Types of Heathrow Airport Parking

When it comes to the parking Heathrow has to offer, there is a wide variety of choice. However, the car parks can be broadly split into three main categories. These are as follows:

 

Park & Ride

Often found further from the terminals than your conventional car parks, these car parks provide the best prices. There are regular shuttles that will bring you to your desired terminal in a timely manner. The way these services work is quite simple as well.

On arrival you drive to the car park and drop off your car. Then you take the shuttle bus to the airport.

Upon your return, you contact the car park after landing and a shuttle bus will pick you up and bring you back to your car.

Simple and well-priced.

 

Meet & Greet

These services provide exquisite luxury and convenience. This is the choice for those in a rush or those looking to have a smooth hassle-free experience when it comes to their parking experience. The way it works is as follows.

You arrive at the terminal at the agreed upon time, where a uniformed member of the organization will meet you and take your car to the car park. You can then head directly to your check in.

Ultimate convenience and minimal hassle.

 

Park & Stroll

Just a short walk to the terminal awaits you when you choose these providers. The easiest to use and with the least hassle possible, however these providers tend to be quite expensive.

Easy but costly.

 

Meet & Greet Services

Below we have chosen our favourite Meet & Greet service for you, with a bit of information about what this provider can offer you.

Stress Free Parking

Stress Free Parking Heathrow

Servicing all four operational terminals at Heathrow, this operator proves itself an exceptional choice for those looking to use a Meet & Greet service.

Open 24/7 and taking only 5 minutes of your time means that this provider lives up to its name, and keeps your experience stress-free.

Stress Free Parking is also highly secure, featuring CCTV, regular patrols and fully trained and insured drivers and personnel. To top it all off, the car park has been awarded the police accredited Park Mark security award. This means you needn’t worry about your vehicle while you are travelling.

For those looking to travel from Terminal 4, you will need to call the operator beforehand to ensure that the driver can meet you at the pick-up point in the Short Stay car park. Those who have chosen Terminal 2, Terminal 3 or Heathrow Terminal 5 parking do not need to call ahead. The drop-off/pick up points can still be found in the Short Stay car parks for each terminal.

 

Park & Ride Providers

Here we have listed the official Park & Ride providers that operate out of Heathrow Airport for your convenience.

 

Official Long Stay Heathrow

The official long stay car parks at Heathrow is highly secure with CCTV and security patrols. They also provide shuttle busses that can be caught to the airport. The shuttle times to each terminal are as follows:

Heathrow Long Stay Shuttle Times

Terminal 210 minutes
Terminal 318 minutes
Terminal 45 minutes
Terminal 57 minutes

 

The long stay car park uses number plate recognition technology at the barrier. A ticket will be printed with your details and once the barrier opens you can proceed to your allocated spot. In case of difficulties, just press the intercom button for assistance.

On your return, you can catch a shuttle bus from Bus Stop 21 between the hours of 04:00 and 23:30. Outside those hours, you will need to call and request a transfer on 020 8745 6261.

Being an official airport car park, the price of the long stay can be quite steep. As such, we recommend booking another provider through our platform for a more competitive price.
