One thing that can get the holiday off to a stressful start is an early flight. I don't know about you but if I have to get up at a ridiculously early hour - or middle of the night - I can't sleep for worrying that I might miss the alarm and I'll spend my precious holiday sitting on a suitcase in the middle of the hallway. And then of course there is the worry that the car might break down on the way to the airport or get a puncture. Or, if going by train, that it might be delayed. Oh, the permutations and possibilities are endless!
But of course many people like to spend the night before flying at a hotel near to the airport. Not only does this allow an extra couple of hours sleep but also cuts out virtually all of those travel worries - although the extra expense can be tough to take.
However a few weeks ago, our guests were telling me about a good deal they had found with Holiday Extras which provided them with accommodation just 5 miles from Manchester airport and with parking and transfers all included. Both came to less than £50 and bearing in mind that's for two people, I think it's a bargain - well worth it for peace of mind!
Although the whole booking was done through Holiday Extras, they could also have booked it independently for around the same cost directly with Altrincham Lodge and Purple Parking.
But of course, companies such as Holiday Extras are not restricted to Manchester Airport for good deals so no matter which airport you are flying from, it could be worth checking into! Just make sure you are not staying near Gatwick airport and flying from Manchester.
Don't you just love holidays?
