I've used the airport parking quite a bit over the years, and always found it fairly easy if ridiculously expensive - very much like the absolute rip-off if you ever have to collect someone at the terminal in short stay. Anyway, this is the first time I've been asked to write a review. I normally choose to walk from wherever I park to the terminal, to keep the blood pumping before a flight and all that, it's not far. However the time before last I was late and tried to catch the "transfer"; I saw the bus coming and decided on my closest next pick up point, so started running for that. The way the bus snakes about I was sure I could make it, and it was obvious to the driver what I intended to do. I even made eye contact with him at one point - he turned his head and looked at me dragging only a carry on, clearly in a hurry and heading towards the stop. I even slowed - I was so confident that he'd seen me and appeared to acknowledge what my intent was - actually I did make it, only for him to shut the doors as I levelled with them and off he trundled, in a bus with about six people on board. I was furious and if I'd had more time would have found him and asked why he did that. Therefore, whilst the facility is fairly good (two lines painted on tarmac between which I park my car, how could it be anything else?), I find the whole issue of parking at the airport a distasteful one for two reasons; 1) It's too expensive, and 2) I can still see the driver with grey hair and glasses looking stupidly at me through the window as I was running towards the pick up point.
