    On their way.

    As previously requested, please send me PMs as I don't always check this thread very regularly. Also, I've recently been told by a couple of people who have used him that he's introduced a £30 minimum fee, this might just be for peak times, I'm not sure. But it may mean that one of the other parking facilities are cheaper for shorter stays.

    We have just used them for 18 days, and the service was fantastic. We were at airport within 25mins of arrival at car park, and on our return, they picked us up within 6 minutes of our phone call to them. I booked via essentialtravel with Topcashback, and got 10% back.

    Hi I am flying out from Luton on 6th October and return on the 17th.

    The cheapest parking I have found is £67 via aph
    THe cheapest meet and greet I have found is £110 via aph

    My flight is at 0600 so, I need a company that operates 24hrs a day.

    Please help - first time i am parking in Luton and it seems quite expensive.

    I used them a couple of years ago, good service, about 20 mins from airport, and easy to find.
  • I love the idea of parking in a nearby residential area, then calling a local taxi, but how long is too long? I am going abroad for 2 weeks in August, and it's going to cost me around £100 for parking near Gatwick, so that would be a lovely bit of spending money if I can save it. Do a lot of people do this? I could imagine angry locals on the watch for this sort of thing, although there's no law against parking in an ordinary street, is there?? Does anybody know how long a car can sit in one spot before being called abandoned?

    What a selfish idea! Would you like a car parked outside your house for 2 weeks?

    My local station put the parking charges up so some drivers started parking in a nearby street all day. That was until they returned to find their cars damaged and tyres let down.
