Long Term Parking - Gatwick
Evening all.

Just wanted to some tips on long term parking at gatwick.

I've found a place that will do it for £96 albeit they are offsite and 10-15 minutes from the airport according to their website and we will be on the shuttle in peak times ....

Dates are:
Drop off at around 9am on Thursday (16th)
Pick up around 10pm on Jan 8

So? Words of wisdom?

TP- would that be with APH???
If so, if you or one of the family are an AA member, then you'll get a 20% discount at Gatwick.
see here...AA APH offer
I've used them at both Birmingham & Manchester & they are spot on.
Cheers
Andy

We fly out every month and £4 per day is pretty good - what is the name of the company?

It is with APH - to be honest I'm not sure if we're with the AA because our roadside assist came with the car (it's a year old now) and we've never used it.

I'll check it out.

Cheers Rushjob

What's the cost of a return taxi to Gatwick?
Or the train?
Or the bus?
Or Shank's pony?

Ahhh - island life New Year's Eve ... the Spanish tend to stay in with their families and then emerge about 1.30am to party until dawn. Didn't know that the first year we were there and went to bed at one thinking what a quiet boring place - missed all the fun
