Short Stay Car Park 1 SuperSaver

The rate was excellent but the hassle getting in and parked and then validating a prepaid ticket at the end of a delayed flight made the experience much less than enjoyable. At both entrance and exit we had to visit customer service (both times - new assistant) and took quite a time sorting out what, in the past, has been completely hassle free. I/we choose to use the short stay car park over other options and this was our first negative experience. I would look to book short stay 2 rather than short stay 1 in the future.
