APH has announced a new policy for most of the airport car parks that they sell: If you have to cancel anytime up to the day before you are due to depart for your holiday due to volcanic ash, you should be able to obtain a full refund. (Minus any credit card fee, of course) This is a 'lifesaver' of an idea, as it means you can then use the money 'freed up' as it were to make a new booking.

Of course, you probably already know about the fantastically helpful pre-booking deals that APH offers its customers. APH would like to remind you that these discounts are still available and that you can make significant savings on the 'turn up and park' rates. Should you have to cancel on the day, you can do this right up until your booked arrival time at the car park. You will be able to transfer the money that you paid for the booking and use it against any future booking through APH for another car park during the next six months.

Of course, should you need to cancel for reasons other than...]]> http://www.aph.com/news/airport_security/aph_looking_after_your_interests_20613595.htm Thu, 13 May 2010 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.aph.com/news/airport_security/aph_looking_after_your_interests_20613595.htm
APH regularly puts a team in and this year will be no exception. A team made up from the staff who are more usually found helping you arrange your airport parking will don their cycling helmets in order to raise much-needed funds for the sterling work of the British Heart Foundation.

It is reputedly the UK's largest charity bike ride and an amazing 27,000 riders are expected to cycle the beautiful route through the Garden of England between London and Brighton on the Kent coast. The British Heart Foundation are aiming to raise over £4.3 million to continue their pioneering research and also provide backing and support to heart patients and, equally important, their families.

 As we say, value for money still appears to be a top consideration, as 79% say that price is one of the most important factors when they look to book a holiday. And is an even more important factor than the likely weather and the facilities at the destination.

The research (amongst 2,000 adults) looked at holiday budgets. At the start of 2010 apparently we looked at spending £1,014 per person on their main family holiday. But in January 2011 this had fallen to £829. This figure has started to rise and now stands at £837. Londoners look to spend the most (£988) bit those in the West Midlands are looking to book their holidays on a tighter budget at £746.The study also includes a Holiday Spending Money Index, which indicated that the weekly spending levels (that's not including flights and accommodation) are down some 3%...]]> http://www.aph.com/news/airport_security/british_holiday_confidence_returns_57904380.htm Fri, 10 Jun 2011 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.aph.com/news/airport_security/british_holiday_confidence_returns_57904380.htm Liverpool.

It's also becoming a favoured destination because there's something for just about everyone who visits Tallinn.
