  • For Birmingham Airport - looks at joining Cloud Nine http://www.cloudninemagazine.co.uk/offers/offers.aspx

    Offers include a discount card for the airport and parking codes.

  • I've started to use JetParks at Manchester Airport it's the nearest off site carpark to all the terminals, about a 2 minute shuttle ride, and i've had a days parking there for as little as £2.99
  • Gatwick south airport parking Sept 26th to October 9th cheapest so far £83 using the sainsburys link cheers....
  • There are still some great deals to be obtained from using a Comparison web site.

    Firstly, you should always check if they are charging a commission for providing the service, most providers are only re packaging what is on offer from a mainstream supplier, and will be paid for their sales, so no extra charges should be levied on you, the customer.

    Secondly, are the comparison site biased towards a particular company (if they are owned or a subsidiary of a parking site owner, do they promote their own products over what could be a better product in order to make sales, a true independent comparison web site, will show all prices good or bad.

    Thirdly, check how many different companies are being checked, and if any of these are actual car park owners. For instance, Airparks and APH actually own their own car parks,, so these may have more of an insight into the parking business, whereas some of the smaller websites, only re-brand information and therefore have no physical links to the sites, and may therefore be less informed.

    I run a small comparison company, and we ensure that we show as many parking items as we possibly can. We include 8 suppliers many of which are site owners and we show parking based on price, however, we also allow the customer to filter dependent on their requirements, and display meet and greet, on site and off site options so people can choose what is right for them, not just the cheapest. Also many people do not realise that in many occaisons, upgrading to a hotel with parking can actually only cost £10 more dependent on the time of year and the hotel in question.

    My site is in my signature but you may like to try these as well which don't have all the fancy filtering but a quick and to the point. All of these sites also show a hotel option in text at the top of the search results and graphically at the bottom of the results for information. This is where you can actually be surprised. My main site is getting a bit dated and is due an overhaul in the near future, but take a look, there's no charge, lol

    You can't! I tried this last time and it's missing from both purple parking and BCP.

    Latest codes still working for me are E61W for purple parking - just emailed through today, in case previous one has expired.

    Cheapest one I've used on here for a couple of years, but in case people think it's too old to use is either "egg" on the BCP site, which is http://www.parkbcp.co.uk/

    You can also use "BP850" on there.

    Others I've used are "TIPO" again on Purple Parking or "dlg" on Purple Parking.
