Manchester Airport parking company Jet Parks Manchester is using ANPR to identify vehicles.
Customers should provide car registration number details at the time of booking so that the machine at the car park entrance will recognise their car and the barrier will lift automatically, allowing entry and exit.
Arrival instructions:
Customers should bring a copy of their booking confirmation with them to the car park.
The car park has automatic number plate recognition (ANPR). Take a ticket at the barrier, which will lift automatically when it recognises the number plate. The customer then just drives in and parks.
If the barrier doesn't lift, customers should scan the barcode on their booking confirmation at the barrier. If there's no barcode, press the help button.
Departure instructions:
Customers should drive to the exit barrier. If the barrier doesn't lift automatically, they should scan the barcode on their booking confirmation or press the help button.

Anti terrorism training for AVPCA members
The new valet parking association at Gatwick (www.AVPCA.co.uk) has agreed to send their staff on anti terrorism training with local police.
The aim of the training is to add awareness of terrorist threats and increase the numbers of eyes and ears assisting local Police in their duty, whilst also building bridges of trust and friendship between the Gatwick valet parking teams and the local Police.
AVPCA members employ more than 200 staff at Gatwick, and as all member companies operate 24 hours per day the staff they employ will add a significant number of trained and knowledgeable people to the efforts already being made to ensure that Gatwick is a safe place to travel through.
