Getting the right parking at Manchester Airport is as important as getting the right flight from Manchester. You can pay more than you need to and be inconvenienced more than necessary. There are ways to get the best parking prices at the airport and know that your car is secure.
It is always best to pre-book your car parking space at one of the car parking areas near the airport, not only will this save you money but it will also give you peace of mind.
There are quite a few car park companies that operate around Manchester Airport and in most cases provide a free shuttle service to and from the terminal buildings. Choosing the best car park could depend on the direction you are travelling from. There is no point in driving past a car park to drive further to get to another one.
The most convenient option is to book a meet and greet service with your parking. This will mean you and your party will be met and taken to the car park without having to wait on anyone else. As soon as you arrive at the front of the terminal you will be taken to the car park to collect your car. This service costs a bit more but for some people it is more than worth it.
Car Parks can provide car washing and a valet service whilst you are away. In some cases you can arrange for your car to have a service as well or a repair if it needs one. Simply phone ahead and reserve whatever service you require
There are of course car parks next to the airport and these can also be booked online prior to your arrival. This also makes sure you get a parking space during busy periods but also the best prices. You can usually get to the terminal within a few minutes and the journey is all under cover so you will not get wet if it is raining.
Generally you will be asked to leave your car keys so that they can move your car out of the way whilst you are away and have it ready for you upon your return. If you are worried about leaving your house keys don’t, simply give them your car key.
Planning ahead will enable you to get the best prices and plan the best route to the car park of your choice. Don’t forget to allow sufficient time to get to the car park and to allow enough time for the shuttle bus to take you to Manchester airport in time for your flight. If you are going to get your car a valet get it booked in advance as well.
