Summer Special North

Entry Procedure
On arrival, pull up to the barrier and wait up to 10 seconds for the vehicle registration to be scanned and photos to be taken of the vehicle condition. Park the vehicle in one of the arrival lanes and walk to the Summer Special reception building. Please fill in a self-service key label and walk up to the desk where an attendant will ask for the car parking voucher and the vehicle keys which will be exchanged for a receipt. Wait either inside the reception building or just outside at the designated bus stop for the courtesy coach which will take you directly to the North Terminal.

Exit the terminal on the ground floor, turn left and go to the Summer Special bus stop (no. 2) at the far end of the North Terminal forecourt, where a bus will return you to the parking area. Please check the bus is going to the North Terminal Summer Special Car Park when boarding the bus.

Exit Procedure
On arrival at the car park, please proceed to Summer Special reception with the receipt received at the time of vehicle drop off. The vehicle keys will then be returned to you with your vehicle parked in a numbered bay close to reception.
