Find the best deals in Heathrow Airport

There are long stay car parks located near to each of the terminals at LHR and they're very easy to use. Book ahead of time and your car registration will automatically be recognised at the entry barrier. You'll then grab your ticket and proceed to the zone indicated. Once you've parked safely, grabbed your bags and locked up, hop on a shuttlebus to your terminal — they run every 10-15 minutes and take between 5-20 minutes journey time, depending on your terminal.

Shuttle buses have free Wi-Fi so you can keep yourself informed and entertained as you ride. And security is paramount in these car parks — you can leave your car here with complete peace of mind if you're in a long stay car park for less than 30 minutes (to drop someone off, for example) it's free and the daily charges are around £30 — but shop around various trusted providers and book early to bag a bargain.

When you return home to collect your car, shuttle bus pick up stops are located in every terminal on the arrivals forecourt. At Terminal 2, look for stop 5/6, Terminal 3, stop 16, Terminal 4, stop 3, and Terminal 5, stop 21. Tell the driver which zone you're parked in when you get on board.
