How does Park and Ride at Leeds Bradford work?
Park and Ride Leeds Bradford Airport gives you a quick and easy way to park your car for your upcoming trip. There are two types of Park and Ride services. In the first you will need to drop-off your car in an arrival area, check-in at reception and hand over your key. In the second, a self-park service, you will need to drive up to a barrier with a number plate recognition system which will read your plate and let you in. You will then need to find your own space before heading for the shuttle. With this sort of the service, you can keep your car key.
Once you are all parked up, instead of needing to make a long walk to the terminal after parking, you can simply catch the free shuttle bus service. The bus drops you off outside the terminal entrance, and once you return there’ll be another bus to take you back to where you parked your car. LBA Airport Park and Ride is one of the best value parking services available so it’s perfect if you’re looking to save costs on your trip. It’s also great for long term parking, if you’re travelling with luggage or if you’d just like to take some of the stress out of your journey!
