Making Transport Profitable

“With the growth of budget airlines, people often spend more on parking than on their airfare”

At major airports, shopping is a major industry in itself. But at smaller airports, Parking is the second largest revenue generator after landing fees. Getting it right is critical to the user experience. Customers arriving for flights haven’t time to worry about the right change. They need fast, flexible payment solutions, often in multi-currency.

At railheads and bus stations, time is again a key factor. The lazy route of Pay and Display, with its threat of fines, need for change and payment in advance – just when the customer is stressed about meeting their connection – is giving way to cleverly designed pay on Foot facilities with their additional security, flexibility and season payment options. Customers often pay almost as much to park as to travel and speed, ease of use and security are vital to them.

Zeag is at the forefront here as one of the top parking providers for the transport sector. With no fewer than five airports including Manchester, London City and Durham Tees Valley and major contracts with National Express, no-one knows more about parking at transport facilities.
