Mid Stay is about a six or seven minute walk from the airport buildings which is refreshing when the temperature is near freezing. Number plate recognition worked well and there were no problems.

Mid Stay 1
Overall experience was good, easy to find and plenty of spaces. I knew before I went that there was no bus service to the terminal and that it is a fairly short walk. I was lucky that the weather was o k, but I can imagine that it would be a very unpleasant experience if it had been icy or pouring with rain!

Short Stay 3
I really wanted to do a meet & greet arrangement but this was unavailable for whatever reason at the time I booked. I therefore had to muck about shuffling the car from the terminal to the car park because one of our party is wheelchair bound. Maybe the option to have phoned could have been flagged up? The car park itself was OK although more than a little cramped and certainly with the regard to the very front rank in Car Park S3 badly marked. It suggests that there is a turning right at the end but there isn't so necessitating a substantial reverse. Other that the payment process, car park entry & exit was very straightforward, thank you.

Long Stay 1
Booking was changed from long stay 1 to mid stay 3 as EMA closed long stay car parks till the beginning of April but I did not get the email. I phoned FHG and the young lady sent me a copy of the revised booking. I received another email a few days before leaving with instructions on how to get to long stay 1 and I have also received an email for feed back on my EMA long stay 1 . Apart from all emails stating long stay 1 when we arrived at mid stay 3 every thing went without any problems.
