If you have booked a holiday aboard then you will need to consider hoe you are going to get to and from the airport. You may not live too far away and decide that a taxi is the best option or you may want to travel a day early and stay at one of the many hotels that offer a drop off service. If you want to get dropped off on the day then you should check which car park to go on and how much it will cost. Some of the carparks are extortionate and cost as much as £5 for five mins. These are the ones that are normally closest to the terminal and easiest for you to get in to the airport. If you don’t mind walking a little way then you could go to one of the carparks that offers a longer stay option for a lot less money.
Once you have arrange for someone to pick you up or drop you off at the airport you will need to keep checking flight times to ensure that you are not going to be delayed. Most airlines have websites or apps where you can track the progress of the flight even when it is already on route and find out if it will arrive on time. When picking someone up, ideally you do not want to enter the car park until your passengers have left the plane and collected their luggage as this can very easily add 30 mins on to your wait which can work out expensive.
