How to Beat the Christmas Rush at Heathrow Airport

Airport blogger

Are you planning to visit London for Christmas this year? If you head to Heathrow Airport, you should definitely plan in advance regarding transport at this peak time in the calendar.

London Heathrow Airport is busy all the year round, and especially so during the Christmas period, it can be hard to catch a black cab when you arrive at the airport due to the extreme airport rush, as millions of people visit London during this season. The closing weeks of the year always have maximum passenger traffic at Heathrow airport. Air traffic, human traffic and road traffic make London a very, very busy place during the Christmas Holidays.

Christmas is the most celebrated seasons in London. People visit London on vacation during Christmas for different reasons. They wish to be part of celebrations from Christmas Eve to New Year. And, this is the season when transportation facilities in the city are limited. Pre booking taxis would be a wise plan as public transportation facilities are not available during this season or if they are, they will most certainly be reduced in number. Transportation facilities on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day are limited and only some private transport services offer transfers. Did you know, this year, Christmas Day falls on Weekend! No doubt, transportation in London is going to be a problem if not planned in advance.

With private transport companies that offer 24/7 transfer services, Christmas should go smoothly, but, its always better to be on the safe side and pre book taxis in advance. The cost for transport is always higher during Christmas and the New Year. Some companies charge double while others offer attractive prices during festive seasons. Make sure you plan ahead.

Finding a good company for your travel might look simple; but, it may not be. Its always best to explore a little to have peace of mind.

Ask a few simple questions Q1: is the company licensed? Q2. What is the price for the transfer you need? Q3: Are there any hidden costs?

Whether, its an airport transfer, or you need a transfer to a special Christmas celebration. All destinations and locations are provided for, by many private taxi companies. To travel to your destination safely, it is essential to find companies that engage licensed drivers with good personal standards and experience. Plan in advance and enjoy this Christmas!!!

Exeter International Airport (EXT) operates from one comprehensive terminal which provides ten check-in desks, four gates and two luggage claim belts.

During the past decade I had to catch numerous of flights from Exeter airport. As a business man I use the facility frequently mainly for business trips. As I always arrive at the airport complex by private car it is of great importance to me which parking sites provides the best services. Due to my extensive travelling the past ten years I know by now what to expect from each available parking agency and in general they provide similar and good services. However, the only differences between the various car parks are the locations and parking costs. I also advice that you leave yourself sufficient time to get to the Exeter airport in case of delays as the motorways around the air hub can become extreme busy during rush hours and the busy holiday season.

Exeter Airport boasts four car parks, one for short-terms and the other provide long-stay parking services. The short-stay P1 and the long-stay facility P2 are located nearby the terminal which can easily be reached on foot, while the long-stay parking sites P3 and P4 offer a free passenger transfer service. There are also sufficient spaces available for physically handicapped motorists. The lots are excellently secured, with 24-hour surveillances, bright lighting and CCTV.

There are several ways for paying your car parking rate. Short-duration car park P1 and the long-duration amenity P2 have two opportunities. You can pay at the sites barrier by credit card or in cash and the second option is using a Pay Station, where you also can pay in cash or with your credit card. The two long-stay parking amenities P3 and P4 can be paid for at the car parks barrier or at one of the pay stations.

The best way of arranging your car parking at Exeter Airport is by booking it in advance online. You have the option to reserve parking space at companies such as Exeter Holiday Parking (off airport) and Exeter Parking Unlimited which offer the very convenient Meet and Greet parking service. If you really want to treat yourself than the chauffeured parking service is what you should choose. When you arrive at the airport you just have to telephone Parking Unlimited and inform them about your time of arrival. One of their staff will meet you at the short-term parking facility which is located 20 metres from the airport terminal. Your car will be parked for you at a secured site nearby the airport. Once you return from your trip your vehicle will be driven back to you at the short-term parking lot for immediate departure. You can save yourself a great deal of time by pre-booking through the internet. In addition, these online services below offer discounted parking rates and as we all know that parking your car at Exeter airport is pretty dear, reducing the costs is a real benefit.
