Transportation/Auto

I have rented a car for pick up at the airport on Thursday morning through my departure on Tuesday morning. The car is listed as a 5 passenger. However, with luggage it probably can only get 3 people from the airport. There are now 6 DIMs on the same flight on Wednesday night. I can probably take 2 passengers (plus me as driver) and luggage to an apartment. Kevin and Betty: I can probably pick you up at the airport on Friday morning since I think you are the only DIMs on that flight. Since I am flying home on Tuesday, I will not be able to drive anyone to the airport for a Wednesday or later departure. If I have read the lodging description correctly, the second apartment includes parking. LQE - how would I confirm how many parking spots are available? Go Kevin!

WOW! Dan is a DIM Blogger! I myself resisted for a short time, but found it is useful for posting pix and large amounts of info. Now we have everything in one place. I am still looking forward to spontaneous e-mail chatter for fun or craic!

Even though I am LPW, I will comment on the parking at Parliament St. Our contact there is very slow to respond to our emails (no phone number so far), but I will ask her about reserving a parking spot when she finally tells us how to send the deposit.!!

That is wonderful that you have rented a car. Clearly, Mom and Dad would be your passengers! I will not be renting a car, guessing that Tom and Nancy might not either. I had already looked into public transport from the airport to City Center which will work fine. But perhaps the three of us "southpaws" can even share a taxi together.

as you see from the comments from LPOTW, she is in communication with the parliament street accomodations
I will check if the christchurch accomodations has parking---it didn't say so in the description
