Secure Airparks Electric Charge

It is early days for most EC owners so many every day experiences are new to us. Parking for a week or more? Do I need to keep the vehicle plugged in or will the batteries be flat? I chose the secure parking at Edinburgh Airport. Nothing could be simpler. Pre-book, the NPR systems allows you into the space, take your own mode 3 cable (the blue one), plug in and forget. A shuttle comes around in minutes and drops you at the door of the terminal. Repeat on return. Simple, fast, good value.

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.

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.

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?
