Heathrow car parks announce changes to transfer services

Thursday, March 26th, 2009 by Casey

Two car parks at Heathrow Airport are changing the terminals to which they will provide transfer services.

Heathrow Courtlands will now serve Terminals 1-3 only.  Any customers flying from a different Heathrowblog-updated-polaroid-car-park terminal who booked the service prior to the change will still be transferred to their departure terminal.

Heathrow Economy Parking no longer serves Terminals 1-3, and will only provide transfers to Terminals 4 and 5.  Currently, transfers are only being provided to Terminal 4, with service to Terminal 5 to start on the 6th of April 2009.  Customers who have already booked Economy Parking for Heathrow Terminals 1-3 will be upgraded to On Airport Long Stay Parking. Travellers affected by these transfer service changes will be contacted with details in due course.

Spring discounts for Heathrow Sofitel and Stansted Hilton

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009 by Casey

We’re happy to announce special discounted Spring rates for two fantastic airport hotels.

The 5-star Heathrow Sofitel now has reduced rates for packages that include secure airport parking provided by Meteor car park.  These special rates are available now and apply to stays during the Easter holidays only (3-19 April 2009).

Special discounted rates are also currently available for packages at the 4-star Stansted Hilton that include a buffet breakfast.  The rates apply to bookings made up to and including 22nd May 2009, for hotel stays between 3rd April and 1st June 2009.  These hotel packages are not amendable or refundable.

Due to the very limited time these rates will be on offer, we highly recommend booking these airport hotel deals as soon as possible to avoid missing out!

Summer Special Parking to serve Gatwick North Only

Friday, February 13th, 2009 by Casey

Summer Special Parking at Gatwick Airport has recently announced they will only serve the North Terminal as of the 2nd of March 2009.

Although the car park will only provide transfers to the North Terminal, travellers flying out of the South Terminal can still take Gatwick’s free monorail service, which departs from the North every six minutes and takes around two minutes to reach the South.

As always, we have plenty of great options for parking at Gatwick that serve both terminals, like the ever-popular APH Parking, the gosimply Award-winning Cophall Farm Parking or, for the ultimate in convenience, try one of our Gatwick meet and greet parking services.

New! Sofitel Park and Walk Service at Gatwick Airport

Sunday, February 8th, 2009 by Casey

gosimply.com is happy to announce a new service available to those looking for convenient parking at Gatwick.

With Sofitel Park and Walk, customers park their vehicle in the Gatwick Sofitel Hotel car park and turn in their keys at reception.  Since the Sofitel is connected to Gatwick’s North terminal by a covered walkway, no transfers are needed.  Travellers leaving from the South terminal can use the free 24-hour monorail service, which runs every 3 minutes and takes approximately 2 minutes.

Vehicles are moved to a nearby secure car park, then returned to the hotel car park for collection.

And remember, if you’re looking for the ultimate in convenient Gatwick Airport parking, look no further than our great Meet and Greet services like Maple Manor Parking, Cophall Farm Meet & Greet and Meteor Parking.
