    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    The railway station car park is about £21 for 7 days. Cheapest I believe and a free shuttle just outside to the airport in 5-10 mins.
    ummm...

    If you are travelling from Wellingborough or Bedford then the train is going to be cheaper than parking, at any rate for a longer stay. There is a free shuttle bus from the station to the terminal.

    Depends also how much you are going to spend getting to the starting station and whether either leg is at unsocial hours.

    Mid Mainline
    Kettering to Luton £14 single
    Kettering to London (which is further) £7 single

    Same coming back,yet another case of price "jiggling".

    I suppose you could chance it with a London ticket and get off at Luton but this would break their "advance ticket rules" and if caught made to pay the full fare.

    A lot of people park in one of the streets near Harpenden station - low crime area with plenty of on street parking. It's only 5 mins to Luton Airport Parkway from there, and a 10 minute hop on the free shuttle to the airport

    Is this Lower Harpender rd ?
    There is such a street near Gatwick - Povey Cross rd.

    THANK YOU that sounds good to me
  • Try one of the streets off Station road, if nothing is available on Bowers Parade
