GUEST BLOG: Which Kind of Airport Parking is Right for Your Business?

Airport parking can be a bit of a necessary evil, but it doesn’t have to be. SkyParkSecure is here to help you figure out what kind of parking is right for your business. And then we’ll make sure you get a good deal as well as keeping your swanky company car safe and secure!

First of all, answer a few questions here to help you decide whether park and ride, on-airport parking or meet and greet parking makes the most sense for your business travel.

Now you know which airport parking is going to work best for you, how can you be sure you’re spending that company cash wisely? Whether you book with SkyParkSecure.com or another consolidator, we suggest you consider the following:

1)     Always Use a Comparison Website

Not only is this a surefire way to view a range of products rather than having to check a dozen websites individually, you’ll also save some of that precious budget. Car parks offer little to no discount when you go to them direct, whereas SkyParkSecure buys spaces in bulk and passes on these savings to the consumer. You’ll often find consolidators’ prices to be up to 60% cheaper than booking on the gate

2) Have a Hunt for a Discount Code

We’ve all done it when we’re ordering pizza, but this is a clever tactic for any purchase. Make sure you have a look for any discount or promo codes online before making your booking to maximise savings. And to make it super simple, we’ll give you one for free here:

3) Read Independent Reviews

Reviews let you take a quick glance at whether a service fulfilled other customers’ needs or not. But there are airport parking websites out there that only use their own in-house review platform, meaning it’s possible for them to omit bad reviews and prioritise good ones. SkyParkSecure.com uses independent review platform Reevoo for our reviews so a car park’s scores are always there for you to see — good and bad. It’s the only way to get genuine guidance!

4) Look for the Park Mark Logo

If you’ve finally decided on the right car park for your trip, there’s one last thing to do — check that it has Park Mark accreditation. The Park Mark Safer Parking Scheme [parkmark.co.uk] is a national standard for UK car parks that have low crime, as well as measures in places to ensure the safety of customers and their vehicles. If your car park doesn’t have this award, consider another one.
