The airport's own Long Stay car park is just a 5-minute transfer away. Park, keep your keys and catch your flight, secure in the knowledge that your car will be protected by hourly patrols and CCTV while you're away on your well-earned break. When you get back, just get the transfer back to your car and drive off.
Security measures
The car park is fenced and has CCTV, and staff patrol the car park park regularly 24 hours a day.
Upute
Drive up to the entry barrier and wait for the machine to read your number plate - this can take up to a minute. The barrier will open, so you can drive in and park. If nothing happens, press the button marked 'assistance' so you can speak to a member of the team through the intercom. They'll ask you to confirm your details. Don't insert your credit or debit card into the barrier at any point or you will be charged again for your parking, and don't press the ticket button, as this will stop you being able to gain entry.
Once you're through the barrier find a space and keep hold of your keys. From there, just catch the car park's bus to the terminal. It runs every 10 minutes 24 hours a day, takes 5 minutes and is included in the price.
Early or late? The car park offers a grace period of 6 hours at their discretion. Any longer than this and you'll be charged the car park's standard rate of £15 per day, which is subject to change.
Help us go green! There's no need to print out your booking confirmation, just show it on your mobile device.
Most standard cars (without trailers/not commercial vehicles) will be accepted at the car park as long as they fit in a standard-size parking bay (2.4m x 4.8m).
Transfers
Transfers are included in the price and run every 10 minutes, 24 hours a day, and the journey takes five.
