As the Premier Inn at Stansted is so close to the long stay car park, you can choose a room and parking package when you book. Whilst youre staying at the hotel, your car can remain on site, and all you have to do is make the short drive to the official car park when youve checked out in the morning. Your car will then be completely secure until you get back, as the car park has CCTV coverage and regular patrols.
When you book your room and parking, make sure to give your registration number, as the car park uses automatic number plate recognition to validate your parking. On your arrival at the hotel, just park up and check in.
On the day of your flight, check out and take your car over to the long stay car park. The entry barrier will lift automatically when it recognises your number plate, and itll provide a ticket with your booking reference that you need to keep hold of. Park up in any available space, and make your way to the bus stop to catch the shuttle. Disabled drivers can use one of the 130 Blue Bay spaces in Zone Q.
When you get back, simply hop on the shuttle back to the car park and drive home. Put the ticket with your booking reference in at the electronic barrier when you exit, and itll lift automatically. Extra days of parking will be charged at the car park, at the drive-up price of £15 per day or part thereof.
A frequent shuttle bus runs between the long stay car park and the airport terminal. Its the ideal option 24-hour trips, completely free of charge, and it only takes 10-15 minutes each way. The bus leaves both the car park and the terminal roughly every 20 minutes, so youll have plenty of time to make your flight.
