I too am wondering if anyone has any feedback on Luton Airport Parkway - can a week's parking still be paid for on arrival, for about £23?
How frequent are the shuttle buses in the afternoon, I have seen various answer ranging from every 5 mins to every afternoon.

Thanks!

Yes, the parking can be paid for on arrival. This page:

http://www.firstcapitalconnect.co.uk/Main.php?sEvent=StationInfo&crs_code=LTN

suggests that the place is manned 24x7 so there should be someone to speak to rather than a machine but if you want to play it safe then you could order the parking in advance by calling the number here:

https://fcc.zonepark.co.uk/SeasonTicketDetail.aspx?Q=1&ID=21

From the first webpage above it states that:

A shuttle bus service operates to and from Luton Airport Parkway Station,every 10 minutes between 05.00 and 2400 and connects with all trains overnight. This is normally just a 5 minute trip to/from the airport terminal building.

From what I have seen, Luton Parkway is massive so there should be no problems getting a space. I will be using it myself when I fly out of Luton in June as its much cheaper than the on airport parking and I refuse to hand my keys to anyone to park it.

Excellent tip Thanks! It appears to be £4.90 per day, so for 7 days that's £34. Half that of the long stay car park at the airport!

1 weeks parking is actually around £20 - £25 so its even cheaper than you think

:beer:

So it has a cheaper rate for a week than per day? Are there any rate tables listed, couldn't find them on the above links.

Have you used this car-park? Is it as secure as the airport car parks (all very well a brochure saying it is!), is there any vandalism etc, which station car parks often suffer from?

KTF

Most railway station parking that I have used are priced along the lines of 7 days parking for the price of 4/5 days. The £20ish price was mentioned in this thread but if you call the number for the weekly scratch cards on the First website they tell you the cost.

I havent used the car park at Luton Parkway myself but if its manned 24*7 and has a constant flow of people going to and from then its probably pretty secure.


Its massive as well http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&layer=&ie=UTF8&z=16&om=1&iwloc=addr&q=LU1%203JW

so I dont think there will be a problem finding a space.

Does anyone have any suggestions for Bournemouth airport parking? None of the agents seem to do it. The airport site link is quoting £72 for 15nights in June.

We are thinking of going to Dublin for the day on monday 16th June using the free ryanair flights. Flying out at 6.30am and land back at East Midlands 10pm.
Cheapest car parking i can find is BCP long stay number 7 carpark at £14.96 for the day.
Is this about right or am i looking in the wrong place?

Thanks
