    Manchester airport parking

    We have a 1 week holiday in Aug. leaving from T3 and returning to T1. Looking for advice on options from those in the know please. Don’t want to use any that take your car to a field miles away! The wife has a blue light card if that helps? Thanks

    We use Oak Tree Farm. A lovely, friendly couple who have parking available in Styal.
    You park there, they drop and pick you up, your car is parked by them but securely on site and price is reasonable.
    They are busy a lot of the time but that is not to say they will turn new custom away.

    Most of them remove your vehicle to another site...whether it's a field or what - does it matter ?
    They bring it back to you when you need it.
    Plan B is to park up in an authorised pre-booked fenced off area and get the shuttle bus to the terminal.

    Enjoy your holiday

    There's a T1 and T3 midstay we used a couple of weeks ago. About half of it is covered.

    5ish min walk to T1, booked via Holiday extras

    We used the official 'meet and greet' service for 2 weeks away. It couldn't have been easier with no hassle. Price wasn't too bad either.

    Last year I got into the T2 multi story which was great, this year it was fully booked and booked Jetpark 3, fully secure access controlled and you have your keys so nobody can take it for a jolly, bus takes about 15 mins to all the terminals, just remember the bus stop number in the car park as there are lots, one tip is the further away from the entrance the more parking spaces there are, the bus goes all the way round it so you’ll still only have to walk about 50 yards to a bus stop.

    APH every time. They do a wide range of options.

    Quite a few years ago I parked furthest away and a nice Mercedes went closest to the terminal entrance. By the time I walked to the terminal entrance, the Mercedes was still trying to park. Hopefully he has found a space.

    This is the one you want . Car stays where it is and both terminals are less than a three or four minute walk . Get it booked as early as you can for the best price as this one goes quite quickly . Other than that the T 1 multi storey is the next best option .
    Meet and Greet is excellent but can be expensive . They do keep your car on site . I think they park it on the top of the T1 multi storey .

    We used the airport parking when we had a high vehicle which needed to go under the 2.3m barriers.
    The furthest car park away has no height restriction, and is only a short drive on the bus (compared to Heathrow)

    Good prices, secure parking, frequent bus pick-ups, no hassle.

    Another vote for Jetpark3.
    Always use it when flying from Manc.
    Competitive and hassle free.
