“I booked 3 weeks in the Long Stay car park. My flight home was delayed by 24 hours and I had to pay £55 for one additional non-booked day. In Edinburgh city centre, I could park for24 hours for£27. In my view the airport should be cheaper. This is an exorbitant penalty for a traveller when the delay was out of my control.”
Thank you for your review. As is set out in your booking confirmation and on the FAQs section of our website, if you will be delayed outwith the 6 hour grace period then you should make a new booking that starts when your current one ends to cover the additional time in the car park that you require otherwise you will be charged an overstay fee which is charged at the non-booked rate for the car park you are in.

“Easy and convenient drop off, very quick. No complaint here.
Upon return (after an 8 hour flight, 9 hour layover in Germany, and another 2 hour flight to Edinburgh) my car was not ready for me when we exited airport.
I had to wait a further 15/20 minutes while the staff tried to find my keys and find someone to go and collect it.
Also on exiting the car park, a further £6 charge was required before I could leave.”

“When we arrived at the barrier, t
It did not open. Usually, a camera reads the car registration and the barrier lifts to allow access. When it did not open. I pressed the call button and spoke to a rude and unhelpful member of staff. Upon return and attempting to exit the carpark, I put my ticket into the machine at the barrier only to be presented with a bill on screen for £244 dispite having prepaid. Again, I had to press the call button but thankfully the staff member this time was helpful and opened the barrier upon confirmation on my car registration number”
Thank you for your review,
It sounds as though our automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system hasn't registered you upon entry. When this occurs, it means our system doesn't match you to your booking and you are then charged the roll-up rate in error upon exit. This doesn't happen often but when it does, I understand the frustration that it causes however I'm glad you managed to get it sorted at the time.

“Had to change flight near to departure (2 days ahead). When trying to get refund it said to go to your account. On purchasing to parking it does not automatically set you up with an account! I created an account later but this now does not recognise my booking. Frustrated I intended to make a call the next day to correct this but had then fallen within the "24 hour - no refund" timetable. Not impressed.”
“Airport bus is poor in luggage storage space, ticket on departing wrongly demanded £150 payment, staff opened barrier but it was stressful even receiving this erroneous demand.”

“Using the Park and Plane was easy at first, however, my flight back to Edinburgh was cancelled due to strike in Charleroi so I was delayed by another 2 nights, Thursday afternoon was my original flight however it had been moved to Saturday morning.
I needed to sort out my parking; I used the customer service email and I had no response. Once my flight landed at Edinburgh I tried to find help, there was no reception to help,
For what came to my shock £80 pound for two extra days, I had to pay this but I want a refund as this was completely out of my control. Absolutely disgusting.”
Thank you for your review,
I understand the frustration that will have been caused by the flight delay and I’m sorry to hear that your delay resulted in an additional charge at the car park barrier. As advised in our terms and conditions, if you enter or exit out with the grace period, you will be subject to our roll-up rates as the time you have occupied was not pre-planned. The details on what you should do if you are going to exit later than planned can be found in your booking confirmation and on our website.

“Check in seamless, collection - at 1.30am - far from seamless.
Turns out they had ‘misplaced’ my key which meant my car was still at their pound. Add to that indifference from the first person I spoke to followed by what can only be described as passive aggressive from an angry looking middle aged woman who I presume must have been the supervisor (she wasn’t wearing a uniform) who thought it OK to have us stand outside in the cold while she fumbled through a huge pile of keys - would seem this is a common problem.
I thought I was buying a premium service, turns out it was keystone cops. Won’t be back.”

