    Are you close enough that 2 cabs would be same/less cost ?
    There are 10 types of people in the world, those that understand binary and those that don't

    In many cases it helps if you say where you are - someone with local knowledge might be able to give local specifics rather than general advice

    What dates?

    Have you tried holiday extras or aph? Also found this link which quotes between £30-£35 for a week in August.

    Hope this helps

    Prices can vary but holiday extras quite often come out cheapest for the on-airport long stay car park (I am using them to park for 4 days at Newcastle next week for £19 - couldn't find cheaper). The airport's own online booking at https://www.newcastleairport.com tends to be cheaper than just turning up but more expensive than other sites.

    Bear in mind callerton parkway and bellair are off airport so it takes extra time to get to the terminal and you usually have to phone for a courtesy bus to collect you when you return so i tend to pay the couple of pounds extra to use the long stay.

    There are a few price comparison sites around for parking which might be worth a look such as https://www.airportparkingdog.co.uk and https://www.best-airport-parking-deals.co.uk - for a week in August you are looking at around £30 for Bellair/Callerton and £38 for the long stay.

    Unfortunately since Meteor took over the car park from Central Parking System and the long stay car park was extended prices have risen dramatically, and you even have to pay £1 to drop-off or pick up since they ended the first 15 minutes free in the drop-off car park a few months ago!

    Book through https://www.bcponline.co.uk and use discount code 'bn221'.

    You will get 15% off Newcastle Airport on-airport carpark for about £34 using that. We got 8 days for £34.36.

    I booked my airport parking at Edinburgh for two weeks next summer using this code and I got it for £33.15!

    I have used BCP in the past but have had problems getting rates for Newcastle recently, keep getting message "Sorry, service unavailable
    No Rates Returned" when all other sites are showing prices and availiability. Wish it would work for me as bn221 code can work out a fair bit cheaper.

    You could drive into ponteland and park your car there, and get a taxi from there and back for under a tenner.
