This is such a great idea - but only in the UK would our definition of romance include getting to Upminster for departure. What with the delights of nearby Barking, Ilford, Basildon and the hinterlands of south Essex - it will truly be a remarkable experience for the passengers.

If it ever flies.

It is company policy not to fly the airship in speeds greater than 25 knots approx 28mph. The airship also does not like rain.
Ermmmmmmmmm. Are they in the right country ? The first 3 days of ops are showing as red lights on the website...........I understand this to mean a weather cancellation. Or is there some other "business" happening over south Essex way ?
