Information
We recommend that you give yourself 40 minutes to drop your car off and transfer to the airport. Bikes, surfboards, canoes and other large objects that won't fit into the luggage racks can't be carried on Airparks buses. If you are bringing large items with you, we suggest you drop them off at the airport before you park your car. Remember to check with your airline that you will be able to take them on the plane. If you park for more days than you booked, the car park will charge you for the extra days at its normal rate. If you stay for fewer days than you booked, unfortunately we can't give you a refund. If there is an event at Donington Park, we recommend that you allow extra time for your journey to Airparks, because the traffic is likely to be heavier.
