Pink Elephant Parking Southampton Airport

Security

Security measures include high security fencing, CCTV and floodlighting. The car park is patrolled 24 hours a day by security staff and police. This car park has been awarded the Park Mark, a national security award accredited by the Association of Chief Police Officers. Before being awarded the Park Mark, car parks have to be inspected by the police. They have to have modern security measures, such as alarms and CCTV, and be clean and well-lit. Car parks which have been awarded the Park Mark are regularly reinspected by the police. Parking is at the vehicle owner's own risk, subject to the terms and conditions of the car park.

Park Mark: Yes

Transfers

Between the carpark and airport: Every 10 minutes

Journey Time: 5 minutes (On Airport)

Arrival Procedure

The car park has an automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system, so make sure you enter your vehicle registration number correctly when you make your booking. You should bring your booking confirmation to the car park. Drive up to the entry barrier. The machine will read and recognise your car registration number. This should take about 10 seconds. A ticket will be printed showing your booking reference and the barrier will lift. Park your car and transfer to the airport. If the barrier does not lift within 10 seconds, press the button for a ticket.

Return Procedure

Drive to the exit barrier. Insert the ticket you were given when you came in and the barrier will open. If you had to press for a ticket when you arrived, or if you have any problems, show your booking confirmation and entry ticket to a parking attendant, or press the call button on the exit barrier for help.

Parking Procedure

Park your own car and keep the keys with you.

Additional Information

No trailers are permitted. Make sure to add your car registration number while placing the booking (if you have not added it, please call the car park to add reg). It needs to be the right one - if you change the car you are going to be traveling in, you need to give the car park the new details. You must do this, or the car park will charge you £10 when you leave, because if they don't have the right registration number, it holds things up when you arrive and leave.

Disabled Access

There are disabled parking spaces near the bus stops, and the transfer buses are wheelchair-accessible.
