What happens after I have made my car parking booking?

We will also send you a booking confirmation email. Please have this with you when you arrive at the airport in case it is needed. Please ensure that your vehicle registration details are correct as this is used to give you access to the car park. There is an option to amend your booking if you will be arriving at the airport in a different vehicle than originally planned.

You are responsible for supplying a valid email and we cannot be held responsible for the non-delivery of booking confirmation emails due to transmission failure or incorrect address details.

Failure to receive the confirmation email has no bearing on the status of your booking, your booking is still valid, but please check your junk or spam folder just in case your booking confirmation email has been sent there. If not, your email address may have been entered incorrectly.

Can I make a booking to park at the airport today?

Yes. Bookings can be made up to at least 2 hours prior to your arrival time at the relevant Airport.

All Car Park bookings are subject to availability and the Airport reserves the right to withdraw availability at its entire discretion for a given date.

What payment methods are accepted for pre-booking?

Payment must be made in advance and online. We accept all major credit cards, debit cards and PayPal for pre-booking.

We reserve the right not to fulfil your booking if your card is declined for any reason, if the payment card has been used fraudulently or without the cardholder's permission, or if you are under the age of 18.

How do I know my payment details are secure?

To protect your privacy and security, our website uses SSL encryption software, which is the industry standard. It encrypts your personal information so that it cannot be read.

Our entire website, and booking system, use SSL encryption software to ensure each session is safe.

How do I get a VAT receipt?

Once you have made your transaction, the VAT receipt is the results presented on the screen. Your booking confirmation is your VAT receipt too. You can log into the manage my booking section to access your booking and resend your booking confirmation email, so you can get this information at any time.

I have booked parking in advance, what do I need to bring to the airport?

The barrier will recognise your vehicle registration from your booking information.  On exit, the barrier will recognise your vehicle registration and lift to permit exit.

If your vehicle registration is not recognised, please buzz for assistance and give your booking reference. Our new Short Stay car park barrier system will also be ticket reduced, meaning tickets will no longer be issued on entry. Tickets will only be issued if the number plate cannot be read by the cameras.

Our email booking confirmation will help direct you to the correct car park and also states your booking reference number so please have it to hand, should you need to speak to a member of staff.

Parking availability and price

Why is there no availability for the dates I am trying to book?

Lack of car park availability could be due to:

The car park is fully booked for all or part of your stay;

Because the booking conditions for the car parking product have not been met;

Because you are trying to book for less than the minimum stay.

Try adjusting your selection or choose another car park.

How are parking prices calculated?

Car parks are priced per calendar day or part thereof. Prices are subject to change and quotes are valid at the time of booking only. The number of days charged is calculated on the basis of the dates and times you select at the time of booking.
