How hard is it to find the longstay car park for terminal 5 at heathrow airport?
Going to new york in sep and was thinking of driving myself there rather than getting a cab,never having driven up there myself is it easy to find the longstay car park for terminal 5 when you get there? many thanks.Chris
It is easy to get to and is close to some of the other long stays car parks on the (western) perimeter road. There’s a map on the heathrow airport website.
The airport’s own longstay car parks are the most expensive around.
I’d personally consider the off site alternatives such as Purple parking

What are the car park prices at Stansted Airport?
If lets say I want to park there for an hour how much would that be?
Thanks
Thats really stupid you can’t park for an hour to pick somone up!
you cant really just park there for an hour - if you are dropping someone off there are drop off bays - otherwise the car parks charge by the day and can vary depending on where abouts they are on the airport they are and how far in advance you book the car park
Is there a park and ride in liverpool?
We are coming down for one night and will arrive in Liverpool around 9pm on Friday night (staying at the city centre Travelodge) and will leave about 6ish on Saturday evening. Is there somewhere we could park and ride (to the North of Liverpool) or could park them flag a taxi? If not, is there anywhere we can park for the whole time not too expensively?
there are loads of city centre car parks in Liverpool but overnight is not going to be that cheap in most of them. THere are also a handful of pay and display NCP ones on wasteground which might not necessarily be that secure overnight.
One or two hotels though have a £5 a day parking scheme - notably the Liner hotel next to Lime Street station and the Ibis on the Strand (waterfront) - where you’ll need to park up then get a permit from inside the hotel. - The strand one would be relatively handy for getting buses from the liverpool one bus station up to the north of the city - and either of these will have loads of black cabs in the vicinity.
Parking my car at Gatwick Airport, has anyone else ever done that?
I am looking on line at where to park my car but prices range from £46 to over £100 I am wanting to park the car for a fortnight and the car parks are all different, all have free transport to the hotel but I am worried as I have never done this before, If anyone can suggest a company that they have used then please let me know. Thanks
I’ve used Purple Parking before (http://www.purpleparkin.co.uk/) - both at Gatwick and Heathrow. I have found them to be reliable and efficient.
A fortnight in March at Gatwick costs £52.50 for normal parking.
If you wanted to do it in style, then Purple Parking do "meet and greet" (where you drop your car off at the terminal and they park it. Then they bring it back to the terminal when you arrive) and costs from £97.50.
I’ve used the meet and greet at Heathrow before, and it was very hassle free (I also checked the mileage, and they hadn’t driven the car more than a 10 mile round trip to park it wherever they stored it whilst i was away).
