Airport Parking and Hotels Sees Surge in Off-Airport Park and Ride Pre-Bookings in the Wake of Current Terror Threat

Park and Ride long stay parking of this type offers travellers the convenience of not having to drive right into the airport. Instead, they can let the park and ride operator's bus take them to the terminal. The company offers park and ride airport parking at over 20 airports across the UK including Gatwick, Heathrow and Manchester.

Nick Caunter, managing director, Airport Parking and Hotels said: "We take pre-bookings for both on and off-airport parking products and in the last few days we have had a general upsurge in customers booking. This seems to be because some people who were hoping to get a 'Kiss and Fly' lift to the airport have changed their plans. But interestingly, there has been a noticeable bias towards park and ride style off-airport parking -- reports are that travellers want to avoid the congestion and security checks they may be subjected to in a private car. The savvy UK traveller is always one step ahead."
