PARIS (January 24, 2019) - TravelCar, the global innovator in airport parking and carsharing for travelers, announced it has partnered with French airline XL Airways, which specializes in serving long-haul leisure destinations, to offer low-cost parking solutions to its airline passengers.
As a rising start-up, TravelCar has set the benchmarks in the parking industry with more than 500,000 parking spaces in 59 countries. The parking lots, located on and off-airport globally, are secured 24/7. XL Airways carries nearly 800,000 passengers a year to the Caribbean, Indian Ocean, Dominican Republic, Mexico, the United States and China.
For this partnership, TravelCar offers two parking solutions when XL Airways passengers fly:
· Free Parking: Car owners who agree their car can be rented by other travelers benefit from free airport parking. If their vehicle is rented, the car owner is paid for every mile driven. Owners can travel with ease knowing their car is protected with TravelCar’s insurance and is covered against theft and physical damage. If the car is not rented, they still benefit from free parking.
· Paid Parking: Car owners who prefer not to share their car will receive the lowest airport parking rates guaranteed. XL Airways travelers compare and book their parking space and benefit from preferential parking rates with a 10% discount.
In addition to offering vehicle owners competitively priced parking, TravelCar provides a number of additional services when parking their vehicles (car wash, full of gas, etc.) to meet the needs of travelers. XL Airways passengers from all countries benefit from new options to make their journey easier. The offer is offered via a dedicated page on the XL Airways website, in French and in English, including the TravelCar parking booking engine and via a banner on the boarding pass: https://www.xl.com/en/service-partners / reservation-parking.
By integrating the TravelCar service, the airline broadens the range of services to its customers while respecting its strategic line: a quality experience at affordable rates.
For TravelCar, this collaboration allows for more precise targeting of XL Airways' customers and offers them the best parking solution upstream of their trip.
"With its low fares, XL Airways allows its passengers not to spend the budget of the holidays on parking, but in their stay. TravelCar has the same philosophy, which is why we wanted our passengers to benefit from their offer with a 10% discount, "explains Stéphanie Cordier, Head of Marketing and Communication XL Airways.
"Our latest survey revealed that 64% of travelers come to the airport with a car. Parking at the airport is an important lever to promote the satisfaction of travelers. We are proud to share with XL Airways the same DNA of providing our customers with a quality experience at the best price, "said Lotfi Louez, co-founder and CMO of TravelCar.

2022 Charlotte Douglas International Airport Report of Achievement
Giving back to the community is central to what Charlotte Douglas International Airport and its operator, the City of Charlotte Aviation Department, is about, and last year was no different.
Throughout 2022, while recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, we continued our efforts to have a positive impact on the Charlotte community. Of particular note, we spent the year sharing stories of how Connections Don't Just Happen at the Terminal - from creating homeownership and employment opportunities to supporting economic growth through small-business development and offering outreach programs to help residents understand the Airport better.
This whitepaper highlights the construction projects, initiatives, programs and events that validate Charlotte Douglas as a premier airport.
