subject: All About Meet And Greet Parking Gatwick Airport, Hassle Free And Economical [print this page] Gatwick Airport, about 28 miles to the south of central London, is the second largest airport serving the UK's capital city. London, Gatwick has two terminals and many international and domestic airlines operate from here. There are several Meet and Greet Parking Gatwick Airport operators providing services for travelers. These can provide a stress-free way to arrive at the airport. This short article surveys some of the car parking, and meet and greet services, provided by different operators.
London Gatwick Airport is just south of England's capital city. It can be easily reached by road, being connected to the M23 motorway, which runs south from London to Brighton, and to the M25, London's orbital motorway.
Gatwick, which is London's second airport (after Heathrow), is the base for several scheduled operators, including British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, Aer Lingus. Other airlines, including no-frills airlines EasyJet and Flybe, and charter companies Monarch, Thomas Cook Airlines, and Thomson Airways also operate out of Gatwick. The airport has two terminals, North and South, which are connected by a "monorail" service.
Travelers arriving at Gatwick by car can use the airport's own car parks, which are operated by BAA Gatwick: there are both long-stay and short-stay car parks, or they can choose one of the various off-site car parks. Off-site operators include ADS Parking Gatwick, Airparks, Ace and Meteor. There are online comparison sites on the net allowing price comparison between the various car parking options.
Travelers will often find it more economical, if they pre-book their car parking, instead of paying when they arrive. Savings of up to 60% can be made by pre-booking. Another advantage when you pre-book is that your car parking space is reserved for you.
Meet and Greet services offer a stress-free way to arrive at the airport. They can be especially helpful for large traveling parties, or for people who may need extra assistance, perhaps because of disability.
If the traveler chooses a meet and greet option from a company such as Airparks, then the operator will make arrangements for a driver to meet the traveler outside the terminal when they arrive to catch their flight. The driver will then take the passenger's car to the secure off-site Airparks parking amenity. This is convenient for the customer in two ways. Firstly he doesn't have to find the car park and find a space in it, and secondly if he doesn't have to travel with his luggage on the courtesy bus from the car park to the terminal.
The driver will also arrange to meet the passenger after their return flight, and when the car will be handed back to the passenger. Contact Airparks if return travel plans change for any reason.
