Luton Airport with Free Parking & Only a Small Walk

I know you are looking for ‘free parking’, and the main part of that is ‘free’ parking. But bear with me and hear me out as I explain why I suggest you pay for a shuttle ticket.
I have found you completely free parking where you can walk into the airport on foot, BUT it’s up to a 35-minute walk, most of which is along a dual carriageway. Now, do you really want to start your holiday this way?
By spending £3.80 on an open-ended return shuttle ticket, you can A. make the big saving on parking, as you were hoping to do, and B. Not have a long walk to the airport.
Hopefully, you agree with me. See below
