“Very smooth service – took our keys, checked us in, and put us on the shuttle to the terminal. When we landed, the bus came to collect us. Bus drivers were so kind too. Would definitely use APH again.” – Alia Kambi
“Reasonable price, easy to find, staffed by friendly people. Pulled up right outside the office, handed in my key, and got straight on the bus. The bus driver kindly loaded our heavier cases. Even in the early hours, staff greeted us with smiles.” – Richard B

I’ve chosen APH Park and Ride for every one of my trips for years now — more than 20 visits, and it has never let me down. It offers fantastic value for money — easily the best prices around, with no hidden costs at all.
The location is perfect: very close to the airport, so you never waste time travelling. The shuttle bus service is brilliant — always clean, punctual, and runs frequently, so you’re never left waiting around. Everything is simple and stress‑free: easy to find, easy to park, and I always feel completely confident leaving my car there.
Reliable, great service, great prices — I wouldn’t use anywhere else! I recommend it to everyone. ✅🚗✈️
We have always found them to be excellent value for money!
I would personally like to thank Darren one of the drivers as I had inadvertently left my mobile phone in my car which was parked in the self park carpark.
Darren took my keys and personally got my mobile phone and arranged for a colleague to drop my phone and keys to me at the North Terminal.
Darren's excellent customer service ensured that we didn't miss our flight.
I will always recommend APH!
Thank you Darren!
Everything is very efficient, well organised and clearly well thought out. From the booking process through to dropping off and collecting the vehicle, the whole experience runs smoothly and gives confidence that things are being managed properly.
What stands out most, however, is the staff. Every member of staff I've interacted with has been courteous, professional and respectful. That might sound like a simple thing, but it makes a huge difference to the overall customer experience, particularly when you're travelling and want things to be as stress-free as possible.
It's clear that there are good systems in place, but it's also clear that the people working there care about delivering a good service. The combination of efficiency and genuinely good customer service is what keeps me coming back.
Credit should go to whoever is leading and managing the business, as well as to the staff on the ground who deliver the experience day in, day out. Their efforts are noticeable and appreciated.
I've used APH several times and wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for reliable, well-run airport parking with excellent customer service.
On return only had to wait about 10 mins for pick up. Both drivers were excellent but special mention to the return driver. He was polite, cheerful and helped everyone with bags. Despite it being 11pm he even gave a rendition of "wheels on the bus" for a young kid at the front.
The transfer bus service was excellent too. Unlike Purple Parking that we used last year, the bus drivers at APH loaded and unloaded all of our cases for us which was massively appreciated after a long journey. Every driver we came across was really friendly, chatty, and helpful, and they also gave very clear directions which made everything even easier.
Overall, a fantastic experience and one of the best airport parking services we have used. We would strongly recommend APH Gatwick to anyone travelling from Gatwick and we will definitely be using them again next year.
