Car Parking for the Confused

Advantages: easier than a taxi/bus
Disadvantages: could work out expensive, handing over your car keys to strangers

...recently flew to Scotland from Gatwick airport, living where I do I didn't want to be trying to get a train as getting to a train station is tricky and I don't want to be using taxis given how much it can cost to travel 80 miles even when one is prebooked. So knowing I was flying from Gatwick I used the Gatwick airport website to compare the prices of the nearby carparks, it came up with Park Plus as the cheapest by quite a considerable amount for ...
...me £18.60. Arriving at Gatwick airport you need to follow the directions to the South Terminal and the Long Term Parking, from here you enter the car parks, there are several but Park Plus was one of the first on the left and is clearly signposted. To enter the initial courtyard you are stopped at a barrier, they have number plate recognition so as long as it was correctly input on the booking page you will be let through, then directed to a lane. ...

Airparks Car Parks Gatwick Airport

Advantages: Affordable and Reliable
Disadvantages: Once got date of return wrong, but were resolved this quickly

...term car parking facility at Gatwick Airport. I have used them on 3 different occasions when going on holiday. I usually prefer to use public transport to and from the airport but when the flight returns quite late I like to drive back. To book visit their website (www.airparks.co.uk), select the dates that you are looking to park for and they will quote a price. For 6 days this is in the region of £27 or £4.50 per day, so is not too bad. They are ...
...so you can get around 10% of this back. You can pay by credit or debit card (credit cards have a £1.50 fee) and once payment has gone through you are sent a confirmation email with a reference number that you have to take with you when you go. The car park itself is located just off the A23, around 4 miles from the North terminal. To get there come off the M23 at J10 and follow signs for Crawley, then the A23 for Redhill and then for Lowfield Heath. ...

Gatwick Airport Car Parking: Review of Ace Parking

Advantages: Chauffer is waiting for you felt 1st class
Disadvantages: None

...Ace Meet and Greet at Gatwick Airport, on finding a site that advertised Ace I entered my details but on the results I couldn't see Ace any where. I decided to find them directly There website is called www.ace-parking-gatwick.co.uk and on talking to a very friendly lady, she informed me that the large websites charge a big commission to them to give them bookings. They have decided to let the customers come direct and get a better deal. I personally ...

Meteor meet and greet Gatwick

Advantages: Punctual and ease of use.
Disadvantages: Refusal to accept responsibility of damage caused, poor policies on recording vehicle condition.

After using Meteor meet and greet parking services at Gatwick, I must say that I will not use, or recommend them again. All went smoothly until my car was returned to me with a large scrape on the rear bumper. The damage was pointed out to the driver straight away but following a few e-mails and phone calls this company refuses to accept responsibility for this damage, and I now have to go through a solicitor to get the car repaired. Their policy ...

Ace Meet and Greet and that is slower then publice transport!!

Advantages: It was meant to be a greet and meet so no waiting and quick service
Disadvantages: n/a

I would never recommend Ace Greet and Meet to anyone and i would never use it either. They were late both ways (25 minutes on departure) and on return we waited for over an hour and nobody had the courtesy to inform us of delays and when we called they said the car was on it\'s way. 20 minutes later still our car had not arrived, so we called again and we were told they had 'lost' our car and could not find it. Nobody had the courtesy to call us ...

APH parking for Gatwick Airport

Advantages: Great value and convenience
Disadvantages: none

...best way to get to Gatwick from Southampton. The cheapest quote we could get for a return taxi was around £90. Due to the times of our flights it was difficult to arrange a lift with either family or friends and after checking various other option including trains and national express we found a website for off-airport parking at APH parking, Copthorne. We got an online quote which was £37.10 plus VAT for 8 days parking. You receive an email to ...
...Upon our return to Gatwick before you go though Customs you are asked to call a freephone number on the instruction card given to you before you departed. This then allows them the time to ensure that you car is ready for you when you arrive. Again, the return coaches are every 10 minutes. When we arrived our car was ready and we were helped with our luggage. The car park is very secure with cameras at every angle and they are locked in with only ...

APH Gatwick

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Car can get damaged and driven more than anticipated

...from APH car parking at Gatwick airport, (a) the battery was "completely" flat, (b) I found out that it had been driven 6 miles unbeknownst to me, (even though it says on APH terms and conditions 4.5 "at its premises at one of its parking sites" (i.e. they do not mention that their other parking site is a whole 3 miles away, meaning it was driven on the road while I was under the impression that it would be moved within its premises and not being ...
...between Gatwick airport and APH is 10-15 minutes. When we got back from holiday, the transfer took 35 minutes! Lastly there was another gentlement there when I got back to pick up my car whom was exremely dissapointed since his car had a flat tyre when he got back. ...

