Common questions

Who are South Cruise Parking?

We are a booking agent based in Southampton. We do not own the car parks — we hold contracts with vetted operators at Southampton Cruise Port, Portsmouth Ferry Port, Gatwick and Heathrow, and we sell their spaces below the gate price.

How close is the car park to the cruise terminal?

Our Southampton park and ride site is a six minute transfer from the Ocean, City, Mayflower, Horizon and QEII terminals. Meet and greet takes your car at the terminal door, so there is no transfer at all.

What happens if my ship docks late on the return day?

Nothing to do. Give us a call when you can and we will let the car park know. You will not be charged extra for a delay outside your control.

How do I change a booking?

Reply to your confirmation email or call +44 7984 320734. Changes made more than 24 hours before your drop-off time are free.

Can I cancel and get a refund?

Yes, with at least 72 hours notice. An administration fee is deducted from the refund, which is returned to the card you paid with within five working days.

Where do I find the car park address?

It is in your confirmation email, sent within two minutes of booking, along with the postcode and arrival instructions. If it has not arrived, check your junk folder, then call us.

Are there restrictions on vehicle size?

Most operators accept vehicles up to 1.9 m high and 5.0 m long, which covers almost every standard car and estate. Remove roof boxes that exceed the height limit. Trailers are not accepted. Vans and larger vehicles are priced separately.

What if I have a disability?

Park and ride and meet and greet both work well for blue badge holders. Tell us your requirements when you book and we will confirm the arrangements with the operator before you travel.
