can i turn up tomorrow at gatwick airport and get a long term parking stay?
we have our honymoon tomorrow at 6 am.
we have decided to drive there but would we be able to just turn up there and be able to park our car in a long term carpark and pay cash tomorrow.
We have both lost our bank cards and are unable to book online.
would the car park people be there at that time in the morning to pay cash for our car to be parked for a week
It’s nearly a 24 hour service and I highly doubt no one will be there. If they have the space then yes they’ll accommodate - any more money is good. Keep trying around if some can’t help you though. There are lots of long term car parks available.

Travel Agents: Hints And Tips
More and more people are booking their vacations and doing the research online. Travel agents are seeing less people walking through their doors. There are many websites that help people find the best deals and allow you to make all of your plans through their sites. I have used travel agents since my senior year trip and no matter how many websites offer unbeatable deals, I will remain loyal to travel agents.
I have taken a liking to doing my own research. It isn’t difficult to go ahead and check out the destinations that you are thinking about exploring. I have done that many times. I have even looked at rates to see if they are affordable before I approach travel agents. I certainly don’t want to spend my time, or their time, looking into trying to find a travel deal that I can afford if I already know that I cannot.
Travel agents are not only in existence to book your travel. They are there to answer any and all of your questions regarding traveling. If you are planning on international travel, they can advise you of things you need to know. You can find out what some of the laws are that might affect you. They know all of the fees for entering and exiting the countries. Not only can they give you the facts, but they make recommendations as to where you may want to travel to and what there is to see and do.
Travel agents are there to make your life easier and ensure that your vacation needs are completely taken care of. The internet cannot do that. As much as people like and trust the internet to make everything perfect, there is something more comforting about talking to an actual person. You can book all of your flights and hotels through the internet but when it comes to complaining or trying to resolve an issue, suddenly a website cannot be of assistance. Travel agents are there to assist you.
When my husband and I decided to elope to exchange vows, we called up some travel agents. One in particular, seemed to be exactly what we were looking for. She was very sweet and incredibly helpful. By the time I ended the 30 minute conversation with her, she had renewed my faith in travel agents. She had given me many choices of where we could go that we’d have wonderful weather for the month we were planning to travel. She gave us some educated guesses about pricing without even checking anything officially. I asked tons of questions and she was incredibly patient with me. She booked our vacation that same afternoon and even put us in touch with a wedding coordinator at the resort.
It turned out wonderfully, just as she promised. I’m also a fan of travel agents over the internet because if you end up booking the vacation from hell, you have no one to blame but yourself. If you used a travel agency, at least you’ll have someone to complain to.

Can you now drop people off at Heathrow airport?
(rather than parking in the short stay)?
You always could drop them off - the car parks couldn’t have coped otherwise. The closest drop off lane to the terminals is closed (or was last week) but the others are open. The police move you on really quickly.
parking at heathrow airport?
im flying from heathrow and want to leave my car for 15 days somewhere safe.
wheres the best place ?
do i need to book in advance or just turn up ?
i maybe considering hotel and parking, has anyone ever done this? and at what cost ?
Hi,
I’d suggest you book a hotel with parking included. I’ve just looked up the website I generally use:
http://www.airport-parking-quote.co.uk/hotel-and-parking/index.htm
and the prices they have start from £59 for one night in a three-star hotel with 15 days parking included. It’s not much more than the price for parking on its own. =]
Booking ahead is the best idea (even if you’re flying next day). If you turn up at the reception desk, you’re more likely to end up paying close to the offical rack rate and it’s harder for you to shop around (hotels are scattered all over the place, not all close to Heathrow itself).
I’ve used the Premier Inn Heathrow and been really happy - it’s more expensive because it’s close to the airport, check-out is later than at some hotels, and parking is on-site.
Friends have used the Crowne Plaza and the Marriott in Windsor and say good things about both. The APQ website gives good clear info about where and how your car is parked.
When I’ve travelled on last-minute deals I start with the airport quotes site and then ring the hotel direct to haggle over the price. I’ve always managed to get them to drop a bit on the price, include breakfast for the room-only rate… etc. XD
Before you commit yourself to booking, it’s also a good idea to check out what reviews on TripAdvisor say about other people’s experiences at the hotel you’re considering.

Anyway, best of luck with the trip — hope it’s somewhere hot sunny & gorgeous…
