Airport parking, find the low cost alternative


Parking at the airport, which alternative to choose for any type of trip: from short to long. The post with Parkos advice and solutions: a valid system for knowing and comparing the various offers in detail.

When you start plan a trip, one of the costs to be taken into account is precisely that of the journey to the airport. Not all of us are lucky enough to live in cities with large airports. Especially for long-haul travel, you often have to travel several kilometers before arriving at international airports to depart from.

Airport parking: the first expense to consider

This is often considered the first travel expense. First in the sense of timing, not cost, but still an important expense if we think about the number of days we will leave our car in a guarded parking lot. Maybe indoors near the departure and arrival airport of our trip. How to find the best alternative for us? The easiest answer is: comparing the different parking lots which are located near the airport and especially comparing their services.



Parkos is the site that offers this comparison for free on about 64 Italian car parks and near 18 different airports, I used it to park in Fiumicino. Parkos allows you to book through its platform the best parking space for our travel needs.

Travel with children

Those traveling with children, for a shorter or longer stay, may have some needs that other travelers do not have. For example the car valet service which allows travelers to arrive by car in front of the airport entrance and leave their car with a car service employee of the chosen car park. This allows the family to calmly unload their luggage, including strollers and car seats, without too much effort. In addition, this allows you to waste less time on transfers that usually accompany those who leave the car in a parking lot away from the airport and have to take a shuttle. Another useful service for families is the internal washing of the machine while you are away (but also outside). The cost is generally less than the amount we are used to spending when we take our car to wash. On the way back, finding a clean car for the journey home is a plus that is sometimes nice to indulge in.

Parking at the airport without car valet

Traveling on long weekends

Those who travel often on weekends, perhaps booking trips from Thursday or Friday to Sunday, prefer to save something to enjoy a journey richer in experiences. In this case you can choose a parking without the car valet action but with shuttle service to the airport. If the suitcase is not very bulky due to the short stay, getting around will not be difficult. The economic savings of the car park can be used to enjoy a typical dinner in some European capital or a hotel even closer to major attractions.

Travel beyond the week

Those who take one or two trips a year beyond the week, whether they are in resorts on the other side of the world or in chalets below zero, often have a different priority: knowing that their car will not only be safe but will be found kept in a covered parking, away from bad weather and indoors. When you are away from home, thinking that on our return we will find our car ready for the restart, as we had left it is a happy thought that comforts travelers. Those who are used to traveling a lot and for a long time will understand this feeling well.
