Jet Parks 2
The directions we received said the car park was called Shuttle Economy 2 when it is in fact Jet Parks 2. It would be helpful if the directions are updated. Everything else was fine.

Jet Parks 2
All went very smoothly except on our return we had to wait a good 15 minutes before the bus turned up and then it stopped at the long stay car parks as well as the Jet Park car parks. Even at the barrier when we had to press the button to be let out because the number plate recognition camera couldn't read our number plate because of its position the member of staff was friendly helpful and prompt.

About a 10 min walk to the main terminal building. Car park easy to find despite more warnings signs about stopping as East Midlands Airport only concerned about getting as much money out of motorist as possible. In the wet the path to the building does flood.
