Here at gosimply.com, we’ve always been aware of the benefits that a relaxing start to your journey can have and we’ve always been keen to provide travellers with as much information as possible for the 100’s of airport parking, airport hotel and airport lounge services available. It’s always nice however when someone else recognises our hard work and the service we provide, as did the ‘Financial Times’ just last week.

Avoid the stress of the airport terminal

In their article, the Financial Times were talking about the various ways in which travellers could lessen the niggles and discomforts that economy flights of 4 hours or more can inflict and, you’ve guessed it, pre-booking an airport lounge was one of those recommendations.

Enjoy The Comfort Of An Airport Lounge

Relax In Style Before Boarding Your Flight

An airport lounge can help you to relax and get into the right frame of mind before you even board the flight. With prices starting from as little as £13.50 per person and inclusive of drinks and snacks, as well as other facilities to help you pass the time in comfort, an airport lounge is a far cry from the hustle and bustle of the main terminal building. As the ‘Financial Times’ so kindly pointed out, this is where “Sites such as ‘gosimply.com’ can help”.

So next time you’re planning a journey, whether for business or pleasure, why not plan ahead and rather than dreading the airport experience, look forward to it as a welcome part of the overall journey plan.

Fire crews were dispatched in the early hours of Sunday and found several cars alight.  The police, however, have said they are not treating the fire as suspicious, and it was believed to have been caused by an electrical fault in one of the cars.

So how will this affect you if you’ll be needing Long Stay parking at Stansted Airport within the next few days?  It remains to be seen what impact this will have on availability of spaces, but we will let our customers know as and when we receive any details.

And remember, we also have Stansted Airport Mid Stay Parking, Orange Park and Ride and a whopping 12 Meet and Greet services to choose from, including Meteor Parking.

Airparks Handforth Dean is closing its doors on 18 June

Any customers who have previously booked their parking at Airparks Handforth Dean will be offered a free upgrade to Securapark or JetParks, both of which are located closer to the airport.  New details and directions to the car parks will be sent to all existing bookings via email.  (Holiday Extras will continue to operate their Airparks Meet & Greet parking service for Manchester Airport.)

As always, your best source for a non-biased airport parking price-comparison service is gosimply.com, where you can choose from 21 different Manchester Airport parking services including Purple Parking Manchester, APH Manchester and the Manchester Airport Multi-Storey Car Park.

Now, I know what you’re thinking.  You’re thinking, “Wow!  Those gosimply folk really know their stuff!”, and you’d be entirely correct, because out of that same Great Commune of Minds came the idea you’re about to hear.

See the car park with Street View at gosimply.com!

Have you ever been trying to find some place you’ve never visited before, and would love to know what it looks like so you can recognise it when you see it?  Would you like to be able to at least get an idea of surrounding landmarks that would help you know when you’re getting close to your destination?

Well, if you’re looking for an airport car park, rejoice!  gosimply.com has now incorporated patented Google Street View technology to let you, dear customer, view the car park of your choice with just a few clicks (and maybe a couple o’ “drags”).

That’s right, you can now view around 70% of the car parks we currently offer using Street View.  (The other 30% don’t have Street View available yet, unfortunately.  We’ll keep an eye on that and let you know.)

So, not only can you now see the entrance of the car park and its surrounding area, but also get an idea of where your vehicle will be stored before you make your booking.  How helpful is that? (Here’s where we’d like you to say “Very!”)

If you don’t mind us tooting our own sousaphone, we might add that we’re the first to offer this, too.  So next time you’re in need of airport parking, visit gosimply.com and take advantage of our Google Street View feature.  Then really push the boat out and treat yourself to a hotdog (we recommend the brown mustard).

Wherever you’re going, gosimply.

Any customers who have pre-booked their parking at Courtlands for after the 1st of January (or any who are set to return after the 4th) will be upgraded to the Long Stay Car Park T1&3, which is located on-airport and features a convenient Automatic Number Plate Recognition system.

Heathrow location closing

Those travellers who are affected by this change will receive notice along with new arrival and departure procedures, and anyone with questions and concerns can write us using our handy contact form.

Although Courtlands at Heathrow is closing, there are plenty more outstanding car parks to choose from.  We recommend the gosimply Award-winning Quality Airport Parking, which is highly-rated by customers who have used their service.  If you prefer to drive straight to the terminal, check out Aardvark Meet and Greet, Meteor Parking or one of the other meet and greet parking services at Heathrow and experience how hassle-free airport parking can be.

New location for Watson's

The new site is just 100 yards down the road from their current location, so you’ll still find them easily using the directions we provide.  If you’ve visited Watson’s Ayr Park before, though,  please make note of this change so you can find the new entrance!

And remember, in addition to the great service provided by Watson’s, we also offer three more options for parking at Prestwick Airport:  North Long Stay Parking, which is just over a mile from the airport, and the on-airport Long and Short Stay Car Parks – both within walking distance of the terminal building.

Both car parks are located on-airport, one serving Terminals 1 and 3 and the other serving Terminal 2.

Whichever terminal you’re flying out of, you can rest assured your vehicle is safe, as each of these Manchester Airport car parks offer the excellent security you would expect from an on-airport parking facility, including security barriers and regular security patrols.

In addition to these new Long Stay car parks, we continue to offer 16 other Manchester Airport parking services, allowing our customers to compare prices on a wide variety of options and helping to ensure they find the best deal available.
