Information
We normally advise our customers to allow themselves 50 minutes to park their car at Airparks and transfer to the airport - longer during the morning and afternoon rush hours. However, there are roadworks on the M1 from junction 10 to junction 13 for the rest of the year, so we advise you to leave extra time for your journey to the airport too. More detailed information is available on the Highways Agency website. Unfortunately, Airparks is unable to carry bikes, surfboards, canoes and other large objects which do not fit onto the luggage racks on its buses. If you are bringing large items with you, we suggest you drop them off at the airport before parking your car. Remember to check beforehand that your airline will be able to carry the items. If you stay in the car park for more days than you booked, you will be charged for the extra days at the car park's standard daily rate. If you stay for fewer days than you booked, you will not be given a refund. Airparks Return Greet is unable to accept any vehicle which carries a taxi license plate as these vechiles can only be driven by the holders of the license.
