Only two were more expensive

A car park at Bristol Airport has been named the most expensive place to leave your vehicle outside of London. The Silver Zone car park charges a huge £115 to park for seven days, according to experts at hoppa.
The park-and-ride options are less than 10 minutes from the terminals and offer shuttle services for paying travellers. The car park is between seven and nine minutes away from the nearest terminal.
Managing director at hoppa Chris Harrington said: “Airport parking costs have seen a huge increase in recent years, with holiday makers across the UK spending hundreds of pounds to park each summer.
“Unfortunately, many holidaymakers feel that public transport cannot be relied on, and would rather pay to ensure a seamless journey.
“It is a good idea to shop around when looking at airport parking and check for any available deals.
“Booking airport parking as far in advance as possible can also keep costs down, as parking prices may go up when availability is limited.
“If your travel plans are firm and you are confident that they will go ahead, booking non-flexible parking can be more cost-effective. It is important to be aware that these are often non-refundable, and you will be charged even if you don’t use the parking.
“It is also worth checking other transportation methods, such as pre-bookable airport transfers, which can pick you up from your home and take you directly to your airport terminal.”
Bristol only came behind car parks at London Heathrow and London City Airport. London Heathrow has the most expensive airport parking, with visitors forking out over £200 to leave their vehicles at the UK’s busiest airport.
The park and ride options are 15 minutes from terminals 2 and 3, and offer shuttle services to the terminal.
Another London airport, London City, has the second-most-expensive airport parking. Visitors will pay just under £115 for the cheapest parking option, which is a 10-minute shuttle service from the airport terminal.
