Sentinel Security Car Park

A very professional organisation. Buses painted in company livery and all staff in matching uniforms. Modern offices with toilets. They look like they mean business! Efficient transfer and pickup. They watch the airport website for flight landings and send the buses to accommodate the number of customers they are expecting. We just missed one bus and thought we would have a long wait, but another bus was waiting behind it and left when full. I would definitely use Sentinel again.
