Verified bookings only. Reviews cover the operator's car park, not Park4Travels.
Handy and hassle free
Used the park and ride at Manchester. The bus came promptly both ways and the whole thing was stress free after a long flight. Good value for the money.

About Manchester
The UK's third-busiest airport and the largest outside London.
Manchester is the gateway airport for the North of England and one of the few outside London with a sizeable long-haul network. It handles around 32 million passengers a year out of two operational terminals, Terminal 2 (the recently-expanded main building) and Terminal 3.
Terminal 1 mostly closed in November 2025 as part of the airport's multi-billion-pound expansion, with operations consolidated into the expanded T2. The complex now handles all main carriers: British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, Emirates, Singapore Airlines, Cathay Pacific, Jet2, Ryanair, easyJet and TUI alongside dozens of regional and seasonal operators.
Manchester's parking landscape is unusually broad. The site sits in a triangle bounded by the M56, M6 and the A538, with plenty of room for off-airport compounds in Wythenshawe, Heald Green and Hale Barns.
Getting to MAN
By road
M56 junction 5 leads straight to the airport. From Manchester city centre, allow 25 minutes off-peak; from Liverpool, 45 minutes; from Leeds, around 90 minutes via the M62/M60.
By rail
Manchester Airport station is connected to all three terminals by a covered moving walkway. Direct services run to Manchester Piccadilly (15-20 minutes), and longer-distance routes connect Liverpool, Leeds, Sheffield, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Penzance.
By bus / coach
National Express runs from across the UK direct to the Ground Transport Interchange. Local Stagecoach services connect with Wythenshawe, Stockport and Manchester.
Also worth knowing
The Metrolink tram serves the airport from Manchester city centre via Wythenshawe, slower than the train but cheaper.
The parking landscape
How parking works at Manchester
Manchester operates official Multi-Storey, Mid-Stay, Long Stay and JetParks lots. The Multi-Storey is attached to T2; Mid-Stay is a short walk; Long Stay and JetParks (the lower-cost long-stay option) are 5-10 minutes by free shuttle.
Off-airport operators are concentrated to the south and east in Heald Green, Wythenshawe and Hale, with a smaller cluster to the west near Hale Barns. Many shuttle every 7-10 minutes during the day; meet-and-greet operators bring your car directly to either terminal forecourt.
Pro tips
Tips travellers wish they'd known
- JetParks 1, 2 and 3 are the cheapest official options, book directly, they're never sold via aggregators.
- Independent meet-and-greet sites in Heald Green tend to undercut the airport-operated equivalents by 25-40%.
- Returning late at night? Check shuttle hours, some park-and-ride operators have reduced overnight service.
- The covered walkway from rail station to terminals takes 5-10 minutes, factor it into your schedule.
- Terminal drop-off costs £5.50 for up to 5 minutes, £6.50 for up to 10 and £25 for up to 30 (30-minute maximum, no free period). It's barrierless ANPR, so pay online by midnight the next day, or use the free drop-off on Thorley Lane opposite JetParks 1, with a shuttle bus to the terminals.
