Airport Parking and Hotels Awarded Safer Shopping Recognition For Website

Airport Parking and Hotels (APH), the UK long stay airport parking specialist (http://www.aph.com/information/airport_parking.htm) has been given the Internet Shopping is Safe (ISIS) accreditation. This offers customers that extra peace of mind when booking through the company's website which offers a comprehensive range of travel extras (http://www.aph.com/information/travel_extras.htm). The ISIS accreditation is awarded by the Interactive Media Retail Group (IMRG) to websites that pass a series of tests to prove that they operate in a decent, honest, truthful and legal manner. In order to receive the award www.aph.com has been reviewed and will continue to be monitored by IMRG.

London, Holborn (PRWEB) May 13, 2007 -- Nick Caunter, managing director, APH said: "There has been some recent bad press in which rogue car park operators have fooled customers into parting with their money and their cars which were not securely parked. We understand that many people will want to feel safer when pre-booking airport parking this year. We have focused on two areas to help guide anxious customers; first, car parks with the Park Mark Safer Parking Award and now the Internet Shopping Is Safe accreditation - I would recommend that travellers look for both these accreditations when making bookings this summer."
