Airport Parking

Post by Kev.S » Sat Jan 13, 2007 5:22 pm

Can any recommend any of the secure parking companies for Manchester Airport. I don't like the idea of the ones who drive your car in or out of the parking areas, but don't object to one were I have to leave my keys.

I always park in the long stay. Never had any issues.

I'd never leave my keys with people.

Think I used APH when I left my car there over a weekend, rather than parking in the city centre.

They didn't want my keys, and no problems.

Although no specific experience of Manchester, I always opt for the the "park it yourself" carparks and take my keys with me. When I had crap cars I didn't mind the places where you park up and they drive the car to a bay, but I no longer trust them. Too many horror stories in the newspapers for me.

Very often, hotels do a deal where you can stay the night before (great if you've got an early morning flight) and then you can park your car in their car park for 7/10/14 days for a reasnable amount. This is my preferred option if using anything other than my local airports (Luton & Stansted) just in case there are traffic problems (eg M25 or M23). Depends on how far from your chosen airport you live though!!

You can always call them to understand what happens in the car park.
