Meet your driver
Drive right up to the terminal and meet our fully insured, mature driver. You exchange paperwork, your car is taken to our secure parking facility and you make your way straight into check-in. Don't worry about any delays — our drivers stay in constant contact with you, and you are given a dedicated contact number to use while you travel.

On your return into the UK, simply call your dedicated contact number as you make your way through to baggage claim. You will be met by your valet parking driver in the same place you dropped your vehicle off, so you can go straight home without any hold-ups.
4. Compare Like-for-Like
If you are considering valet parking with another supplier who may be a little cheaper, please take a moment to consider whether the cost is actually like-for-like:
- Do they have their own offices based locally to the airport?
- Do they have a landline number to contact in case of an emergency?
- Do they provide a fully insured service, or do they expect your insurance to cover your car being driven to the car park and back?
- Are they an authorised parking supplier?
- Are their parking facilities safe and secure?
Beware of offices in homes, cars driven by friends and family, and suppliers only available on mobiles with no certifiable contact details. You may think we are exaggerating, but sadly we are not!
5. Airport Parking Options
At most UK airports the options available for airport parking are:
Booking parking as part of a park and stay package can offer a great discount compared with booking hotel accommodation and parking separately.
Whatever option you choose, book early and book online — this is the best value for money compared with turning up on the day and paying the gate price. If you have any questions, don't be afraid to pick up the phone and speak to the company before booking. If you require a Meet and Greet service or a quick quote, please call us for an instant price check.
