IF YOU are looking for ways of saving some money on parking when you next jet off from Southampton Airport then look no further.
With holidays finally given the green light but the cost of living crisis pinching us all, there's seemingly never been a better time to shave some pennies off our next trip.
Airport parking can be notoriously costly, the price of two days parking in the short stay bays at Southampton start at £34.99.

Southampton Airport
But how can you save money on airport parking? We've got you covered.
A new website called Park On My Drive offers households the chance to make a bit of extra cash by advertising their drive as an alternative parking option.
Though this means users of the site have to get a taxi or bus to the airport, this often works out as a much cheaper option than airport parking.
Park On My Drive allows those who have empty driveways and garages to rent them out on a daily, weekly or monthly basis to motorists.
At the time of writing, there are 44 available parking spaces in Southampton with Park On My Drive - all within a three-mile radius of the airport.
Prices start at between £3.60 to £5 for a whole day of parking, with users able to book for multiple days at a time and property owners specifying which days are available.
