It's that time of year again when millions of Brits pack their suitcases and rush to airports across the country in search of new and exotic destinations.
However, one of the biggest challenges awaiting travellers is the issue of parking, as most of us rely on our cars when trying to get to our terminals.
If you're looking for a place to park, but don't know if you can book a space on the day, here is everything you need to know.
Can you book airport parking on the day of your flight?
However, it may be wise to book ahead to ensure you get a space and avoid any potential stress on the day of your departure.
When should you book airport parking?
According to Flightright, booking a parking space in advance is a "practical" and "sensible" way to make your journey less stressful.
By doing this, there will be plenty of availability, saving time on the day of your flight, as well as money.
There is no exact time you should book your airport parking, but ideally, you would want to do this as soon as possible.
In peak times, such as during the summer, three months in advance may be necessary.
