Park and ride
Off-airport car park; transfer bus each way; you keep your keys; usually cheapest; sold by Heathrow's own Park & Ride and by most aggregators.

Park and ride, and why we don't do it
Park-and-ride means driving to a car park off the airport and taking a bus to your terminal. It's usually the cheapest way to park at Heathrow. We don't offer it: Aviator runs meet-and-greet only, where you drive to the terminal and hand the car over.
COMPARISON · FACTS ONLY
Transfer bus versus terminal handover.
Meet and greet with Aviator
Drive to your terminal; hand the car over; collect at your return terminal; up to 30 minutes of terminal access parking included; full refund up to 48 hours before drop-off.
WHO SHOULD PICK WHICH
Choose on the journey, then compare the totals.
If price is the only thing that matters and you don't mind a bus with luggage, park-and-ride will be cheaper. If you want to drive to the door and walk in, get a meet-and-greet quote and compare the two totals yourself.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
Up to 30 minutes of terminal access parking.
Anything else is shown on the quote before you pay.
QUESTIONS
Short answers, before you ask.
If it isn’t here, reply to any booking email.
Does Aviator offer park-and-ride?
No.
Does Aviator offer Long Stay?
No; Heathrow's own Park & Ride is the airport's long-stay product.
Is meet-and-greet always dearer?
Not always; the only way to know for your dates is a quote, which you can get without giving any details.
