There should be a chargeable set down / pick up area as is the case in many other airports. It's currently Very hard to find a space in the short term car parks. I had to park on the roof of the T2 car park for a meet and greet job for Roy the week before last and the previous weekend (as a consumer) I had to park right at the back of the "Express" Red car park and take a bus to the terminal. It's that far away I'd probably have been better off parking at your gaff and scrounging a lift!

Won't be taking another vacation until the end of the month unfortunately. That's to watch Cubs @ Cardinals or Cardinals @ Cubs if you prefer given that the game is @ London Stadium, which I believe is West Ham FCs home ground. Anywaysanall, needless to say Mrs. Catcher won't be coming so my lift to DAP is sorted, thanks!
