The survey was conducted by YouGov in conjunction with British Airport Authorities. It highlights the most stressful airport parking experiences as the difficulty in finding a space, fitting into spaces and trying to remember where you parked.

Almost half of respondents said that showing where free spaces were would substantially reduce the stress of airport parking, while 42% said that being able to know how many spaces are available on each level of a car park would help.
