:rolleyes:I have today booked a cruise on Azura on May 10th. I forgot to ask for a free parking place at Southampton, can anyone suggest the best parking option, I can't stay the night before, so have to park on the morning of departure. So far parking seems very expensive, would be glad of any cheap suggestions please:)

As far I know the CPS service is pretty good & problem free, I doubt if you would have got free parking booking this late anyway. I agree it is expensive though.

Just a cheeky thought :o, It may be cheaper to book the stay and park package at a hotel, provided you tell them your intentions and pay by card over the phone or when you arrive! I don't think they'll mind the room not been used and be glad of the business! Alternatively book the parking and then stay at the hotel on your return journey, I think you can get a deal for £99 if you pretend to be using the airport, not the cruise terminal

Thanks for that website information, looks as though that might be a good idea.:)

I just had a thought....what's to stop someone leaving their car at a hotel then getting a taxi to the port??

Would the clamping release fee be less expensive? If its a long cruise wouldn't it get towed?:eek:

Suppose it depends on if they realise it's been left there!

We'll leave you to test that out then JTD :)

Well I know one hotel that P&O use where they would never know who parked there! We don't need parking as we just get our neighbour to drive us, another bonus for us ....ease of access.
