Gatwick can be more convenient than you realize
Nearly everyone in London is aware of the nightmare that is parking at Heathrow, but the good news is that Gatwick Airport parking is not nearly so challenging. It’s also much easier to reach Gatwick by car, so it’s an ideal choice for an airport for most travelers if they have their own wheels. Yes, it can be a bit expensive if you use the main parks that are directly on the airport, but they have many other car parks that are just off the airport grounds with prices that are much lower than the main ones.
Another big issue that people worry about is whether or not the car park they drive to is going to be full or not just before their flight out. Some of these places to sell out and are completely full, especially on weekends or during bank holiday periods, but many of the better parks now have reservation systems where you can prepay and you’ll have a spot waiting for you when you arrive. If you are like most people, you have been running behind schedule once or twice before a flight, so the advantages of booking your airport parking in advance are pretty clear.
