Surprised you didn’t just book park & fly, then let the parking company know you’re returning to a different terminal (makes no difference to them)

AYSYCOTBAC?Originally posted by tazdevil View PostFlying out of Heathrow soon and staying the night before at the Hilton Garden Inn. It looks like I can drop off the missus with luggage on Cessna Road but can't find a map anywhere which tells me if doing that gets me clocked for a drop off charge, anyone know?

I can just see the headlines now: Wealthy Contractor tries to save £5 by putting wife on free public transport. Wife not impressed.
Almost as bad as that MP who quit today because his £118,000 salary couldn't support his mortgage payments.Comment

Not a problem anymore as we've changed the hotel to a deluxe room at the De Vere Beaumont Estate outside Windsor, less money and more style and happy wife
Hopefully the restaurant is better than what some of the reviews lead one to expect
Probably be the Burger and a bottle of Pinot Grigio, a tad below our normal standard but coming from Yorkshire I'm loath to pay the restaurant prices
Still got rubbish airline food the next day
I remember the days in the 20thC when short haul on Swissair was a full cooked meal and bottle of wine, them were the days

Liz used to put us up when flying out of Heathrow. Her gaff was stylish but a little drafty. Corgis bloody everywhere.Comment
