I've used APH Gatwick a few times now. Each time it's been really easy and quick: Park outside office, drop keys and courtesy bus always waiting. I would have given 5 starts but on this occasion the bus driver decided to pick up arriving passengers from south terminal first before dropping all the departing passengers who were only going from north terminal. This added unnecessary delay and caused problems with the luggage all piled on top of eachother. The priority should be drop offs first - in the past this has been the case. Otherwise a good experience.

Good clear instructions as to the whereabouts of the car park so easy to find. Had to wait for other customers to board/fill the bus to the terminal so advisable to make sure you have plenty of time before check in at the airport. The return was a little disappointing, we followed the instructions given when dropping the car off and proceeded to the bus stop to wait. As we had hand baggage only we were through very quickly but by the time a bus arrived we had been joined by others from our flight who had waited to collect their bags. It's obvious that the service operates for the majority regardless of what time you call them. It was an hour from landing before we were at the car park. With it being a full bus there was also the potential to have to wait in a queue to get your car keys back - although in our case I realised this and got off the bus quickly to make sure I was at the first in. All in all there's nothing wrong with the service, it's good value and works reasonably well, it's just that I've used others that have the edge on it.

My sat nav took me directly to the location but if it hadn't the directions given online by the company were spot on. Very easy process, very helpful and friendly staff both and reception and especially the bus drivers. Will definitely be using again.

Fantastic service .....clear and precise directions to find you , on arrival a swift check in and an extremely helpful bus driver ( think her name began with m ) . On arrival back at Gatwick we only waited 2 minutes for a bus . Our car was waiting in a prime position for us to leave the car park and get on our way . Thank you , will definitely use you next time and will recommend you to family and friends

The car park was easy to find and you could leave the car right at the reception which is easier than looking for a space. There was a small queue in front but it only took a few minutes to check each person in. The bus left promptly and the driver was helpful with the heavy bags.

What happens if my holiday is cancelled or moved due to Covid?Providing that we receive more than 24 hours notice prior to your date of travel we are able to amend and cancel flexible bookings.
Hi,We've used you quite a bit. Can you confirm that this booking can be changed if required. Thomson have a habit of changing flight times and have even changed airports over the last 3/4 years.ThanksThank you for your question. As long as you book the flexible option then changes can be made, subject to any price changes. The saver product is non amendable and non refundable.
what is your cancellation policy?For the above, if you cancel no later than 24hours prior to your parking date/time we refund less
I have a roof box fitted to my car and have measured it to stand at 2.15m. I know the height restriction is 2.4m but wanted to check that this should be ok!?Thank you for your question, I have double checked with the car park and this will be fine.
What do you mean by "drop off time"?Is that dropping the car off at your premises, or passenger drop off at the airport?The drop off time is the time you will be dropping the car off at the car park and return time is approximately what time you will get back to the car park. Most people add on 2 hours after the flight landing time, to give them plenty of time to reach the car park
