Airport offers summer holidays parking discount

Guernsey Ports said stays of six days or longer will automatically get a 20% discount on parking

Guernsey Airport has launched a discount on long-stay parking for the summer holidays.

Stays of six days or longer would automatically get a 20% discount, airport operator Guernsey Ports said.

Ports bosses said the promotion, which lasts until 7 September, aimed to make long-stay parking a "more appealing and affordable choice" for travellers.

Philip Smallwood, airline Aurigny's chief operations officer, said the scheme meant people travelling on seasonal routes to Europe could "plan a holiday without the hassle".

David Buddery, from Ports, said the schedule gave travellers "another option, so they can decide what works best for them".

He said Ports would monitor the effect of the changes to help decide on the airport's future parking provision.

• 6 days - £76.80 (£19.20 saving)

• 7 days - £86.40 (£21.60 saving)

• 8 days - £96.00 (£24.00 saving)

• 9 days - £105.60 (£26.40 saving)

• 10 days - £115.20 (£28.80 saving)

• 11 days - £124.80 (£31.20 saving)

• 12 days - £134.40 (£33.60 saving)

• 13 days - £144.00 (£36.00 saving)
