Gatwick South Terminal Meet and Greet Parking

Start with your travel dates and planned vehicle handover and collection times. Allow for airport check-in before departure and the time needed to reach the collection point after landing; your flight times are not necessarily your parking times.

[Compare parking for your Gatwick dates](/results), then check each product’s South Terminal arrangements, named operator, total price, inclusions and cancellation or amendment terms. Read any conditions covering access charges, late collection or changes to your booking rather than assuming every product works the same way. Select a suitable product before proceeding to payment.

Confirm both your departure and return terminals against your flight details before booking. If you are unsure, use our guide to [checking your Gatwick departure and return terminals](/guides/which-gatwick-terminal-departure-return).

Gatwick Meet & Greet service hours are 04:00–23:00 daily. Check that your intended handover and collection times fall within those hours. A flight landing shortly before 23:00 may not leave enough time for passport control, baggage reclaim and vehicle collection. If your schedule is close to either limit, clarify the arrangements before paying. Do not assume an out-of-hours handover is possible.

Save your booking confirmation and the operator’s contact details somewhere you can access on the day. Check that your registration, travel dates, terminal and contact number are correct.

Follow the booked product’s instructions for the meeting point, approach route and any required call before arrival. Do not head to a generic South Terminal drop-off area unless your instructions direct you there. Leave enough time for the vehicle handover as well as your airline’s check-in requirements.

At the meeting point, confirm you are handing the vehicle to the representative for your booking. Take your luggage, travel documents, medication and valuables with you, and complete any handover checks or paperwork requested before leaving your keys.

Read the return instructions before you fly home so you know when to contact the operator and where to collect your vehicle. Follow the specified contact stage rather than assuming you should call immediately after landing.

If your flight is delayed or your arrival terminal changes, contact the operator using the details in your confirmation. Check the booked terms for late collection, additional charges and what happens if you cannot collect within 04:00–23:00. Do not assume a flight delay automatically extends service hours.

At collection, complete any return checks with the representative and raise any concerns before driving away.

Booking ahead gives you time to compare the terms, check the handover location and plan your journey to South Terminal. It also lets you clarify any questions about vehicle restrictions, a different return terminal or collection near closing time before travelling.

It does not guarantee a lower price or availability. Once you have chosen a suitable product and paid online, review your confirmation promptly and keep the departure and return instructions together.

Use the [Gatwick Meet & Greet parking overview](/parking/gatwick/gatwick-meet-and-greet-parking) to review the wider airport options, then choose according to your confirmed terminal and travel times. For a South Terminal booking, the key checks are straightforward: suitable handover and collection arrangements, times within service hours, clear terms and accurate vehicle details.
