Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 4,084 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the simple online booking process and mention that the efficient shuttle bus transfers make traveling with luggage very easy. Consumers find the convenient location very helpful, noting that short walks directly to the terminal save a lot of time and hassle. However, some people mentioned that shuttle buses can get extremely overcrowded and full during busy peak periods, causing unnecessary waiting times and frustration. Reviewers also noted that parking can feel relatively expensive overall, and unexpected extra charges or overstay fees can add up quickly for travelers.

Worth the peace of mind going with the airport parking. Parking is intuitive experience. Didn't get a step by step explanation before hand. Appreciated the adult experience and it was easy.

North Terminal parking: an absolute shambles

I prepaid £97 for Short Stay North, expecting a straightforward start and finish to my holiday. Instead, I got confusing signage, a failed booking system and days of unnecessary worry.

On arrival, my correct number plate appeared on the barrier screen, but the system failed to recognise my prepaid booking. I called for assistance and was told to take a ticket. Gatwick has since confirmed that its system read my registration correctly but failed to link it to the booking.

I then had to make calls from Portugal and spent my holiday worrying about being charged again when I returned. On exit, I had to call for assistance AGAIN, explain everything and give my name before they opened the barrier.

The signage was APPALLING. I initially entered a car park displaying “Short Stay Premium”, leaving me unsure whether my standard booking was valid there. After circulating, I eventually moved to Car Park 6.

Returning late at night was just as confusing. Signs directed me towards Short Stay and across the road, then I couldn’t find clear continuation signage identifying the entrance. Instead, I saw “Valet”. How difficult is it to put up a clear sign saying “Car Park 6 — Short Stay entrance”?

To top it off, on my first afternoon in Portugal I received an AutoPay failure email for a separate £10 drop-off charge. I was there to use prepaid parking. I paid because I didn’t want escalating charges hanging over my holiday. That refund request remains unresolved. A £10 minimum drop-off fee is ridiculous enough; receiving this demand while away made an already stressful experience worse.

Gatwick apologised but declined my request for £50, saying I had used the parking for its intended purpose. That misses the point completely: I paid for convenience and got hassle, uncertainty and holiday stress.

In my experience, South Terminal feels like a different airport. North Terminal parking needs a serious review of its signage, booking system and customer service. Thoroughly disappointing.

Dear MattS

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent experience with us.

I'm sorry to hear your booking was not recognised on entry to the car park when using our Short Stay North car park.

All of our entry barriers are expected to recognised your vehicle registration and link to your pre booking. We’re sorry this hasn’t been what you’ve experienced and for the worry this caused while you were away.

I'm also sorry to hear you found our signage directing customers towards the car park to be appalling.

We recognise signage is important for all customers trying to reach our Short Stay car park and the signs we display need to be clear so customers can know where they need to go, and how to get there. We’re sorry to hear the signage hasn’t been clear during your recent visit to Gatwick and for the impact this has had on your journey.

Should you wish to discuss this further our Customer Services Team will be more than happy to help, please email parking.services@gatwickairport.com or call 0330 333 9268.

Competitively priced parking within a few minutes walk from the terminal.

Car park is easy to find and the price was competitive. It's great to be able to park in the short stay when your flights are very late as it saves the wait for the bus. Also. pretty much all under cover.

I would like to see some sort of information about how many parking spaces are available in each car park on entry.
