APH Drop and Go parking at Luton Airport offers a quick and secure way to park your car. Simply drive up to the barrier, which will record the condition of your vehicle for safety and security, before parking in one of the arrival bays. Then, head to the check-in building to check yourself in at one of the check-in machines. Tag your keys with the receipt issued and drop them in the box, leaving them with you to get onto the transfer bus to the terminal to be on your way as quickly as possible.
Collecting your car couldnt be easier, simply catch the transfer bus back to the car park and make your way to the check out shelter to collect your keys. The machine will give you your key back and show you on the screen where your car is.
