Welcome
Hi ! My name is Richard and you have arrived at my travel journal.
You can read all of spiel and find out more about me here. I've been travelling the world now for a few months armed with a bag of clothes, a laptop and my incredibly unreliable digital camera. Enjoy the blog and contact me if you'd like to join the scores of people abusing me.
Airport Hotels
Posted by admin
airport hotels is a subject I’ve not mentioned previously on the blog. I have touched on airport parking but after arriving at Bahamas airport and staying in their resident hotel I realised that research is key for anyone’s budget or sanity.
You see I flew into Bahamas and naively checked myself straight in at a high cost where as if I was searching for Gatwick hotels or Heathrow airport hotels I would have felt more comfortable searching because I know the area. Anyway the point I’m trying to make is that searching online can be done no matter where in the world you are landing. You can even see for hotels that are in close proximity to the airport for extra savings.
Moving on from Dortmund

Ahh, I’m slightly disappointed at the moment. Its 3.43pm here in Dortmund and a cheap flight I was supposed to catching over to Paris at 4.00pm local time has been cancelled. I’m going to hang on until tomorrow and get myself off then.
So what of Dortmund … Read the rest of this entry »
Airport Parking

More posts on the Dortmund over the next few days as I’m still stuck here, getting a little bored now ! I’m also looking to get a few images up on my flickr so keep an eye out for those.
Just now I’d like to share a bit of knowledge gained during my travels. This blog would be wasted if I were not able to pass on a little bit of advice from time to time. UK airport parking has never been better you can book in advance, find great discounts and all online. Go ahead and book online safe in the knowledge that your space will be reserved and you’ll literally only have to turn up and drive into it.
Some key tips include :
- Check your car when you leave it and more-so when you go to pick it up. If you notice damage before driving away you must report it. Why ? If you drive away then the company who have been holding car will not be liable. You have driven your car away and as such have agreed that you are happy with its condition.
- Make sure you pre-book. If you pre-book you can receive fantastic discounts. Also check if airport parking can been thrown in with your deal at the travel agents.
- Allow a little extra time for your whole arrival at the airport. This may seem obvious but parking up and walking to the terminal rather than jumping straight out of a taxi will definitely add a little time onto your arrival.
Gatwick Airport Parking and Manchester Airport Parking are two of the most popular destinations but wherever you are parking the advice above should hold you in good-stead.
