Jetaway Geordies hoping for some festive sun might get a surprise when they come to book their parking - but the price rise for parking during Christmas week is nothing compared to other airports in the UK.
Newcastle Airport is increasing its fees slightly for families heading off for Christmas, with the cost of staying in the airport 's most popular short-stay car park from December 23-30 at £78.99 compared to £74.99 from January 13-20 - a difference of £4. And holidaymakers using Tees Valley Airport will pay exactly the same for both dates - just £40.
But a survey by Your Parking Space found that travellers heading further afield to start their holiday might be in for a nasty shock when they pay to park - with Heathrow Airport flying high on the list of shame at £156.30 to stay in its long stay parking serving terminals 2 and 3 during Christmas week compared to £104 after - a massive £52 more.
