You can find Leeds-Bradford Airport (LBA) about 8 miles (13kms) northwest of Leeds and approximately 7 miles (11kms) north of Bradford. The sole terminal facility runs direct flights all over Britain and Europe as well as linking long-distance flights through London Heathrow, Paris and Amsterdam. The only terminal at Leeds-Bradford International Airport handles arrivals and departures. In the principal you can find the check-in area. The airport is ecellently connected to local roads and motorways and is clearly signposted on a number of regional routes.

I just got retired but when I was still working I used the airport dozens of times for business and pleasure trips to domestic as well as several European destinations. I had the option to check out every available car park at the airport complex. My friends and acquaintances always ask my advice regarding the various parking services as they know that by now I'm an expert on the subject. Usually I went away for a day or three and the short-term parking was the best choice for me. However, I also used the airport (and still do) the airport for my long family holidays. I think I used all the different methods of parking by now. The majority of the available parking companies provide similar levels of services with adequate security measures and friendly and professional staff.

The Secured Car Park Award was won by the two facilities providing short- and long stay parking at Leeds-Bradford airport. Short-term car park spaces are situated within just a short walk from the terminal building. This facility is most convenient for picking up and dropping off persons. For those wishing to park for just a couple of hours, this facility provides the best option. You do not have to pay a fee for the first 30 minutes.

When you need to park your car at the long-term car park you will be transferred to the terminal building. The coach which operates the transfer service departs every 10 minutes and is every day of the week available from 06:00 to 22:00. You have the option to pay for the parking service when you return from your trip at a pay station. Several of these pay stations can be found in the arrivals hall. After paying the price a validated exit card will be given to you. There is a minimum duration of five days. Drivers who book their car park space at the long-stay parking lot ahead of time can enjoy the special cheaper parking rates.

In Yeadon approximately one mile (1.6kms) from Leeds airport you can find the off-site amenity which is operated by Sentinel Security Car Park. They offer reasonably priced parking with a straightforward check in procedure. The trip between the parking site and the terminal building has a five-minute travel time. AGS offer the same kind of services. However, their parking facility is located a little bit farther away from the airport terminal.

If you rather not wish to shop around at the airport for car parking prices and info about the various parking options I strongly advice you secure your parking space before you arrive at the airport which easily can be done in advance online. It will save you a couple of pounds and is significantly less time consuming. All experienced fliers know that parking rates are quite pricey and therefore a discounted fee is most enjoyable. Also pre-booking through the internet is secure, fast, efficient, reliable and easy. For your benefit I will mention some of the better websites which offer the best deals on airport car parking at Leeds-Bradford International Airport.
