Plane Parking Refundable

Date of use. 20/12/2020, entered. 27/12/2020, exited. Entering the car park was not an issue. However on my return, I put ticket in exit gate and I was asked to pay £240. I contacted member of staff. Reason this happened is I had changed my car registration details 2 weeks before departing, I recieved an email confirming this, however, the system was not updated and it didn't recognise my new registration. Original registration was, A96 MEL, Changed reg was S6GDS Quite a shock to come back to face this frightening charge. I will have to consider carefully if I were to use this service again. The member of staff was very polite and understanding.

Booked 5 days in Long Term which provided free upgrade to Mid Term. On arrival at Mid Term booking wasn’t recognised by system and had to push button for assistance. Similarly on departure on inserting ticket it requested full price payment and I had to use the assistance button again - which took ages.

FastPark Non-Flex

Booked Fast Park Edinburgh in February via FHR but was not told it was closed due to COVID-19 & lack of travellers. Had to speak to someone at the barrier intercom as nobody at office. Once I gave booking reference got out of car park without paying £500+ parking fee displayed on screen. As this booking was non flexible could not change return date as I had to change flight 4 times (came back on 5th different flight & 3rd different day). Lesson learnt book flexible parking to change date if necessary especially during COVID-19 restrictions.

All online booking etc very easy. Car park a good 10 minutes walk as there are a lot of building work diversions. I think perhaps 10 minute walk should be included in the description.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer a refund on bookings that aren’t used due to a vehicle breaking down.

Is there a discount for booking for more than one car? 

There isn't a discount for booking more than one car but if you have a discount code or promotional email offer then this will be applied to all the cars on the booking.

If you're looking to make a booking to park more than one car at Gatwick then you can easily do this on our website.

Can I cancel my Edinburgh Airport parking once I've booked?

Flexible bookings can be cancelled any time after the booking is made, up to 24 hours before your booking arrival date.

There is a £10 cancellation fee, with the balance refunded. unless you took out the waiver fee when booking.

What is Meet and Greet parking at Edinburgh? 

When you book a Meet and Greet Car Park, you will be met at the airport by a fully insured Chauffeur, who drives your car to a secured storage site.

On return, your vehicle is bought back to the terminal, so you can just drive straight home.

How far in advance do I need to booking parking at Edinburgh? 

You can book Edinburgh Airport Parking with us right up to your day of travel.

We'd always recommend booking as early as possible however to get the best prices and guarantee your space at your chosen car park, as some car parks can close out to arrivals days before in peak holiday periods.  

Prices are set by the car parks and change with the availability so as the car parks fill up the prices increase.

What is the Park Mark® Award?

Why is a weeks’ parking calculated as 8 days? 

Most car parks charge per day or part thereof, i.e. they count the day you enter the car park and the day you leave. That means a 7 night trip is 8 calculated as days parking and a 14 night trip will be 15 days parking.

How early do I need to drop off my car to get to the Airport on time? 

This will depend on the car park you book, but we recommend that you arrive to drop the car off at least minutes 30 minutes prior to your earliest check-in/bag drop time. 

Can I turn up at any time for my meet and greet? 

The 'parking from' time on your confirmation is the time slot the car park has allocated you, so it’s important to let us know if you need to change the time, if its more than 24 hours before you are due to park. If it is less than 24 hours before your meet is due, you should call the chauffeurs using the number on your confirmation voucher.

How can I change my booking?
