More car parks=more competition= cheaper prices

There is a clear need for this facility. Prices are reasonable unlike the airport who put up their prices and removed the minibus facility. I was fed up getting soaked walking to the terminial, good luck with the appeal

Without any other choice of car parking available, BCA are just monopolising the situation which is unfair and unacceptable

I have always used Boals as it is reasonably priced unlike the City Airport which I will never use. Obviously the City Airport doesnt like good competition

What a disgrace, the city airport parking rates are an absolute ripoff. Good Luck with beating this corruption!

Disgraceful decision! Usually use BFS or Dublin - will definitely do so now that the ridiculous cost of parking at Gity airport is taken into account.

DISGRACE , I NEVER GO TO BELFAST CITY AS THE PARKING IS RIDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE AND I AM A VERY FREQUENT FLYER. DECIDED THIS TIME TO GO TO CITY AND THEN U CLOSE THE BOAL CAR PARK DOWN. THIS CAR PARK NEEDS TO BE RE-OPENED TO GET MORE PEOPLE FLYING FROM CITY, I WOULD DRIVE TO DUBLIN QUICKER THAN PAYIN £25 FOR 1 DAY PARKING

So the use didn't match the planning permission - fair enough, but why not just a simple review/application for the correct planning permission, which lets face it should absolutely be approved as the airport needs competition, and let's crack on. Get in the real world and make sensible decisions please.

I have used the boal Airport car park on the recommendation of a friend. I was about to book it for a few days in August. We found it very reasonably priced and the shuttle bus was very reliable. I was very dissapointed when I was about to book it on line. I think it is much needed for people like me who can't afford to pay out large amounts of money for parking.

I do not live in the Greater Belfast area but I do need to fly from Belfast City airport. I have used the carparks on the site of Belfast City Airport for many years. In recent years I have found that their provision for disabled parking is far from satisfactory. This has resulted in me having sever problems in walking to the terminal. The cost has increased markedly especially when comparing the parking cost with Belfast City Airport where competion appears to have kept the cost within a reasonable range. The provision of Boal's carpark at the City airport will provide competition and it will provide a more reliable way for disabled travellers to access the terminal at a much more realistic cost. With the closure of Boal's carpark the City Airport has a monoply on parking which is only good for the airport. Public transport (unless using taxis) does not provide a satisfactory way of accessing the airport for disabled passengers.

This is scandalous. I have used this service many times and have always noted a large number of vehicles. If there is no need then the Boal carpark would be empty. People can vote with their wallets and businesses must be free to compete in an open market.

There is a need as the parking on-site is too expensive and will get even more expensive with no competition.

Unfortunately as Boal Car Park is currently not operational for the most ridiculous reason ever I have had to book the airport long stay car park for a weekend break at a cost of £29.95. This cost is outrageous & I would not have had to pay this if I were able to book Boal. Boal is needed as comptition to keep prices competitve and give customers choice.

There most certaintly is a need for an off site car park at Belfast City Airport. I have used Boal in the past & find the service excellent.

Flying weekly from Belfast City airport I rely on Boal car park for affordable car parking. It is ludicrous that they are forced to close. This will give Belfast City airport a monopoly on car parking. Watch the prices go up!
