If you are flying from Heathrow, one of the first choices you will face is Meet & Greet or Park & Ride. Both keep your car in a secure car park while you are away. They differ in how you get to the terminal, and in what they cost.
Meet & Greet parking
You drive to your departure terminal and hand your car to one of our drivers at the kerbside. There is no shuttle to wait for and no walk across a car park with your luggage.
Best for: families with children, passengers with mobility needs, business travellers, and early or late flights.
Typical saving vs airport: 40–60% cheaper than Heathrow's own short-stay car parks.
Park & Ride
Park & Ride is the budget option. You drive to our off-airport car park, leave the car, and ride a shuttle to your terminal. Shuttles usually run every 10–20 minutes.
Best for: solo travellers, couples travelling light, and anyone keeping costs down.
Typical saving: 50–70% cheaper than Heathrow official long-stay car parks.
Price comparison (example: 7 nights)
| Option | 7 days | 14 days |
|---|---|---|
| Park & Ride | from £49 | from £89 |
| Meet & Greet | from £89 | from £149 |
| Heathrow Short Stay | £250+ | £400+ |
Which should you pick?
If your time and comfort matter most, go for Meet & Greet. If the budget matters most, Park & Ride is excellent value. Either way you will pay well below the airport's own prices.
