Thistle Hotels has launched fantastic new Park & Fly rates at their airport hotels to help you save money even before you board the plane.

For a hassle-free trip, spend a night at one of five Thistle airport hotels, all situated close to major UK airports, taking advantage of the Park & Fly deals which combines overnight accommodation and up to 15 days parking. Available at Thistle Hotels at Heathrow, Gatwick, Aberdeen, East Midlands and Manchester airports, the new Park & Fly rates start from just £48.

The rates can offer considerable savings and often Thistle`s Park & Fly deals can be less than standard airport rates. Instead of paying a total of £99.00* just to park your car at Gatwick Airport for two weeks, the Thistle London Gatwick is offering overnight accommodation in a double or twin room for just £89, which includes 15 days parking at the hotel.

All five Thistle airport hotels are situated no more than ten minutes away from the airports themselves and run regular shuttle bus services to and from the airports (except Thistle Manchester Airport), again ensuring a hassle-free trip for you, especially if your flight leaves early in the morning.

All the bedrooms in the hotels offer facilities you would expect from a Thistle Hotel, including en-suite bathroom, trouser press, hairdryer, tea and coffee making facilities, TV with satellite channels, Internet access and express check out. In addition Thistle has introduced some special services with business guests in mind, such as early check in and late check out on request. A full English or Continental breakfast is also available at an added charge.

This special rate is valid until 1 April 2004 so for a summer beach getaway with the kids or a skiing break over Christmas, or even a business meeting abroad, why not take advantage of these superb prices and start your break stress-free, and with a little more spending money.

For enquiries and reservations please call 0870 333 9198 and quote “Park and Fly”, or book online at www.thistlehotels.com/parkandfly and enter PFF in the promotional code box.

*Prices quoted are at current NCP Flightpath rates.
