Driving yourself sounds great, doesn’t it? You control the music, the AC, the snacks. But Luton’s drop-off zone is a trap. It costs money—like £5 for ten minutes. Ouch.
Parking is expensive, too. You’ll pay £20-£30 a day for the privilege of leaving your car in a giant concrete field. And traffic on the M1? It can be a nightmare. One crash and you’re watching your flight board from your rearview mirror.
Honestly? Only drive if you’re a group of four, or you have heavy luggage that smells like a wet dog. Otherwise, save your sanity and your wallet.
