offered a free upgrade to another car park at Manchester airport

Hi. I have booked carpark at jetpark 1 at Manchester airport (booked in March and got online discount of 10%) for 8 days and flying out from Terminal 1 very early in the morning. Today I received an invitation to a free upgrade to Terminal 1 /3 Long Stay car park. I am wondering whether or not to accept an offer. I dont know which car park is better and more convenient if flying from Terminal 1. Please could you advise. I would really apreciate it.

    You can look at the airport website. http://www.manchesterairport.co.uk/manweb.nsf/Content/longstayparking
    You will still need a bus to get from the long stay car park, but the journey will be shorter.

    Thank you for your reply. I dont really want to go through hussle if not so much difference and I still need to take a bus. However, walking is not a option if you are travelling on your own with a heavy luggage and it will be 5 in the morning...
    I just want to hear from people who used both car parks and can advise me on which one is better.

    I have used Jetpark 1 many many times.

    It really is easy.

    They have the shuttle bus running very frequently.

    Not sure how Manchester Airport have ' upgraded ' you to their car park when Jetparks is a private and seperate company from them I believe.

    If it was me, I would stick with Jetparks personally.
