    We are going by road to Heathrow (using tesco clubcard vouchers for parking). I think and MPV taxi from Newark to Manattan will be best for us. I am rapidly coming to conclusion that use of the airport lounge will not be the best use of our money (£72 for use of Holideck at terminal 4 for the 5 of us could get 10% cashback trhough quidco so would be £65). We like the idea of staying overnight at Heathrow before departure but need to weigh up cost v stress factor!!
    Thanks for you input

    If you haven't yet paid for your parking it may be worth looking at hotels that include parking whilst you are away. They usually work out much cheaper than booking them separately. You can then spend your tesco couchers on something else! Try looking at https://www.bluedogparking.co.uk

    Have a wonderful time in New York!!

    couchers!!! I wish I could type!
  • For parking at Heathrow, have a look at https://www.purpleparking.com and enter the code 'TIPO' into the box. Many people (myself included) have found that the price is halved :wink:

    If you're signed up with Quidco, you can get 10% cashback too.

    Hi,
    I am sure that they sort out all forms of transport , they told me that a shuttle bus was the cheapest and easiest.
    (Newark into manhattan transfer)

    Look at my post #5
  • we always book online with carmel cars. They ask you to ring when you are through customs " free call" and within 5/10 mins they are there and show your name in the front of the vehicle. They have charged me $45 dollars plus toll charges about $4 for two of us. they do minivans too.

    The best work is the cheapest as the quality remains long after the price is forgotten
