Forget finding a parking space and let someone else take care of your car with the great-value Official Meet and Greet at T2.

Need to know

There's no need to worry about parking, as a member of the team will meet you in the Short Stay and park for you.

Drive to the airport and head for the terminal – we'll give you more details in your booking confirmation – then meet your driver on the ground floor of the Short Stay car park. Go to the parking reception and give the driver your keys, then walk to the terminal, 2-5 minutes away.

The driver will take your car to a secured, airport-approved car park where it will stay until you get back.

Electric vehicle charging

Electric charging is available in the Short Stay car park where they have 3-7KW (rapid) charge units. When you check in your car mention it to a member of staff and they'll be able to provide you with more details.

Please note that the use of electric charging is subject to availability and you may need to download the Pod point app.

Accessibility

This service is suitable for customers with limited mobility, as a shuttle bus isn't needed.

Security

The car park is secured by:

• Entry and exit barriers monitored by CCTV
• Fencing
• Floodlighting
• 24-hour staff patrols

The small print

In August 2023, London's Ultra Low Emissions Zone (ULEZ) expanded to include all terminals at Heathrow Airport. This is part of an initiative to help tackle air pollution.

If your vehicle doesn't meet ULEZ standards, you'll need to pay the daily ULEZ charge when driving through Heathrow – make sure you check before you travel.

The car park is open between 5am and 11pm.

Most standard cars (without trailers/no more than 8 seats) will be accepted at the car park as long as they fit under the 2.2m entry barrier. Double-check the height of your vehicle if you're taking a roof box.

Early or late? If you're delayed coming back, you'll need to pay for the extra parking at the car park's normal rate. The amount you'll be charged will be based on the calculated difference tracked by the car park and will be displayed on the exit barrier screen. If you come back early, we can't give you a refund on any unused time.

Getting to and from airport

Arriving at the airport

Drive up to the barrier of the Short Stay car park where your number plate will be recognised automatically and a ticket with your booking reference on will be issued.

Go down to Level 1, following the signs for Fast Track. When you reach the Fast Track barrier insert the ticket you were given. This will be returned and the barrier will lift. Do not take another ticket. Park in a dedicated Meet & Greet bay & check in your car at the Meet & Greet office.

From there, walk to the terminal, 1-2 minutes away.

Returning to the airport

Make your way back to the Meet & Greet reception on Level 1 of the Short Stay car park and collect your keys.

Drive to the exit barrier of the Fast Track zone and insert the ticket you were given on arrival. Remove the ticket again and proceed to the main exit of the Short Stay. Insert the ticket again at the exit barrier and the barrier will open.

The car park is open between 5am and 11pm.
