Instructions to drop off car, getting to airport and collecting car after my holiday were all very simple and easy to follow. Have used APH many a time as always good value for money.

We use this service several times a year. It is fast, efficient and the drivers are very helpful. The only negative is that the bus stop at the North Terminal is quite a walk from the terminal, but I guess you have no control over that!

Good directions on locating the parking area. It is a bit far from the terminal so leave a few extra minutes. Would have been helpful if car had snow removed before picking it up.

After previous experiences with other car park companies I was not expecting a very professional well run and organised company. There is no doubt that we will use your services again in the future.

Drop-off and pick-up driver (same person) was the most polite and helpful in every respect. We will use your facility again.

I have often used this car park and have no reason to change. All staff are polite and friendly especially the drivers who always take care of the cases etc, telling customers to deal with checkout. On my return last night I witnessed another supplier's driver sitting behind the wheel whilst his many passengers struggled to load and stack their own luggage. Something I have never seen with APH.

Very easy to find, no hassle and relaxed transfer to the bus.Smooth drive to North terminal. Can't foresee any traffic problems, even at rush-hours. Excellent return pick-up due to chauffer contact with base. No negative comments.

Really helpful staff, helped with luggage from car to bus and then park your car for you. Buses were clean and comfortable and the distance from the airport wasn't too far at all. Would definitely use them again in the future.

the only issue was a very much longer wait in the cold than expected before the return coach arrived.

Your Questions
Questions
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
