Heathrow onsite parking seemed a little pricey when i checked
Has anyone used any of these, They are in price order
Heathrow Park and Ride T1,T2,T3,T4,T5
Express Park and Ride T1,T2,T3,T4,T5
Someone else is driving but ill doubt they'll go for Meet and great , even though ive had no issues in the past

POD parking has been the best compromise in the past, if the terminal suits you; less that short stay but a two minute pod ride directly into the terminal.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

There's Holiday Extra's Purple Parking which is on Bath Road close to terminal 2, right next to a Premier Inn for those who like to come the night before.

I've found NCP Flightpath good in the past for T2. generally one of the cheapest plus TopCashback making it cheaper again.

I've used Heathrow Long Stay T2 a couple of times. It can take a while to find a space, but you keep your the keys to your car and the buses are regular. I'd happily use it again. (It looks like the price for a week has doubled since when I last use it though!)

Have got a room booked at the premier inn on bath road and apparently they have a deal with holiday extras for airport parking which gives me a price of £53 for purple parking T2.

@wasley, which did you choose in the end?
I had booked the cheap Meet&Greet but then cancelled when I saw that it was actually at T2/3 despite claiming to be T5, so I wouldn't be saving time or game for an early check in at T5.
Apparently the Pods aren't running (according to their website) so I don't see that there's any difference between that and a regular long stay shuttle bus.

I booked the Long Stay at Heathrow for £92 as there are 4 of us only £23 each and saved a lot of faff.

Is that the official parking? You don’t even need to cancel - just adjust arrival time slightly earlier and it should trigger a refund

Just tried it and didn't even have to amend the times , it showed the 6 parking options and i just re-selected the Long stay and it issued a refund

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

@wasley, excellent. I found this one time when I had gone in to make the booking a bit earlier as had decided wanted to allow more time…. It did it triggered a refund and then spent ages checking everything as was convinced I had accidentally reduced the number of days!

Top tip! I just changed the arrival time from 6am to 5am (which I was thinking doing anyway) and saved £8. Thanks very much
