Travellers leaving from London often fly out of Heathrow Airport. Many of these travellers drive to the airport and use the Heathrow Parking options for maximum convenience.

Long stay parking is available for all travellers who plan to be gone a few days or more. There are three official long-stay lots on the grounds, which serve Terminals 1 and 3, Terminal 4 and Terminal 5. These lots are open year round and offer a free courtesy coach service that runs every ten to twelve minutes. There are stringent security measures in these carparks including security patrols, fencing and closed circuit TV monitoring.

Business parking is closer to the airport than the long stay area just like East Midlands Airport Parking. The transfer services are the same free courtesy coaches, but quicker and more frequent. There are three business lots, serving Terminals 1 and 3, Terminal 4 and Terminal 5. These lots are also very safe and have strict security measures to protect your vehicle while you are away.

Short stay Heathrow Airport parking is closest to each of the terminals. The cost of these lots is higher than the long stay or business lots, so it is best for parking for short periods of time, usually several hours or less. This is the ideal parking area for those people who are dropping off and picking up passengers, and like all of Heathrow Airport’s lots, is protected by strict security measures.

For the most convenient service, Heathrow Airport parking also has valet service. This is perfect if you are traveling with a large group or children, or have many bags to bring with you. When you first drive up to the terminal, there are designated car drop-off points for valet parking. The airport’s professional valet staff will greet you and park your car at a secure lot on the airport grounds. Your car will be available for pick-up at the same area when you return.

The valet parking service also offers car care service, which involves professional hand car wash and interior vacuuming service, and has consistently won the best airport parking care care award, beating Belfast Airport Parking for three years. British Airways also offers valet parking service at Terminals 3 and 5. The Heathrow Airport and British Airways valet parking drop-off and pick-up areas are open from 5:00 am to 9:30 pm.

For maximum convenience, parking at Heathrow Airport can be booked online in advance of your trip. This quick and easy service makes your trip a breeze and takes the hassle out of dealing with parking payment after your trip.
