FAQ
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Can I make a booking today to park at the airport today?
|
|
It is possible to book car parking on the day of travel.
|
|
|
|
How far ahead can I book?
|
|
It is possible to book up to 12 months ahead of your travel date
and in doing so you will guarantee your space and obtain the maximum level of advanced
purchase discount. Should your plans change, you can amend or cancel without charge
provided you do so more than 24 hours before the date you are due to enter the car
park.
|
|
|
|
How close to my departure date can I make my car parking booking?
|
|
All of our car parks can be booked before your arrival time at the
car park.
|
|
|
|
Can I cancel or amend my car parking booking if my travel plans
change?
|
|
You can cancel or amend your car parking booking up to 24 hours before
your date of entry into the car park. You will qualify for a full refund, as long
we receive notification of your cancellation in time.
|
|
|
|
How are parking charges calculated?
|
|
Car parks are priced per 24-hour period or part thereof. The number
of 'days' (24-hour periods) charged for when you pre-book is calculated on the basis
of the times you select when making your booking. However, if your actual entry
and exit time changes and as a result your actual time in the car park runs into
another 24-hour period (over and above that booked), you will be liable for an additional
day's charge at the drive-up tariff.
|
|
|
|
How often do car parking prices change?
|
|
Our car parking prices are constantly monitored to ensure that we
offer the best price possible. Hence, our prices are subject to change, so please
bear in mind that quotes are valid at the time of booking only.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Why can’t I get a quote for the car park I’m looking for?
|
|
The most likely explanation is that the pre-book allocation for this
car park has been filled. In most circumstances we will still be able to accommodate
you if you just turn up. If you are unsure please telephone 0845 303 7397.

PRM and Blue Badge holders may wish to use the appropriate Short Stay designated bays in Car

How do I know my booking has been placed?

When you make your booking you will see a confirmation page with
a booking reference number. You will then receive two emails.
One will confirm your payment has been made and the second email will confirm
all the details of your booking. You should print this email and bring it with you
to the airport in case of any query. If you do not receive a confirmation email
please email us at exeter.customerservices@apcoa.com.
We will check that your booking has
been made and confirm this to you.

|
|
|
What do I do when I get to the car park?
|
|
At the entry barrier, your vehicle registration number will be recognised.
A ticket will be printed showing your registration number and booking reference.
The barrier will then open (if you experience any difficulties, please press the
call button for assistance). Park your vehicle and make a note of the zone that
you have parked in. Retain your ticket as you will need this to exit the car park
on your return.
|
|
|
|
What happens when I return from my trip?
|
|
If for some reason your parking ticket does not have a booking reference
printed on it. Please go to the customer services office located in car park 2 prior
to returning to your vehicle.
On exit, insert your entry ticket into the machine at the barrier. Your number plate
will be read and the barrier will lift automatically as long as you are still within
your pre booked period. If you have overstayed this period you can pay the balance
by credit or debit card at the exit. (If you experience any difficulties, please
press the call button for assistance). All non pre booked customers are required
to pay and validate their ticket themselves. This can be done at either of the payment
stations located in arrivals lounge and Car park 1. You can also pay by credit or
debit card at the exit barriers.

Are there any restrictions on the kind of vehicle I can bring?
|

We do not have any height restrictions in the car parks, but please

exeter.customerservices@apcoa.com to ensure we can accommodate the vehicle
and to confirm any additional charges.

What happens if my car won’t start at the car park?
|

Don’t worry, go to the nearest bus stop or payment machine and press
the intercom. This will be answered by the Duty Manager of the car park. They will
send out a van to jump start your car. If any further assistance than this is required,
you must contact your Breakdown Service.

|
|
|
What happens if my car gets damaged while it is parked in the
airport car park?
|
|
In the unlikely event of this happening, you must go directly to
the Duty Manager of the car park to whom you should report the incident. They can
be reached either at the APCOA Customer Services Kiosk in Car Park 2. Do not leave
the car park without reporting the incident.
|
|
|
|
What happens if my return flight is delayed?
