Luton Airparks Procedures

Arrival and departure procedures and car park details

Arrival Procedures

Checking your car in at Airparks Luton takes just seconds. The site was revamped in June 2011 and fitted with sophisticated new machines which take care of the whole process in the blink of an eye. All you'll need is a copy of your booking confirmation.
Drive into the car park - the barrier will open automatically - and park in one of the numbered arrivals lanes. Make a note of the lane number. Then unload your luggage and make your way into the check-in building in front of you. Head to one of the machines and follow the instructions. In a nutshell, you'll just need to scan the barcode on your booking confirmation, and if you gave us all your details when you booked, the whole process should take about a minute.
Airparks parks your car for you, so you leave your car key with them. The machine will give you a key tag, which you'll need to attach to your car key, and a ticket so you can collect your key when you come back. Once you've put the key tag on your key, you just need to drop it in the blue box to the right of the check-in building, in the slot for your lane number. And that's it - you're ready to hop on the transfer bus and head to the terminal. If there isn't a bus there, there's a big heated shelter with plenty of seats to the right of the check-in building.
Your car key is the only one you need to leave with Airparks, so it's a good idea to take all your other keys off your keyring before you leave home.

Departure Procedures

The transfer bus will bring you back to the car park. You'll need to come out of the arrivals hall, turn left and go past the departures hall and the taxi ranks, then cross the road and wait at bus stop 12.
When you get back to the car park, make your way to the check-out building. Go up to one of the machines and scan the barcode on your key collection ticket. A map of the car park will come up, showing you where your car is, and you'll get your keys back. This should take a few seconds. Then you can collect your car and set off home. At the barrier, you'll need to scan the barcode on your key collection ticket again to get out.
Again, if you have any problems, just press the assistance button and a member of staff will come and help you.
Of course, if you want to be on the road even more quickly, Airparks offers a Return Greet package where your car is brought to the terminal for you, so you can head straight home. You can choose this option either when you make your booking, or at the car park when you're checking in.
If you're going to come back early, please let Airparks know, if you can.
