Question liverpool airport

my girlfriends gone to study in spain for the next year the plus point is cheap weekend breaks (£30 return flights+ tax on ryanair) now my problem is the nearest airport that does budget fights to grenada is liverpool. after some extensive resurch i've come to the conclution that its going to be easier to drive to the airport from carlisle in the scoob only thing will be the price of optitax so what i want to know is can anyone recomend somewhere where i can park the scoob safe and secure? and cheap if poss

cheers mike

Your problem is that all the locals will leave their cars at home and get a taxi or a mate to drop them off rather than pay for storage, but as above, I wouldn't leave any decent car in Speke.

I've seen Porsche's, M3's and M5's parked in the Liverpool Airport car park so I wouldn't really worry about putting a scoob there

dazza thats what ive been thinking, getting to the airport is'nt a problem, as the outward flights are in the afternoon so a train down will be ok, the return fights are late evening about 11 o'clock and no trains so i will prob pay a mate to pick me up, prob work out cheaper than taking the car anyway

They've probably already been nicked and are parked there by the thieves to see if the tracker's been activated

Two plane loads came back to Speke from the apple picking in France but they have been sent straight back out to New Orleans to help with the blackburrying.

Liverpool airport is not cheap for parking. I paid £16.90 for my (work) day trip to Belfast today, though it's a little cheaper for Long stay.

If you're in Carlisle, can you not get flights from Edinburgh, Glasgow or Newcastle instead?

Also, Liverpool Airport sucks, there is practically nothing to do while you are waiting.