“Issues with the spaces in the long stay carpark urgently needs addressing. Despite pre booking and pre paying the car park as I always have done on this occasion it was impossible to find a space in the car park. Spent 15 minutes driving around looking for a space along with several other vehicles. No wonder cars were parked on the roads in the car park and in any available space where you saw fit to sticker their windows telling them to park between the lines, there were no spaces so people clearly had to leave their cars somewhere! Very poor service in my opinion. I only got a space when one car left and I was lucky enough to be in the row when that happened or someone else who was also driving round and round would have secured it. I appreciate you cannot allocate dedicated spaces to pre booked cars but it is not asking too much to make sure there are sufficient spaces available for us to access. You must surely monitor the spaces available and how many pre booked cars you have arriving so why not have signage advising those not pre booked that when spaces are limited he car park is only available to pre booked cars? Given that you have the registration of the pre booked vehicles this could be monitored at the arrival barrier. Fully recognise that flight delays may prevent some vehicles leaving at their pre arranged times but surely preventing people from driving around aimlessly looking for a space they have technically paid for is better customer service than having cars 'abandoned' across the car park? Not impressed with this visit.”
“I booked three car parking spaces for myself and family from 1st September to the 5th September. Two spaces were booked in the terminal car park and one in the electric fast charge car park. I chose these car parks as they were near the terminal building and we had young children with us. We had an early flight going to Disney/Paris on the 1st and a late return flight on the 5th.
All the car parks were easy to find with plenty of spaces, we found our way into the terminal easily with no problem. However on our return the Fast charge car park had not charged the car for our travel home, we had two young children and a long journey home to the north east of England. Subsequently we had to charge the car in McDonalds at 1.00 in the morning with two young children in tow. Not good!”

“I only rate this parking as a 2* due to the obscene costs you are charging. For me to be on a 5 night holiday and charged £120 for parking is terrible.”
Thank you for your review,

“No spaces available in long stay despite me paying in advance, had to park not in a proper space and then I got the cheek of having a note on my car!! Shouldn’t sell a space if none are available”
Thank you for your review. I’m sorry to hear that you found it difficult to find a space in our car park. If ever faced with the same problem in future, please ring the intercom at the exit barrier and our team will provide a suitable alternative.

“Booking was straight forward, entry to car park too. But on the way out we'd to wait quite a while for the bus, then, after getting my car, I got to the exit, inserted my ticket (paid up front) to be greeted with a demand for an additional £120. I got through on the intercom and this was resolved, but not a nice thing to occur.”
Thank you for your review. The shuttle buses to/from Plane Parking operate approximately every 10-12 minutes however, delays can occur due to issues such as congestion en route to/from the car park. It sounds as though our automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system hasn't registered you upon entry. When this occurs, it means our system doesn't match you to your booking and you are then charged the roll-up rate in error upon exit. I'm glad you managed to get it sorted at the time.

“I have used the terminal parking many times and have recommended it to numerous friends.
However my experience for this trip was seriously stressful. After going through the entrance barrier, I saw several cars going round and round looking for a parking space without success. This has never happened before and after half an hour I was seriously concerned as to what my options were. Decided to look out for someone walking back with luggage and followed them to wait while they loaded their car and left.
Return to pick up car three days later and barrier would not lift, message stating I owed £175!!
Eventually found 📞 logo on stand which was answered after a short time. Again, a wait while details were checked and then all clear.
Really not the standard I had come to expect and feel there must have been some glitch that weekend.”

“I booked the Fast Park service but found the entrance very poorly marked. Staff were helpful once parked up but car was quite far away when we arrived to collect (in the rain, with luggage). Would prefer to book the multi-storey in future.”

“Unfortunately I could not see any clear instructions on how to redeem my pre-booked stay. On the morning of my flight I pushed for a ticket as I could see no other option. When I was leaving, I was shocked to find out I had to pay £120. I reluctantly paid this, but it's left a very sour taste. I thought that the system might be a little more sophisticated and scan my plate, which is why I was asked to submit my reg plate on the pre-booking I made. I have already submitted a contact form regarding this, but I thought I might as well leave a review since you asked in the email. I hope you are able to resolve this for me.”
“Because of a flight delay I was charged 31 pounds extra , surely if it’s not your fault that you are late back some sort of expedition should be in place”
