Tips for cheap parking at Edinburgh Airport

Edinburgh International Airport (EDI) is Scotland’s main air hub and is located just eight miles (13kms) west of the city. There is one comprehensive terminal in the airport with arrivals positioned on the ground floor and departures and the majority of the outlets and eateries situated on the first floor.

I am a project manager and because of my work I need to travel a lot. I frequently fly out of Edinburgh International airport to domestic destinations as well as a few international. I always arrive at the airport by private car and it is important for me that the airports represents good airport parking facilities. By now I almost tried all the available agencies and I can conclude that the services they provide are quite the same. However, the prices and locations of the facilities vary. Maybe my advice can be of some kind of help to you.

I would like to describe three of the better car parking services which are available at Edinburgh Airport.

Secure Airparks is the most spacious off airport facility which can be found just 500 yards away from the terminal building. Transportation services are 24 hours per day available on request and the duration of the trip to the airport terminal takes only one minute. Secure Airparks is awarded with a Secure Car Parks Award. Their site provides 24 hours patrols and security fencing. Secure Airparks also provides the comfortable Meet and Greet. It is the perfect start to any business trip or vacation. No trying to locate the car park or waiting for a shuttle bus. You just have to drive to the airport where they will meet you at an arranged time. A company’s representative will park your car for you and return it when you come back in Edinburgh again.

Park and Fly provide good value car parking as well. Their facility is just a short trip by coach from Edinburgh International Airport. The amenity is excellently secured including 24 hour surveillance, infra red which covers the perimeter and secure fencing. Park and Fly offer a regular transportation service which is operational around the clock and seven days per week to and from the terminal. The travel duration is about five to ten minutes depending on the gravity of traffic conditions.

Out of experience I know that booking airport parking in advance online is the best thing you can do. It will save you some time as well as a couple of pound. I guess all frequent airport users know that parking is not really cheap so a discounted rate is a nice benefit. The internet booking services which are mentioned below are some of the best online services. If you want to make your travels more easy-going I surely recommend these as they provide reliable, fast, secure, easy and efficient services. What’s more convenient than arranging your parking while sitting at home in your comfortable lazy chair?
