Overview
Holiday Extras Express Park & Ride T2 & T3 is an off-airport Heathrow parking option on Bath Road, operated by Maple Parking and serving Terminals 2 and 3. You drive to the car park, hand over your keys and take the included shuttle to Heathrow.
The important thing to know is that this is not a completely separate parking operation from Maple Express Park & Ride T2/3. It uses the same underlying Maple Parking site, so the main reason to compare the two is price, flexibility and the booking conditions attached to each rate.
Why choose Holiday Extras Express Park & Ride T2 & T3?
- Serves Terminals 2 and 3 — the transfer takes around 10 minutes.
- Transfers included — buses currently run around every 10–15 minutes.
- Operated by Maple Parking — an established Heathrow parking operator.
- Outside the ULEZ — useful if your vehicle is not ULEZ compliant, provided you follow the recommended route.
- Secure parking — CCTV, perimeter fencing and 24-hour patrols.
How does Holiday Extras Express Park & Ride T2 & T3 compare?
Holiday Extras Express vs Maple Express Park & Ride T2/3
The most important comparison is Maple Express Park & Ride T2/3, because these are different branded products using the same underlying Maple Parking operation. Both use the Bath Road car park, both require you to leave your keys and both use the same shuttle service to Terminals 2 and 3. Compare the final price, cancellation terms and flexibility rather than assuming one product provides a different parking experience.
Holiday Extras Express vs Purple Parking Park & Ride T2 & T3
Purple Parking Park & Ride T2 & T3 is another current key-handover Park & Ride alternative. Purple currently lists a transfer of around 10–12 minutes, so journey times are broadly similar. The useful comparison is therefore the total price, shuttle frequency, booking flexibility and which operator's arrival and return process you prefer.

Additional information
There's no height restriction, so most standard vehicles are fine.
If you're coming back earlier than expected, let the car park know as soon as you can so they can get your car ready.
Early or late? The car park offers a grace period up to midnight at their discretion. Any longer than this and you'll be charged the car park's standard rate of £20 per day. This is subject to change.
You'll need to leave your keys so they can move your car. Got a keyless car? Make sure you leave a manual key with the team.
