Recommendations – Airport Parking

(1)

 I can recommend SP Parking. I have used them a few times and I find them very good and give good service. I have just booked my car in for end of Feb’ for next trip. Check out the link below.

I recommend SP parking near the airport: info@spparking.es

A suggestion for car parking at Malaga airport.

We have used the ‘long stay’ parking at the airport for short or long stays.

It is way down past terminal three and can be booked online.

A shuttle bus takes care of transport at any time.

You must keep the ticket given in the office and their telephone number

when you return to call for the shuttle bus.

Big advantage is that you keep your car keys and no-one else

can use the car, which does happen with some companies.       Tony.

(4)

Platinum Parking. I have found to offer an excellent service

platinumparking@gmail.com
951402866

Also Google their website Platinum Parking.       Andrew

(5)

We always use Parking Costa Golf http://parkingcostagolf.com/en/

They will also take you to the port or station in Malaga too.

We like them as they are easy to get to without having to go into the airport complex. You just turn off the main coastal dual carriageway (MA20) at the Leroy Merlin roundabout and it’s the first exit, and then they just on your right. We have used them for a few years and they do not move your car (we check the mileage as some companies take it offisite somewhere else and you find they have done several kms in it in your absence).      Barbara

Novo Parking is a great company – really friendly and very efficient – NOVOparking –novoparking@gmail.com http://www.novoparking.es/

I use Parking Red at Malaga airport, they are very reliable and reasonable,

a 3 day stay will be €13.
http://www.parkingred.com/
For a comprehensive list of all the parking companies go to the website
http://www.parkvia.com/en-GB
then put in Malaga as the location.    Jeff

(8)

We’ve used Platinum on numerous occasions – we hand over the keys outside departures and they’re there waiting for us whatever time of day or night we get back. Good value, friendly, always on time – great service. Platinumcarparking @ gmail.com

 

Thanks to everyone who so kindly responded to the plea for airport parking recommendations. In the interests of the “Editor’s Tolerance Rating” I shall publish no further ones.

Thanks again, Jane

Invitation to the Film Forum is open to all residents of Capistrano and their guests.
Readers and subscribers to DigameXtra are all guests and are welcome.
All films are shown in their original languages and are shown on a large screen

Friday, Jan. 22nd    The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)
(Italy, Spain – 182 min.) Western directed by Sergio Leone.

During the American Civil War, outlaws Tuco (Eli Wallach) and Blondie (Clint Eastwood), who have known each other for some time now having used the reward on Tuco’s head as a way of earning money, come across a dying man, Bill Carson (Antonio Casale), who tells them of a treasure in gold coins. By chance, he tells Tuco the name of the cemetery and tells Blondie the name of the grave where the gold is buried. Now rivals, the two men have good reason to keep each other alive. A third man, Angel Eyes (Lee Van Cleef), hears of the gold stash from someone he’s been hired to kill. All he knows is to look for for someone named Bill Carson. The three ultimately meet in a showdown that takes place amid a major battle between Confederate and Union forces.

With: Aldo Giuffré, Luigi Pistilli, Rada Rasimov. In English.
