Arrival Procedure
This car park operates an Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system, so it is essential that you enter the correct vehicle registration when making your booking. Please bring your printed booking confirmation to the car park. Drive up to the entry barrier and wait 15 seconds while your vehicle registration number is read. A ticket will be printed showing your booking reference and the barrier will lift automatically. If you are not issued a ticket within 15 seconds, press the button for a ticket. Park your vehicle and board a transfer bus to the airport.
Departure Procedure
Once you have collected your vehicle, drive to the exit barrier. Insert the ticket you were issued upon entering the car park and the barrier will lift. If you have any problems, or if you had to press the button for a ticket upon entering, show your booking confirmation and parking ticket to a parking attendant, or press the call button for help. DO NOT insert a credit/debit card at the exit barrier as you will be charged again at the standard gate rate.

Stayed here for one day whilst going to Sweden. Service was really good - frequent transfers went to and from the terminal building - recommended.
USed it for weekend away (Fri to Sunday). Really excellent.No need to go to a payment machine or paystation as it uses automatic numberplate recognitiion. Just drove in and out without any hassle. Could book this on the BAA website though as it seemed my stay was too short for them therefore they wanted to charge me much more for the short stay or valet services. Book it through this website though and it is available.
Vehicle Number Plate Recognition system did not work at arrival. This caused a degree of confusion at departure as initially was asked for reference number (which was in boot as instructions did not indicate that ref No. was required for exit). Eventually the staff member searched on registration number. At the end of a holiday the last thing you want is hasasle at the car park
I was pleased with the proxomity of the car park to the airport and extremely pleased with the punctuality of the bus service both to and from the facilty. I will certainly be using the car park again in the future and am happy to provide this review
unfortunatly when i inserted my pre paid ticked to exit the car park it was rejected and i had to reverse out and resolve with the ticket master. Similar occurance on a previous visit, so room to improve here.
Leaving the carpark I was asked to pay again before the barrier opened. With it being late, cold and sleat falling I was disappointed that there was this problem which delayed my onward journey becasue I had to speak to an operator and then try and retrieve the information from my bag, etc.
Easy to book on line, very good value. Well sign posted, easy access, transfer buses waiting, will definitely use again.
The mid term carpark was cheaper than the long stay and being much closer we were happy to book.
It was a delight to have the transfer coach waiting when we exited the airport building.
As I booked online they had my Reg No. already so I just drove up to the ticket dispenser, took the ticket, found a parking space, of which there were plenty. Parked, walked a very short distance to the bus stop, didn't have to wait for the bus. Trip to the airport took a few minutes, got off and started our holiday. When we returned, waited at the bus stop for a short while, got on, got off again at the same stop in the car park, walked short distance to our car, drove to the exit, put ticket in machine and off we went. Would definately use this car park again!!
Only took a couple of seconds for the vehicle registration to be read and the ticket issued. Unfortunately due to the lack of people at this time of year the buses waited for quite some time before proceeding out of and back into the car park. Bus driver however was friendly and presentable. Cost was very good and I will continue to use your website in future.
I am not sure why you ask about parking staff; the only staff one meets are the shuttle bus drivers. This is a highly automated, convenient parking arrangement that provides very good value for money.
Unfortunately the ANPR wasn't working but still easy to use as on way out showed receipt and was let out. Don't know what would have happened if I didn't have a copy of my receipt though?
Parking easy, transfers frequent and straightforward. Had pre-booked and paid our parking when Ryanair changed our flight by a day (what a surprise!). Went to customer service desk on exit at the staff couldn't have been more helpful - gave us the pre-booked rate rather than the daily rate. For this level of customer care alone we will choose to use Mid Stay Parking next time we fly.
Good service, easy to find, coaches clean and on time, drop off/ pick up right outside the airport.
This is the second time I have used Mid stay at Stansted and was surprised to see the increase in cost. a 3 day stay was one fifth of what I pay at Heathrow for a 6 week stay! I guess there is not the competition, although I would have thought that land & wages are lower in Essex. I chose midstay over long stay paying an extra 16.00 for a speedier transfer. However there were 2 buses for the long stay waiting on my return before the midstay bus appeared and waited. I would use the service again as there is no similar competition for this service. reliable, secure but not good value.
We found the car parking easy and not too far from the airport as this was what we were hoping for, as our flight was extremely early. All in all it wasn't the cheapest but good value for money.
We didn't realise til we got to car for return journey that the back of the ticket has somewhere to write the car park letter & bus stop number but we remembered anyway & it was all very efficient & hassle-free! Just what you need & the car was perfectly safe, the drivers were courteous & helpful. Thank you!
Paying to park your car is a very annoying aspect of any trip from an airport. This was the cheapest place I could find but that doesn't make it a great experience.
The system is good while the machinery at the gate works, a nightmare when it fails, thankfully all was well this time. Staff very friendly and polite when I reported the vehicle next to mine had a window fully open but was surprised when I was told they are unable to either secure or weather-proof the car, once again health and safety/litigation over-rules common sense.
