if you fly from blackpool airport
 

add an extra £10 per adult (16 and over) onto your price for the airport development fee Blackpool International - Airport Facilities - UK and European destinations with both charter and scheduled flights. you cant get throught the gate without one, its free for children but they have to have a ticket as well, theres machines on the wall

no one tells you when you book and its a bit of a pain if you have already had your money changed

nice little airport tho :D

lol boeing, i doubt it :D

we were on the plane and the pilot came out and went to the toilet, my little lad saw him and thought no one was flying the plane :D

For that £10 though you do get upto 15 days Free Car parking, i'm using the Airport in a couple of weeks and think thats a bargain, sure beats Manchester Car Parking situation!

i used the airport 2 weeks ago and yesterday :D i prefer blackpool to manchester, didnt say it wasnt worth it, i said no one tells you :D

have you used the car park before? we had to do a bit of offroading to park there lol

Re: if you fly from blackpool airport
 

No i hav'nt used it yet, i've driven past a few times recently though, i suppose it depends how many cars are on does it, and how close you can park to the Terminal Entrance? I'll be arriving early morning, but with this offer i suppose a lot will take it up and will perhaps be a lot on the car park!

there was a lot of cars and people had abandoned them all over the place, parkings not that far away but if its possible to get a lift there and back i would, just in case because theres nowt you can do if you get there and theres no spaces... it looked like a few cars had been there a while as well.

Re: if you fly from blackpool airport
 

I emailed Blackpool Airport earlier about the Parking problems after reading your post and also having read some posts about parking difficulties on an Airline forum. I asked if they "Guaranteed" a parking space for all travellers, as i was concerned about the situation. THey got back to me within the hour (Amazed at that!) and they said they did Guarantee a parking space and if i could'nt find a space in car parks 1 or 2, to go to the information desk and they would definately find me one!! So will be interesting to see how i go on, but i feel more reassured now! Having said that, i'll set off early just in case!!;)

Apparently when the spaces are all full they use some of the empty aircraft hanger..............
