Manchester Meet and Greet Parking for Disabled Travellers: Compare & Book

Updated 3 November 2026

Compare Manchester meet and greet parking for disabled travellers with your handover needs in mind. Before paying, confirm where you will leave and collect your car, how you will reach airport assistance and whether the arrangements suit your mobility requirements. Manchester service hours are 04:00–23:00 daily.

Compare the handover arrangements, not just the price

With Meet & Greet parking, you drive to the booked product’s designated handover point and leave your car and keys with the parking team. Your car is parked for your trip and returned according to that product’s collection instructions.

Start with our [Manchester parking comparison page](/parking/manchester/manchester-meet-and-greet-parking). Check the product details for your dates, departure terminal and return terminal. Do not assume every product uses the same meeting point or offers the same arrangements for disabled travellers.

Before choosing, review the total payable amount, any stated handover charges, cancellation terms and contact instructions. If information essential to your journey is missing, ask for clarification before paying.

Confirm your mobility requirements before payment

Explain what you need at both departure and return rather than relying on a general request for accessible parking. Ask the booking contact or parking provider to confirm:

• The exact meeting point and the distance and route from there to the terminal or assistance meeting point. • Whether that route involves kerbs, steps, lifts or a change of level. • Whether the handover location allows the space you need to open doors fully, transfer into a wheelchair or unload mobility equipment. • How any additional unloading or transfer time should be arranged. • Whether help with luggage or equipment is available, if you need it; do not assume this is included. • Whether your vehicle can be accepted if it has adaptations, and what operating instructions the driver needs.

Request written confirmation of any agreed arrangements. A Meet & Greet booking alone does not confirm step-free access, wheelchair support or a particular handover location.

Arrange airport special assistance separately

Parking handover and airport special assistance are separate arrangements. Request airport assistance through your airline or travel provider, following its notice requirements, and confirm where you should report on arrival.

Check how you will get from the parking handover point to that assistance meeting point. If you need support between the two, establish who will provide it before booking; do not assume the parking driver can escort you or that airport assistance will meet your car.

Use our [Manchester special assistance guide](/guides/manchester-airport-special-assistance) to plan the airport stages. Also [check your departure and return terminals](/guides/which-manchester-airport-terminal), particularly if the two flights use different terminals.

On departure: follow your booked product’s instructions

Keep your booking confirmation and parking contact number accessible. Follow the product’s directions to the designated drop-off point and make any required call at the time specified. Do not substitute a terminal forecourt or assistance meeting point without agreement.

Allow time for unloading, transferring from the car and completing the handover before your airline’s check-in deadline. Tell the parking contact promptly if your arrival time changes.

Before handing over the keys, remove the mobility aids, medication, travel documents and other items you need for the journey. Complete any required vehicle checks and explain relevant adaptations or controls. Keep a record of the agreed return procedure.

On return: coordinate car collection and assistance

Follow the booked product’s return instructions, including when to call for your car. Do not assume you should call as soon as the aircraft lands: the instructions may specify a later stage of your arrival.

Coordinate airport assistance separately so you know how you will reach the agreed car collection point. Tell the parking contact if assistance, baggage collection or another delay changes your expected collection time.

Manchester service hours are 04:00–23:00 daily. Plan around the time you expect to collect the car, not just your flight’s landing time. If collection may fall outside those hours, clarify the product’s procedure before paying. Do not assume an out-of-hours handover will be possible.

Book ahead to leave time for essential checks

Booking ahead gives you time to compare product instructions, ask about your specific needs and coordinate parking with airport assistance. It does not guarantee suitable arrangements, availability or a lower price.

Before payment, check your dates, expected handover times, both terminals and any confirmed mobility arrangements. Review the amendment and cancellation terms in case your travel plans change.

Frequently asked questions

Is every Manchester Meet & Greet product suitable for wheelchair users?
Do not assume so. Suitability depends on the handover location, the route to airport assistance, the space needed for transfers and your individual requirements. Confirm these details for the specific product before paying.
Does booking parking also book airport special assistance?
No. Arrange airport special assistance separately through your airline or travel provider. Confirm the assistance meeting point and how you will reach it from the parking handover location.
Do I need a Blue Badge to book?
Check the selected product’s requirements before booking. If you intend to use your Blue Badge during handover or need it during your trip, ask whether it must be shown or displayed and whether you can take it with you. Do not assume badge-related access or concessions apply.
Can I collect my car after 23:00 if my flight is delayed?
Manchester service hours are 04:00–23:00 daily, so do not assume collection after 23:00 is possible. Check the product’s delay procedure before payment and contact the parking provider promptly if your expected collection time changes.