Ace Meet and Greet - Ace by name, Ace by nature

Advantages: Easy drop off and collection, no transfer buses
Disadvantages: Changed radio channel

On looking for parking at Gatwick for a week in October, I discovered Ace Meet and Greet on the Essential:Travel website. Although this was not the cheapest parking option, the attraction was that we could drop the car off at the airport terminal, and collect it there on our return. The price for the week was £62, around £14 more than the cheapest option, which would have required a 20 minute bus journey at either end. The booking confirmation gave ...
...about 20 minutes from Gatwick (still on the M25 approaching the junction for the M23), and on arrival at the well-described drop off point at the South terminal we were met by a uniformed driver. He checked our confirmation, and also checked the car for any existing damage which was marked on a form, which we then signed. The driver then explained the procedure for our return, and also gave us a business card that will allow us to book direct with ...

Ace Meet & Greet

Advantages: Convenient
Disadvantages: Can't be trusted.

Have now repaired car Ace Meet & Greet Gatwick. Avoid this company if you don't want to risk being ripped off and lied to by a company you give business to. Paid for my car to be looked after by Ace Parking Meet and Greet Service. When I went to collect it their driver drove it right by me and parked way forward in a badly lit area - this was at night. Should have twigged something was wrong. He asked me to sign for it, shiftily shoved the keys ...
...I went and next morning realised why all the cloak and dagger stuff. A massive scrape right down the passenger side of the car. I complained but Ace just referred me to their T's & C's saying I should have checked the car and reported it immediately which I would have done if the driver hadn't shot off so quick. I e-mailed them pics of the damage but they kept referring to their T's & C's in their own unhelpful way. Result - I now have to pay for ...

Quick review of Gatwick Airport Parking

When we park at gatwick we go with Sky Park Secure.If you haven't heard of this company you should defo check them out as they have a lot going for them. They provide a consistently good level of service and are always happy to help you and make sure that you arrive at the airport on time and with the minimum amount of fuss. They offer much better value for money than the long-stay parking at Gatwick airport especially if you are staying for longer periods of time. Recently they have been offering discounts with the code "dis024" so have a look at their site http://www.skyparksecure.com/ ...

Review of Gatwick Airport Parking

Park and fly.....

Advantages: Takes stress out of flying
Disadvantages: Driving yourself to and from the airport

At first,it seems expensive, but when you look at taxi prices, train faresetc, parking your car at the airport really makes sense. But then, I only live in Brighton, which is not far from Gatwick. A really long drive may warrant a taxi after a tiring flight, but then the expense has to be taken into account. Personally, I would recommend resting for at least a couple of hours, unless you can get a really good sleep before leaving, and taking a leisurely ...
...is ok! I left my mother in law the car keys last time we went away, and when we came home after a week, the car had clocked up over 600 miles. She denied it, but I checked her broomstick and it was spotless- it hadnt even been round the block! I found the staff really really friendly at the car park, they do everything they can to help you on your way. The free transfer buses are frequent, and as long as you leave plenty of time for the journey to ...

Compare Gatwick Parking

Advantages: Simple booking and good choice of car parks
Disadvantages: No same day bookings?

...www.simplyparking.co.uk who compare about 20 gatwick airport car parks in a simple one page results table. Each car park is also matched against a main wholesaler, which goes to show you can get the same car park for less depending on who you choose to book with! The other thing i really liked was that there are car park reviews so you can see what other people though of the facility. In my case i choose cophall farm and only paid £30 for a weeks ...
...over £50 for Parking express. I was a bit dubious as i normally park at the airport, but the car park transfers were fine, albeit with a speedy driver, and it was well worth the money with friendly, polite staff and a hassle free experience. Thanks to simplyparking.co.uk for helping me find this car park, and thanks to cophall for your quibble free approach! ...

Mr. Philip Solomon

Advantages: No transfers once at the airport. Car is as near to terminal as possible.
Disadvantages: Annoying if you have to wait 20 mins.

...be collecting or delivering at Gatwick and this can mean more, rather than less stress. Someone may leave at the last minute to allow 30 mins in duty free shop or be tired after a long flight and be let down by the valet. The excuses can vary from the truth to " bad accident down the road". All and all it is really nice to be met before and after hols, with a car to put your bags in immediately you leave the terminal. It's not cheap if over £50.00 ...
