The days of Heathrow Airport parking by winging it are a thing of the past. The busiest airport in the UK and third busiest in the world, Heathrow Airport is used by over 90 carriers and has almost 70 million people using it every year. This would make finding a parking space a major challenge were it not for the well-organized parking system at Heathrow Airport.
Parking at Heathrow Airport can be at a choice of on-airport or off-airport premises. On-site, parking facilities are managed by BAA, the same company that operates Heathrow Airport itself. Off-site, parking services are provided by various companies some of which also partner with BAA for on-site parking. The services provided by all these organizations are similar but pricing varies, with BAA claiming that at Heathrow Airport, they have the lowest prices.
The parking services at Heathrow Airport include long-stay parking, short-stay parking, business parking, valet services and drop off/pick up services, depending upon the requirements of the individual traveller. Car parks are properly secured with adequate lighting, CCTV camera monitoring, high-security fences and regular patrols. Free coach service between car parks and terminal buildings is regularly provided.
What makes parking at Heathrow Airport especially convenient for the airline traveller is the ability to book parking space online. Heathrow Airport maintains a web site that allows a traveller to pre-book parking space at the airport. The web site allows you to specify the terminal, entry and exit dates. It also provides directions to the car park as well as entry and exit procedures. Payment can be made via credit or debit cards through your computer or mobile phone.
The companies that operate off-site parking facilities provide services that are just as convenient, with their car parks usually located less than a mile from the terminals. These companies also allow you to book parking space online. Because these off-site companies maintain parking facilities in many other airports around the UK, the web site allows you to choose the airport where you want to book parking space. Some of these companies even have number plate recognition to save you the trouble of having to get a ticket. This allows you to just drive straight to your parking slot.
Online booking of off-site parking facilities allows you to do more than book parking space. You can use the web site to book airport lounges, hotel rooms and car hire at discounted rates. Purchasing travel insurance is also possible at these web sites. Moreover, the sites provide you with a wide variety of travel information starting from finding a car park near your home. Other information on offer includes flight information, travel advice, country and city guides and travel hints about the destinations you are headed for. There are also rewards programs and volume discounts, such as season tickets, all available online.
Online parking has definitely taken the hassle out of finding parking space at an airport. In this respect, Heathrow Airport parking systems have set the standard for international airports all over the world.
