2013-06-10 — /travelprnews.com/ — Budapest Airport has introduced an online parking system for all suitable car parks at the airport. The move is part of a program intended to develop the quality of parking products, and is expected to quickly become popular with passengers due to the discounts provided.
Passengers have a wide range of parking products to choose from to suit their travel plans and wallet. Following online payment, similarly to online airline bookings, they simply have to print out the confirmation bearing a barcode. This is needed as backup, to make sure that the system will work in case the license plate is difficult to read in winter weather. The significant online discounts provided by Budapest Airport take into account the date of travel and the utilization of the car parks, ensuring that conditions are adjusted to passengers’ travel habits.
“I am confident that motorists will quickly take to online parking at the airport,” said Manel Moreno, head of landside services of Budapest Airport. “Our aim is to establish a parking system that is tailored to passengers’ needs, and the online booking system is a significant element of this, which serves comfort and safety,” he added.
“We built our online parking system on the experiences of numerous other international airports,” emphasized Alan Bork, director consumer for Budapest Airport. “During the past years we have been continuously developing the parking system at the airport, and it has become more transparent, more flexible and much more modern. I am sure that during the summer peak season, many people will use this online service, which will be also available for travel agencies as a service to be provided to their customers,” he continued.
