Park and fly
Airport parking for the holidays? Pure hassle. According to a survey by Park ’N Fly Network, 50 percent of travelers cited dragging their luggage from the car to the airport and back as one of their biggest annoyances. Seventy percent expressed concerns about long waits for the shuttle to and from the airport. Park ’N Fly, with facilities at 65 airports across the nation, notes that it offers luggage assistance from drivers who also provide pick-up and drop-off at the travelers’ cars, as well as continuous shuttle service. The company maintains that savings average 25 percent vs. compared with airport parking lots.
