With the school summer holidays fast approaching and the summer heat fading from the English shores, the prospect of holidaying abroad is becoming more and more of an appetising prospect. Despite the economic hardships and the recent recession, Brits are still looking to the overseas for a well earned break. An estimated 13 million UK residents will be packing up their glad rags and hitting those UK airports. However with the cost of fuel increasing for the aviation industry coupled with the issues felt over April’s Ash cloud fiasco we wonder what the true cost of a holiday will really mean for the average British consumer. The only true way of saving your holiday money is to look to savings on those manageable extras – one being airport parking.
An average family of 4 usual carry around 3 main pieces of luggage – that’s around 60 kg of weight. With estimates of the average baggage charge being around £8 you are already looking at £24. That is also alot of weight to carry around on public transport and as such you are likely to either be relying on a taxi to take you to your airport destination (£50 avg dependent on distance) or travelling by car. Similarly the average cost of airport parking for a week can set you back around £30 if bought on the day. Your luggage is effectively costing you almost £74!
