DD_Arthur Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Oh, oh! Have received my admission ticket for Saturday's Flying Leg-ends via registered mail. Today was another warm, bright day too. Starting to get excited. Quote

2. Administrators Jabo Posted March 15, 2013 Author 2. Administrators Posted March 15, 2013 If you've yet to book a room, you're too late. I checked with the hotel this afternoon and they're fully booked for Friday/Saturday night. Jabo Quote

Sweper Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 I want to book my flight ticket soon. Any suggestions of activity after Duxford yet? I think last year was a blast, and I´ll do it again. Quote
Sweper Posted April 9, 2013 Posted April 9, 2013 Ok, now you have to take care of me for one week mates Booked my flight tickets today and I will arrive at Stansted on thursday july 11 at 7:15 pm Back home friday july 19 from Stansted at 3:15 pm Cheers Quote
Eshark Posted April 10, 2013 Posted April 10, 2013 Ok chaps Iam afraid I have a guest coming with me so the room share is no longer available sorry. Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted April 10, 2013 Author 2. Administrators Posted April 10, 2013 Had you agreed to share with anyone Dom? *** EDIT *** Never mind, I can see you had a share available. @Swep - good news m8. now all we need is for some kind person to rescue a dog in distress from Stanstead. Jabo P.S. That's 14 from this side of the herring pond if everyone turns up. Any news from the NA/Canadian contingent? Quote
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted April 10, 2013 1. DDz Quorum Posted April 10, 2013 ánd we need one to put him back in distress at Stanstead that Friday (...) @Swep - good news m8. now all we need is for some kind person to rescue a dog in distress from Stanstead. Jabo (...) Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted April 10, 2013 Author 2. Administrators Posted April 10, 2013 Yes, that too. Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted May 1, 2013 Author 2. Administrators Posted May 1, 2013 Just had a missive from tfc to say ticket sales are about 20% up on the same time last year for Saturday. Time to consider buying in advance? I probably will Quote
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted May 1, 2013 1. DDz Quorum Posted May 1, 2013 You mean there's a chance they'll run out of 'm? ... wow... Going for both days then? Thanks for the heads-up! Quote
Sweper Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Is´nt it cheaper if we buy in advance, as a group? Quote
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted May 1, 2013 1. DDz Quorum Posted May 1, 2013 Hm, could be, too bad I just booked 2 day pass ... Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted May 1, 2013 Author 2. Administrators Posted May 1, 2013 Not really Swep, we need at least ten people to get any sort of saving, and then someone has to pay and collect cash - not sure its a viable option... Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted May 2, 2013 Author 2. Administrators Posted May 2, 2013 I'll call the IWM tomorrow morning to see what the block booking thing looks like. Looks like about £58 for a two day pass for non-wrinklies at this point. Quote
BluBear Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 That reminds me, I've not booked mine yet! 70 days to go... Quote
Sweper Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 How does it work? If I try to book via Fighter Collection.com I can´t see any prices and only one day at time can be booked. Yes, I´m logged in. On iwm.org I can see the prices and they also mention that if I book through them I get reduced price for two days booked in advance. But the link to the booking doesn´t work. Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted May 2, 2013 Author 2. Administrators Posted May 2, 2013 Hold on until I've spoken to them Swep, there will be full info here later! Quote
2. Administrators Jabo Posted May 2, 2013 Author 2. Administrators Posted May 2, 2013 This year's poster - Can anyone spot the deliberate mistake? Quote
BluBear Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 I noticed this on the key forums. How could they possibly get it wrong?! I mean, it looks like a photo as well! I know Lee's Hope (the P-40F in background) had a few incorrect markings when it arrived, but I can't remember it extending to under side? For clarification... It should be: =*= US ARMY not: ARMY US =*= Quote
Sweper Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 Hold on until I've spoken to them Swep, there will be full info here later! Jaa. Quote

2. Administrators Jabo Posted May 3, 2013 Author 2. Administrators Posted May 3, 2013 OK, group booking info; Group size needs to be 10 or more; Daily charge (adults) - £27.60 (single advance ticket £30) - 2 days therefore is £55.20 Daily charge (seniors (60 and over) - £22.05 (single advance ticket £24) - 2 days therefore is £44.10 OR Adult 2 Day ticket - £58.65 (Advance bookings only - no group rates) Senior 2 Day ticket - £46.90 (Advance bookings only - no group rates) So group booking is marginally cheaper, but I think the extra admin outweighs the cost advantage. What do you guys think? Jabo Quote
Sweper Posted May 3, 2013 Posted May 3, 2013 Thanks for checking Nick. It is a no go then. It is not worth the few £ and more work me think. So, where is the best place to book tickets in advance? Quote
