“Can understand why price lower than competitors. Not easy to find site as roads being worse than any possible potholes. Not clearly marked and site basic. Bus stops not near enough to amount of spaces Buses are not suitable or geared to handle suitcases if half full. No assistance by drivers in helping to board buses with suitcases..
Lots to learn from your competitors at Glasgow Airport. Very disappointed in both Car Park as well as Edinburgh Airport in general.
I am an experienced traveller and have travelled before from Edinburgh. They say things get better with age, unfortunately this does not apply to both my experience at Plane Parking or Edinburgh Airport. Disgraceful to think this is our Capital cities welcome to both foreign visitors as well as the Scottish travellers.”

“The Terminal Surface car park is increasingly busy and there are a) too few disabled parking spaces and b) non-disabled drivers selfishly park in disabled spaces”
“Sunday afternoon to Friday morning £130. Very expensive, my plane got delayed missed a connection arrived 8 hrs late and I've to be charged again. Won't use again.”

“You need to get proper luggage buses where you can store cases safely. There is nowhere to put cases! We had a bus full with young children in prams and children standing with heavy cases flying everywhere! The aisle was blocked with cases so some people couldn’t get off at their desired stop to collect car. This type of parking should be advertised as small cabin bags only until you get a bus that’s fit for storing larger hold bags. The price of it is great for families on a budget however it’s unsafe to have cases flying about with young children.”
Hello,
Thank you for your review.
I am sorry to hear you never had a seamless experience with us, we will raise this with the relevant department to look into this,
We hope you have a more positive travel experience in the future.

“As usual, your camera has misread my number plate, and I had to go into your office to get it changed and amended! Edinburgh Airport car park is the only one with this sub optimal system.”
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. I understand the frustration that it causes however I'm glad you managed to get it sorted at the time.
Kind regards,

“Upon exiting the car park, we inserted the parking ticket into the machine and it said we owed £160 for the duration of our stay. However, we had prepaid when we completed the booking and had to phone a member of staff via the intercom system. This shouldn’t happen and the cameras should automatically recognise the vehicle’s registration number.”

“Anpr for the Multi story clearly wasn't working as the barrier demanded £70 on exit. Thankfully the help button on barrier got me someone who could fix it for me.”

“Airport relatively easy to find , medium car park found with less ease. No directions/signs or pavements to hotels from airport car park .
Staff helpful at Swiss airline on check in.
Return flight into Edinburgh we waited 45 minutes for baggage with no information. No other flights in or out at this time , so this came across as very inefficient .”
Thank you for your review. I appreciate the frustration that can be caused by baggage waits, and this is clearly not the experience we want passengers to have. It’s important to note that the transportation and delivery of baggage is the responsibility of handling agents, and these companies are contracted by airlines to fulfil this role. This is not something the airport itself has direct involvement in. This is not us passing the buck, or shifting the blame elsewhere, but just the way the process works. It’s important we provide this context to help you understand the roles and responsibilities.

“When entering the carpark out registration was jot correctly recorded, therefore when exiting we were initially requested to pay over £200 for 1 weeks stay and we have pre booked.
We then had to call to alow the barriers to open.”

“I (and others) booked the mid term car park for 0500 entry. The entrance was barred with Cones and Road Closed sign. We had to hot tail it to the long term car park. No refund offered when leaving it.”

“Hard to find an empty space and had to drive around for a while. Quite a long walk from the far corner of the car park to the terminal and the airport has culled the transfer buses they used to have to save money. On exit the barrier would not recognise my booking.”
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.
Our long stay shuttle bus was suspended in 2020 and the car park is an approximate 12 minute walk to the terminal. The long stay car park is marketed as a facility that does not have a shuttle bus and this is confirmed on our website and booking confirmations.

“As a regular customer who usually parks in the multi storey car park, I was appalled to see the charges being levied by booking late. I had booked a very last minute holiday for my wife to help get over some serious stress for us both over the last 18 months. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect the cost of accesssing our usual parking would rise by more than 100% over what I usually pay which is not cheap. I ended up parking in the terminal parking which still cost £155 for seven days. I thought this was excessive but given the time of flights etc decided to bite the bullet. Typically I could not find any discount codes to alleviate some of the costs. I think it is time that you tried to look after your regular customers by offering discounts once registration numbers are entered into your systems. It is not always possible to book well in advance to access more reasonable charges.”
Thank you for your review,
We always encourage passengers to pre-book parking. We offer car parking pricing for 2 years in advance for different lengths of stay. Our pricing is dynamic and continually changes based on many different factors such as demand, occupancy and lead time making it possible for the pricing to change from booking to booking however, we offer competitive pricing against other providers.

“There weren't enough spaces for all the cars parked there. Some cars were parked double yellow lines. Quite stressful if you can't find anywhere to leave your car right before your flight!”

“Since you used a rapid charger, my car was only charged to 80%, which was not enough charge to take me home. I had considerable inconvenience because of this. If you use a rapid charger, someone would need to change the charge setting in my vehicle once 80% have been reached, so the car can be charged further to 100%. Alternatively, you can use a standard charger to charge to 100% in one charge.”

“Generally a great stay, very easy to use and takes no time to get to security and in that respect I couldn't complain nor recommend any higher. The major issue for me was that when I got home after having the car in the Parking for 1 week I noticed a lot of scratches on the paintwork of my drivers side door, which I need to have fixed. These scratches happened whilst the car was parked at the Edinburgh Airport Parking facility.”
“For the nth time the ticket, though well preserved, could not be read and it was somehow assumed I’d not pre booked for a 9 day stay. Was within stated hours! Frustrating end after a litany of late planes cancelled flights ……”

“On arrival at 4.00 a.m. on Monday 3rd June the number recognition was not working, and we had to take a ticket to get in. When we came home yesterday 14th June, the machine on exit would not recognise our ticket. This then involved using the intercom to get the barrier raised. What is the point of having all this technology if it does not work?. I use this facility 3 times a year, and the last two times have been a problem. The prebook price is fair, and the facility is an easy walk from the check in desks, most of it covered.”
