Traffic, suitcases, and crowding are some of the things that make airline travel such a pain.Early morning flights may save you money sometimes, but it can be a pain to get there in time for check-in. So I thought it would be nice to stay at an airport hotel the night before my trip, so I won’t have to travel so far to get there in the morning?

What about all your bags? You’re off to a vacation for a week and your spouse has packed everything but the kitchen sink for your stay. Airport parking and worrying about getting to and from your car with all that luggage can really suck and ruin the beginning of your vacation.  

By taking the stress out of air travel, I arrive in a better mood. Using a Park Stay Fly Hotel w/FREE shuttle service, I get assistance with my luggage, and I can travel without the stress of wondering if where my car is parked is safe.

It’s nice to be close to the airport the night before my flight. Usually,hotel accommodations are available near the airport for a 1 night stay w/7 days parking, which allows me to reserve a room near the airport for the price of parking alone. With a park sleep and fly package, I just check-in usually before my flight, unless my return flight is at some weird hour in the morning, then I stay the night after my flight.

I like to take the stress out traveling and leave the details to the pros.  You can check the parking fees ahead of time and see the deals available. It couldn’t be simpler. No more waiting for someone to pick you up while you drag your luggage around waiting for your ride.

So I wound up staying the night at the The Comfort Inn Philadelphia Airport, they had a nice parking lot, and they got me to the airport on time. The driver was friendly and courteous, and helped me with my bags, and I got a good night’s sleep to boot. :)

When you arrive at Heathrow airport, already late for your flight check in, the last thing you will want to do is hunt for your parking space and then take a transfer bus back to the terminal.  By far the best option is to book your Heathrow parking space in advance and take advantage of the meet and greet services available at Heathrow airport.

Meet and greet parking is an exceptionally useful service that many people simply don’t know about. This excellent service will save you the headache or lugging your baggage from the car park all the way to the airport terminal. You don’t have to wait for a transfer bus from some far flung Heathrow car park. Instead you will be met at the terminal by professional chauffeur who will take complete responsibility for parking your car, while you check in and board your flight.

Meet and greet can be particularly useful if you are on a travelling on a tight schedule with very little time to spare. If you take advantage of the online check-in facilities you can shave some valuable minutes off of the time it takes for you to board your flight.

Meet and greet is also immensely useful to those travelling with small children or disabled travellers. Just pre-book online, let the car parking operator know when you will be arriving and then hand over your keys to the chauffeur at the airport terminal. No fuss, no bother and no screaming children on an airport transfer shuttle bus.

Heathrow airport provides meet and greet or valet parking at all five of the busy Heathrow terminals. If you have never used the sevice before you will be pleased to find that it doesn’t cost an awful lot more than regular parking at Heathrow airport. Just remember to book in advance for some great savings.

When you return from your trip all you need do is call ahead and you will be met at the designated terminal location. Your car will have been retrieved from the car park and all you need do is sign the acceptance form and you’re on your way home. No fuss, no bother, very simple.

It can be very confusing to both find and book car parking space at the UK’s second busiest airport. Where can you go to get accurate parking price information? Do you need long term or short term parking? What are the key differences between the various car parks? These are the questions that I hope to answer in this brief article.

You may not be aware that Gatwick is the UK’s second busiest airport and the sixth busiest in the world. With over 32 million passengers using the airport each year it’s not surprising to find that the airport provides extensive car parking facilities.

You will probably want to use short term parking when dropping people off and picking them up from the airport. This is also adequate for most short duration journeys. Gatwick provides short term parking in multi-storey car parks at both the North and South terminals.

You are warned not to leave your car unattended, even for a short time, in the forecourt areas outside the airport passenger terminals. If you do your car will be removed by the police and you will have to pay a release fee to get it back. If you need to leave your car unattended you should always park in the car parks provided.

If your trip lasts more than just a few days then Gatwick long term parking is what you will need. There are so many options to consider when booking airport parking at Gatwick it can be a little confusing.

It is worthwhile looking at the details of the various long stay car parks servicing Gatwick airport to make certain they meet your requirements. Most airport car parks provide excellent security facilities including fencing, security cameras and regular patrols. Some outstanding car parks have the ‘park mark’ safer parking award. All provide a free transfer bus service between the car park and the airport terminals.

If you don’t what the hassle of bus transfers and you want to save a little time then meet and greet parking is for you. This basically means that all you need do is drive directly to the appropriate terminal forecourt where you will be met by professional chauffeur. They will take your car and park it on your behalf in one of the secure long term car parks. When you return from your trip your car will have been retrieved from the car park to be ready and waiting for you as soon as you have cleared customs.

The benefits provided by meet and greet parking are that you don’t need to arrive at the airport very early as you don’t need to take a transfer bus from the car park and you will be on your way home as soon as you leave the airport terminal. You may also like to take advantage of the valet service to have your car cleaned while you are away.

To get the best Gatwick parking rate it is essential that you book in advance. Booking your car parking space well in advance will usually give you the best deal. The best way to check on prices and availability is to use an online price checking and comparison facility such as the one provided by Gosimply.com. This excellent website not only provides accurate and up to date parking prices and availability information it also provides honest and impartial customer reviews of various airport facilities, including airport hotels.
