  • I just had an email to say they were accepting my claim, from essential travel: all credit to them for playing fair on this.

    To get this, I just followed the instructions in the thread so won't repeat them here.

    Thanks everyone and thanks MSE.com!

    Essential travel have a price guarantee which seems to be fallible- i.e you can find prices to beat them and hence get free parking.

    Oh and don't forget to go Through Quidco or TCB-The amount tracks-not sure if it gets paid yet though!

    Good luck!

    Update
    Quidco have paid me £7.00 for this claim-so 21 days parking at LHR gave me £6.50 profit ! :D

    We parked at this place last year for 3 weeks when we flew from Manchester airport - 5 minutes away. It was the cheapest I could find and they provided an excellent service.

    Just a quick one if I may.
    When people are putting in times for the carparks, how are they doing it?
    ie. 3 or 4 hrs before dept and then the time they land or what?
    Thanks for any help
    Nice to save.

    We like to get to the airport 2-2.5 hours before departure so put that for the outbound. For the inbound about 45 minutes to an hour depending on the transfer time back to the car park.

    Cheaper than what?

    Why not post on the Cheap Airport Parking: West/SW England Airports Airport hints, tips and local parking thread?
    Might get a better response there.
  • any ideas to reduce parking costs at Bournemouth? They aren't included on any of the comparison sites Martin lists, there is 1 bus from Bournemouth (I live in Poole so useless), no train station for miles and it's £40 return for a taxi to Poole.

    It's such a pain, the airport is so close, yet it's cheaper to get the train 30 miles to Southampton! Only problem is then getting flights which are anywhere near the Ryanair/Thomsonfly prices at Bournemouth.

    It's something like £8.50 a day to park at Bournemouth and we are going for 6 nights in October. It comes out at £37.50 parking with a discount booking directly with the airport website.
