About us

Established in 1980, APH (Airport Parking and Hotels) is a family-owned and operated business specialising in providing airport parking and airport hotels to UK travellers. In addition to our own car parks at Gatwick and Manchester airports, we also provide airport parking at all other major UK airports as well as Southampton and Dover Ports.

Today, APH also offers a wide range of airport hotels and lounges along with travel extras such as travel insurance, car hire, holiday transfers and travel cash.

Customer satisfaction

With 38 years' experience in the airport parking business, APH is focused on providing the highest standards of customer service. Every customer who books through the APH website or call centre receives an independent customer satisfaction survey to help us continually monitor approval ratings for all airport parking and hotel products we offer - and help build an even better service for all.
