Heathrow airport car parking is to thrill-seekers what a foreign foods bonanza is to a “foodie”. Several agencies appear to offer great deals on parking services, complete with a shuttle service that will take the motorist from their vehicle to the airport’s front doors for a small fee. Shuttles, at Heathrow, are nearly a compulsory service as the expedition from one’s car spot to the airport is generally akin to a trek across the Antarctic in sheer depth and adventurous potential.

Now, it should be acknowledged that the Heathrow secured airport car park is far from a barren, icy wasteland. It is, however, a quite audacious place with many a vehicle bustling about fighting the good fight for parking spots and walking about in such a place can be quite daunting, even for the most experienced of airport trekker. This is why the shuttle is such an important service for airport travellers.

The Heathrow airport website offers travellers many options in terms of parking their cars in the Heathrow airport car park area. For a long stay, they offer the car parking lot express shuttles that come in the form of a courtesy bus which departs in ten minute intervals. The journey time of the courtesy bus is a full twenty minutes, so it is logical to induce that there are several courtesy buses scurrying around the Heathrow parking lot picking up various passengers from their cars or standard waiting outlets.

For business parking, there is a service known as the “Pink Elephant”. The Pink Elephant secured parking at Heathrow airport is marked by several Pink Elephant signs that direct the traveller to the designated spots. From there, there are transfers and shuttles that whisk the passengers to their destinations quickly. There is also a twenty four hour, seven days a week secured security outlet watching over the Pink Elephant parking area.
