Have used this service previously. Drive up to the barrier, ANPR allows you entry, park up, take photo so you can remember where it is when you return, keys stay with you, hustle bus (every 20 minutes) to terminal. Reverse order on return when ANPR lifts barrier to exit. Effortless & secure.

Easy parking close to airport, only thing i'd say is that instructions need updating as there was no ticket to take at the barrier as the instructions had stated, and no pound needed at the exit barrier. Other than that, no problems

Car park was well signposted and easy to find. It has automatic number plate recognition but unfortunately it didnât recognise ours or the bar code. Spoke to someone over the intercom and they released the barrier and gave us a token for exiting. The shuttle bus runs every 20 minutes and there are 4 stops around the car park. It was very easy to park and catch the shuttle and would book this car park again.

The carpark name is potentially confusing on the basis that is similar to other carpark names at the airport which can lead to difficulties on accessing the correct shuttle bus.

Returned in the early hours of the morning. The barrier would not lift up. The area was poorly lit so couldn't find the help button. No help button in right hand barrier lane. Had to reverse into other lane. Eventually after about 5 minutes, found the help button. Better lighting at the exit would help.

Easy online booking process, and the car park is easy to find. Was very busy when we arrived, and so finding a free space took a while. The walk to the terminal takes around 10 minutes. The only minor issue is the sign-posting for the exit when leaving is not great, and we needed 2 attempts at getting it right
