What is car valet and how does it work? A small vademecum on how to book a car valet service in anticipation of an air travel. Here are the answers to questions about the car valet service and with whom to book it.
I discovered the car valet a couple of years ago and I must say that since then I have not been able to leave the car in an airport parking lot without using the car valet. Obviously I am referring to long trips, to those in which I am out for at least 7 days. On weekend trips or those that take me out of the house for a maximum of 4 days, I still use the car park with shuttle.
For some years, as I said, I have discovered the beauty of car valet. For the long trips this service is perfect, especially for those leaving with children or for those who have to take a lot of things on the plane (see seats or strollers or more than one suitcase).
How does the car valet work exactly?
My reservation specifically I made at Malpensa parking via site Parkos. The car valet option can be found among other options, such as outdoor or covered parking, parking for a few days and more. The car valet option is economically a little more expensive than the others, but also because it offers a greater service.
Once at the airport, what do you do?
About 10 minutes before arriving at the airport, the navigator will tell you when to actually call, you will have to call the number indicated in the reservation (which will arrive via email after payment is made). Calling the number you will have to give your details, name and surname and specify the car valet airport parking. The operator will indicate the departures entrance and will give you a common meeting point to meet. At that point, after having signed a sheet indicating the responsibilities of the car from that moment on to the agency, you can unload your suitcases, strollers and seats and go safely to take the flight.
You will therefore no longer have the car problem, the parking problem, the problem are late when the shuttle arrives. You will leave the keys and the car with a parking operator chosen through Parkos booking and you will go on your adventure.
On the way back, the dynamics will be the same. As soon as you collect your bags, you will have to contact the usual number and wait for the car to arrive at the meeting point. I often ask for the external and internal washing of the car, which is a service that you cannot book from the web platform, but that you can request when leaving the car and pay at the pick-up. In this way, in addition to having the enormous advantage in terms of time and convenience when I leave and return (especially) from a trip, I also have the convenience of having a clean car!
Why is car valet so convenient?
How many of us are tired after returning from a trip and want to be in the comfort of their own home as soon as possible? Upon returning from a trip, I can't wait to take a shower, fix my suitcase and lie down on my sofa. The car valet practically does nothing but simplify and facilitate these operations. It gives you the opportunity to find your car at the airport exit, perhaps polished, ready to be loaded with suitcases full of memories and adventures.
Comfort does not often rhymes with savings, I agree, but in some cases it is good understand what the priorities are. Booking a car park with car valet does not cost as exaggerated as you might think and in terms of time and serenity it is really worth it, for the whole family.
