Airport parking- different return airport

We are flying out of Gatwick and returning to Heathrow.

Our plan was to use an airport hotel with parking but forgot about the different airports... does anyone know of a company that can do this, or what our best option would be please?

When we looked into options a couple of years ago, having your car transported between was possible but quite expensive - you can drop off at Gatwick and have someone drive the car to Heathrow.

We opted to have me and the kids do public transport to Gatwick, hubbie parked at Heathrow and got bus transfer to Gatwick - this was all done the day before the flight and then we stayed at a Gatwick hotel. We used Heathrow longstay and didn't link it to a hotel booking.

Thanks for the reply.
We might need to consider an airport transfer instead of hotel and parking as it's going to awkward I think. Unless of course the airport's change back next summer to Gatwick... Might hold on a bit and see what happens early next year.

What airline are you flying with? If BA you'll be able to get a flight back to Gatwick in the summer, I've got one booked for September.

There was a similar thread the other day, the consensus was to arrive at your departure airport, drop the party off, 1 person drive to the arrival airport, park the car. Obtain cans of G&T, drink them whilst on transferring back to meet family.

Love this idea, but remember drinking is not allowed on TFL services (the tube). Obviously, you could pour G&T into an empty sprite/7-up bottle and no one would be the wiser :-)
