Airports Ramp Up Prices In Time For Easter Break

The Uk airports have been slammed for steep price rises in airport parking just in time for the Easter break a recent survey carried out by Travelsupermarket.com found that prices had seen a massive 127% rise compared to 2010.

The short stay car park at Heathrow has been singled out in the report as an 8 day stay will set you back £394.40. The best way to avoid this massive charge is park in the Long Stay car park which will set you back a more modest £133.60

An even better way of saving money is by using a comparison site, just by booking in advance will save you lot of money and there are off airport sites that can be even cheaper.

If your planning a trip over the Easter break try and get flights from Blackpool airport as their parking is free!!!!!

Off airport car parks take the hassle away from driving to the airport

One of the main things about going on holiday, is the thought of going away, as you sit at the office and let your mind roam to the thought of the breaking sea on a beautiful white sandy beach, a meal of anti-pasta accompanied by chilled wine. This relaxing image is being tarnished with the notion of commuting to Manchester airport along the M62 for instance. On a daily basis this motorway is primed to delays from carriageways being shut due to accidents or repairs leaving you the to wait for hours in the jam or as many of other drivers, seek an different route putting miles on your journey.


Upon arriving at the airport the next thing you have to do is to find the correct car park for your terminal. You may think this would be easy but with lots of like minded people struggling to get in the proper lane or managing a roundabout even more so if it is dark can be a traumatic experience. Looking at a map of the airport on paper is completely different at ground level. To avoid this I now always use the services of an off airport car park, airport parking Manchester for example, whereby I can simply arrive up at their car park and they will take me directly to the terminal and it costs less. But the best way to steer clear from all this aggravation if you have the time is to travel down the day before and book a Luton airport hotel parking package for instance. This certainly tends to get the holiday off to a more relaxed mood.


As soon as I am inside the airport, I always feel more content, with only the queue for tickets and security standing between you and your sun kissed dream of relaxing days by the beach and cold beer.
