Collection and return in the multi-storey car park next to the terminal.
Transfers from airport
Transfers are not required as this is a Meet and Greet service.
Overview
Gatwick Sure Parking Meet & Greet is a terminal parking service serving both Gatwick North and South. Drive to the designated meeting area close to your terminal, hand over your car and keys to the Sure Parking team and walk to check-in while your vehicle is taken to secure off-airport storage.
There is no shuttle journey in either direction, making it particularly convenient if you are travelling with children, heavy luggage or simply want to minimise the time between parking your car and reaching the terminal.
Why choose Sure Parking Meet & Greet?
No shuttle required: hand over your car close to the terminal and continue to check-in on foot.
Both terminals: Sure Parking serves Gatwick North and South.
Gatwick Approved Operator: Sure Parking is currently part of Gatwick Airport's Approved Operators Scheme.
Staff park for you: leave your keys with the driver while your vehicle is stored away from the terminal.
24-hour service: the operation runs around the clock for early departures and late arrivals.
How does Sure Parking compare with I Love Meet & Greet?
I Love Meet & Greet is another Gatwick Approved Operator serving both terminals without a shuttle. The basic experience is very similar, but they are separate parking operations with their own storage facilities and booking conditions.
Compare the total price, cancellation terms and current reviews. If the prices are close, the exact meeting arrangements and flexibility of the rate may help decide between them.
How does Sure Parking compare with Maple Parking Meet & Greet?
Maple Parking Meet & Greet is also a Gatwick Approved Operator and offers the same broad type of terminal handover service. Both remove the need for a transfer bus and serve North and South.
Neither has an obvious advantage purely from the service type, so compare the live price, booking conditions and recent customer feedback for your dates.
How does Sure Parking compare with Gatwick Official Valet?
Both let you leave your car close to the terminal and avoid a shuttle. Gatwick Official Valet is operated as part of the airport's own parking service, while Sure Parking is an independent Gatwick Approved Operator and stores your vehicle in its own off-airport compound.
Official Valet may appeal if you specifically want an airport-operated product. Sure Parking can provide much of the same terminal convenience and may offer a lower price, so it is worth comparing both for your dates.

The staff are very rude to you and we was made to pay for another ticket when we arrived. On the way home said he would not release my car until I had got all my bags yet I told him we had already been through customs and we had just took our bag of the conveyor belt. So then rang back 3 minutes later ince in the car park so had to then wait 10 minutes before he arrived there.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS This is by far the worst customer service I have ever dealt with in my life. We arrived a few days ahead of our scheduled arrival date due to a medical emergency involving my daughters (1 & 3 years old). The operator refused to give us any estimate of how long it will take to deliver our car even though we said we’re willing to wait. He promised to find out more info and call us back but he never did. We tired to call him again, he hanged up the phone & never picked up again. We were forced to take a taxi back home. To date they retain our car & they ask us to come to the airport to pick it up on our original arrival time. They refuse to put us through to a manager. They never answer our emails. There is no means to make an official complaint. Now we are considering going to the police or seeking legal action against them. Please avoid this company. Your don’t need this stress in your life.
