Shuttle Economy 1 features an Automatic Number Plate Recognition system for a more hassle-free entry and exit.

arrival

This car park has an Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system, so it is essential to enter the correct vehicle registration when making your booking.

Upon arrival at the car park, pull up to the entry barrier and your number plate will be automatically scanned. Take the ticket that is issued and keep it safe, as you will need it upon your return.

If a ticket is not automatically issued, please press the 'Assistance' button and explain to the attendant that your vehicle was not recognised. You will need to confirm your booking details, including your car registration, and a ticket will then be issued which you shoudl take with you. We recommend taking a copy of your printed booking confirmation in case this happens.

departure

Collect your vehicle and drive to the exit barrier. Insert the ticket you were issued upon entry and the barrier will raise automatically.

If the barrier does not raise, press the intercom button and quote your booking reference.

The bus back to the car park on our return from holiday was a complete waste of time. Believe or not there was nowhere to put your suitcases. I had to sit with mine on my lap. Date of return was 14 Oct 11 at 1330 hrs.

Everything went ok with the number plate recognition, this time!!! The only 2 gripes i have are when you arrive back at East Midlands and go to the stops at the back of the Spar you don't know where to stand, needs some signs and my other one is when we got on the bus to go down to the airport there were people on the bus going back to the car park as well as going to the airport. It was havoc until the people were all off.

We had to wait for the "next bus" as the service was so slow one bus was full and the next bus took more than 15 minutes to arrive. Very disappointing in comparison with other airports and costs.

We got parked straight away and straight on to the shuttle bus, which was also ready and waiting for us when we arrived back at the airport. Fast, easy and convenient...couldn't fault it.
