PostHeaderIcon Where do i pick up someone arriving at Heathrow from USA?

My girlfriend is finally (wooooo) moving over here to the UK with me.
She’s arriving on a Northwest Airlines service from Detroit, where is the best place to pick her up from in my car.
Is there a specific parking zone for this situation?

Yes, there are different car parks for all the separate terminals at Heathrow, also two different types of car parks, long stay & short stay(different prices).

Best bet, is to ask your g/f for the flight number of her flight, find out at which terminal that flight comes into, using the flight number, and then find out where the right car park is for the terminal.

Hope this helps!

PostHeaderIcon I dont know where to park at Gatwick!!!?

Help me! Lol.
My mum is going to gatwick on Sunday and she doesn’t know where she can park near it? Any answers.
Also is there a local taxi number that you could give me for gatwick?
Help meee please. =)
I dont want to be parking at Gatwick tho. I want to park near it.

There are two types of parking at Gatwick: Long Term and Short Term.

When you arrive at Gatwick there are clear signs for the long term car park. However if you’re looking to save money you can shop around. The Simply Parking site below shops around for you and states the best price. All the out of airport long term sites have buses into the North & South Terminal. However prepare to add at least 30 minutes to your journey so you don’t miss the really long queues at check in.

Short Term? For either North or South Terminal follow the signs first to the terminal then to the short term car park. Only use this if you’re meeting someone or seeing them off. The costs are very high over a very short time period.

Dropping Off, you can literally set someone down, but just don’t think about staying there any longer than it takes to take the bags out of the car. You will be moved along very quickly, or worse given a ticket.

Bon Voyage!

PostHeaderIcon Can anyone recommend a cheap/safe car park near Heathrow Airport, will need to leave the car for 10 days?


Check the hotels around the area for "park & fly" deals. There’s a Holiday Inn just outside Heathrow that charges a tenner a night for up to a fortnight if you spend one night as a guest or £12.00 a night if you don’t spend a night with them. The car park is well lighted and has security patrols. Safe journey!

PostHeaderIcon What is the best train station park or other car park, not too far away from Heathrow airport?


If its short stay parking (from 1 hour to 2 days) I would park at hayes & harlington Rail staion car park its £5 per day weekdays and £2 perday weekends. The station is just 1 stop from heathrow airport and the train that takes you there is a brand new class 360 no a stinking underground train like others have suggested. trains leave at 53 and 23 mins passed each hour and takes 7 mins direct to the airport. You may want to drive around some of the back roads near the station and park there to save paying in the car park.
