Ace M&G

One of the few approved meet and greet operators at London Gatwick Airport, Ace Meet & Greet Parking offers the time-saving convenience of driving up to the terminal, rather than parking in an off-airport car park that requires a shuttle transfer to check-in.

Ace Meet & Greet is the easy Gatwick parking solution for those travelling with heavy luggage, or young children. It is also a good option for people with limited mobility. Popular with business travellers, Ace Meet & Greet offers an easy start to a trip away.

The drop-off area is a designated zone within the Short Stay car park, right opposite the terminal. All you need to do is drive into the car park, follow the signs to Ace Meet & Greet, and hand your car keys over to the uniformed staff. As you take the 2-minute stroll to the terminal building, your car will be driven away to a secured Ace parking facility, for the duration of your trip.

Ace car parks are surrounded by modern security fencing and are installed with 24-hour security alarms, CCTV monitors and security lighting. They are patrolled 24 hours.

You can book Ace Meet & Greet Parking for just one day if you need to.
