**gail and david roberts** · 05-04-2011, 11:00

As we are on a late flight to Florida this year
we have decided to go to the airport in are own car, and park it up
we have used purple parking in the passed at Manchester ,but we ended up wait 30 minutes outside for them to come and get us when we returned.[msnscared].

Can anyone recommend a good company,with good safe parking please [msnsmile2]
Thank you [msnsmile2]

Book Valet parking direct on the airport's website. It's a little more than the others but not a lot and is REALLY handy as you literally drive to the terminal to drop off your car. On your return you collect the car just over the road from the terminal on the ground floor of the multiple storey car park.

We booked the Valet parking when we left 7 days ago. We drove to terminal 1 parked the car and went straight into the terminal building. They bring you car back 4 hours before arrival. Cost us 50 GB pounds for 2 weeks

We use Jet parks,(used to be Carminder) 2 very big car parks just accross the roundabout on Thorley lane, if you were brave enough to cross the dual carriageway you could walk it to the airport!

Sounds good - where do they park your car while you're away?

Book in at the Radisson for the night and you can leave your car there.

Not sure where they take your car but the Valet parking is owned by Manchester Airport and they insure the car.
