A Mumsnetter's guide to Purple Parking
There are too many options! What kinds of airport parking can I get with Purple Parking?
Your basic offerings with Purple Parking include meet and greet parking, park and ride parking, and other city centre parking options.
Each of them can come with other bells and whistles, including combined airport hotel and parking purchases, premium options like airport pick-up and having your car waiting for you when you get home.
Does Purple Parking cover the airport I’m flying out of?
You can flick through the full array of airports via the ‘airport parking’ page on the Purple Parking site to see if your airport is on the list.
Each individual airport also has its own page, so you can see all the different car parks and pick something that suits.
Finding a space myself is stressful - does Purple Parking offer valet parking?
At almost 30 airports across the country, Purple Parking offers meet and greet parking - essentially having your car picked up at the airport on arrival so you can breeze straight into the terminal.
To find out if the airport you depart from is included, you can check out the Purple Parking meet and greet parking page.
You can also get the reverse - park and ride premium allows you to shuttle bus in, but have your car waiting for you upon your return.
How early should I turn up at the Purple Parking airport car park in order to catch my flight?
The most common advice is to turn up to the airport two hours before your flight.
With meet and greet parking, you’ll be able to roll up right next to the airport, and most park and ride car parks offer shuttle buses at least every half an hour, so take that into account.
Purple Parking actually offers insight into some of the times different airlines advise, so it’s worth a look if you’re worried.
Let's talk about Purple Parking
With screaming kids in the back, hastily packed bags in the boot and the general stress of being en route to a holiday with family in tow, the last thing you want to be worrying about is airport parking. Hopefully, a Purple Parking discount code will help kill a little bit of that stress and make things a little easier.
Find your airport, pick your package and expect a quality service, with options to shuttle bus or be picked up depending on your budget (and the amount of nagging you can endure before giving in to an easier life).
Save your pocket money with Purple Parking
Purple Parking also allows you to get quotes for airport hotels and airport lounges, both of which can be surprisingly cheap and offer a nice alternative to the regular stress of flying.
If you’re flying particularly early or late, putting your Purple Parking promo code down on an airport hotel may actually make things easier, and sometimes cost less than awkward transport options combined with premium parking.
