Meet and Greet

Our customers love Meet and Greet - it's smooth and seamless parking. In fact, it's probably the fastest and easiest parking option at East Midlands airport.

It barely even involves parking. Glide through the barriers at the Meet and Greet drop-off near the terminal and make your way to your designated space.

A speedy start to your holiday. Once you've pulled in, a qualified, fully-insured driver will take care of the parking for you while you head to check-in. Just hand your keys in at reception and your holiday begins.

When you're back, there's no wasting time searching for your car. You'll be shown where it is - it's as simple as that.

You can rest assured your car will never leave the airport. It'll stay at one of the airport's car parks, just minutes from the terminal. They have hourly staff patrols and CCTV is in use, so you can fly knowing it will be well looked after.

Hints, tips and extra bits:

Accessibility - While the car park is perfect for disabled passengers, since there is no need to transfer to the airport, unfortunately it cannot accept adapted vehicles as its drivers are not insured to move these. If you have a Blue Badge you'll need to let the car park know when you arrive.

Arrival Procedures

Take the middle lane for the Short Stay car park and Meet and Greet. At the barrier, quote your booking reference and name over the intercom. While you wait, your car will be checked by cameras to make sure it is returned to you exactly as you left it when you get back. You will then be told where to park and the barrier will rise. Unload your bags and head to the Meet and Greet reception to hand over your keys and collect your receipt, which you should keep safe until you return. You'll need to take all other keys and key rings off when you hand your keys in, as the car park can't accept these.

Departure Procedures

When you arrive back, go to reception and hand over your barrier ticket with the sticker. They'll use this to match up the stickers with those on your keys and will give you your keys back. They'll also give you a new ticket for the barrier. Pick up your car and then head to the barrier, slot in the new ticket and the barriers will lift and you can just drive on home.

Security

Your car will be moved to one of the on-airport Long Stay car parks, which are all protected by CCTV, entry and exit barriers, regular patrols and fences. They have all been awarded the Park Mark, a security award for car parks which is accredited by the police.

Transfer Information

No transfers will be required as you are met at both ends of your journey, at the Short Stay car park, just a couple of minutes walk to check-in.

Disabled Information

While the car park is perfect for disabled passengers, since there is no need to transfer to the airport, unfortunately it cannot accept adapted vehicles as its drivers are not insured to move these. If you have a Blue Badge you'll need to let the car park know when you arrive.
