I've used the meet and greet in both T1 and T3 ... to be honest its dead easy and right next to the terminal in both cases.
I've find that its only slightly more expensive than the long stay carpark and even less than using local cabs when its just for a long weekend.

I will be using them again next time I'm away for the weekend. Thumbs Up

We used the official meet and greet at terminal 2 a couple of weeks ago, and several times in the past, why would you pay more to park further away and have more inconvienience? They have been great every time, £53 for two weeks we paid this time through holiday extras.

BL - dead on with greedy Manchester Airport - only Airport I've been to where you have to pay for the trolleys - avoid using now

Also I think you have to pay to use the drop of area at T3?

Glad to see someone sees it as I do.
I use to use the airport once a week & park....if you know where you are walking to you get handy with knowing the right car parks & spots to go
£1..00 for a plastic bloody bag.....outrageous ....a colleague got pulled up for having a bag just 16 mm the wrong size.
You use to pat for a trolley & then you got your £s back...not know
You pay to get one & it's not refunded when you return it.....I collect mine from the abandoned ones in the car parks...
It's an attitude problem there....from the car park people right through to the security staf & even the Police men...
I hate the place....maybe they hate me too.

Sadly not - just space for 2 cars

BL - I always swipe loads of the bags from Edinburgh Airport whenever I fly in - they are free - agree with the dislike of Mcr Airport - especially T2 security - what a joke
