The vast majority of people who are flying to another country decide to drive to the airport. At Luton airport this is certainly the case. The main issue with Luton is the location. Unlike many of the other airports in the London area, Luton airport isn’t easily accessible by public transport. There are trains and buses running to it, but whilst that may be useful for those based around London, for people travelling from other parts of the country it is unnecessary hassle and an expense that is not welcome – especially in this age of recession where budget holidays are more popular than ever!

In terms of cost, parking at Luton airport is much cheaper than any other method if you aren’t local. If you are using public transport, both when you arrive and when you leave, then you have to get a train into London and then back home. This can be as much as £150 which is a lot to be forking out for the hassle that you will have (to be reliant upon British public transport is something to be advised against!). More inventive ways of getting to the airport in Luton include getting a flight down from a more local airport, but this is too expensive for the majority of people who are flying out. The cheapest and easiest option is definitely to drive to the airport and park. For only £10 per day, you are not reliant on the transport services and can feel much less stressed when you’re trying to arrive for check in.
