Stansted Parking Reviews
Short Stay Economy - Blue Zone
Stansted blue zone, the barrier district recognise my reg but the lady was very helpful and let me in, on my return I had to get assistance to get out but it was no problem
Mrs Grant, 22 Nov, 2020 (5 out of 5)
Short Stay
I booked parking at Stansted Airport for 12 nights. My wife is disabled and has a mobility scooter so I booked the 'orange' carpark. It was very close and easy but so much more expensive than the car parks with the courtesy bus. It makes the holiday extra expensive. I think we will have to struggle with the scooter on the bus next time. I do think that there could be a cheaper rate for disabled badge holders to park close to the airport.
Mrs Golder, 09 Nov, 2020 (5 out of 5)
Meet and Greet
Meet and greet parking at Stansted worked smoothly and simply. Use it regularly for this reason.
Mr Batten, 28 Oct, 2020 (5 out of 5)
Meet and Greet
Meet & Greet at Stansted airport exactly as described, easy to find, cheerful & helpful staff, close to the terminal and all under cover in case of bad weather, will definitely use again
Mr O'grady, 22 Oct, 2020 (5 out of 5)
Meet and Greet
From dropping my car on arrival at Stansted Airport Meet and Greet to collecting it 3 weeks later, everything went really smoothly. Staff at the reception were very friendly and efficient. All COVID-19 precautions were in place
