Whenever we fly from Manchester Airport, we always book JetParks 3 for our airport parking. We’ve been using it for at least five years now and, although we always compare the different parking options before we book, we keep coming back to JetParks 3 because it’s easy, reasonably priced and we’ve never had a bad experience with it.

I originally wrote this post back in 2019 after realising, while travelling to Los Angeles with my then 16-year-old daughter, that she was actually a more confident traveller than I was.

Sometimes, when you’re traveling, you take a photo that you just want to share with the world – Sunday Snapshot is about doing exactly that… Or it used to be before life (and a global pandemic) got in the way.
