with Holiday Extras® low cost and secure booking engine database, your airport confirmation comes directly from Holiday Extras® and you can call their customer advisors any time night or day who will answer any of your questions about your booking.

A reassuring statistic in any ones book to let you know that you are dealing with a customer focussed company.

Cancellation of booking waiver

Unlike most other airport parking companies we were very impressed with the Cancellation Protection policy which offers full money back in the unlikely event of you having to cancel your booking this extra service only costs an additional .99p and provided you cancel your booking in accordance with the cancellation guidelines you will receive all of your money back without the deduction of any charges. Make sure you select this additional option when you are booking online under ‘Cancellation Protection’.

When to Book

Prices can change daily, yes that’s right the parking prices and hotel deals can change depending upon accommodation levels, road disruption and other factors which is why our supplier regularity checks prices daily to make sure they are offering the best deals. The best time to book is as early as possible as prices like airline tickets also change with seasonal variations and capacity issues. Don’t wait until a few days before your summer holiday to book your airport parking or hotel package as it will be seasonally higher by as much as 25%. Best time is to book it now to guarantee your best price and place.

What’s Important about Offsite Parking

You will save money on your parking by opting for an off site parking location instead of adjacent to the terminal. What’s important to know is how far away it is and how often the shuttle bus service runs.

Hotel & Parking Deals Can Be Cheaper

You should always compare the cost of parking on its own and combined with an over night hotel stay as amazingly at certain times of the year it can in fact be cheaper to take a hotel and parking package than a parking on its own deal by up to as much as £20 cheaper. Yes that’s right, not only do you save money you get a hotel overnight stay included. You can do this online and you might be surprised by the results so why not try a hotel parking package deal to see how little it costs to stay over night and in some cases actually save you money.

Customer Feedback

Upon your return it’s possible to leave feedback as Holiday Extras® customer service team will send you an email to ask for any comments.

How to Save Money

If you want to save money on your airport parking – Never turn up on the day without pre booking your airport parking. Airport car parks are owned by a variety of companies such as NCP and the BAA themselves and they charge a higher tariff for payment on the day which can be as much as 60% more than internet prices. So never leave your home without pre-booking your airport parking which can even be done on the same day if you have to.
