How to get there
 

Anyone going to the 8th November 2003 event knows how to get there on public transport from either Hatton Cross tube station or LHR central tube station (Terms 1,2,3)?
Any info much appreciated.
Looking forward to attending..., just bought me ticket over the fone this mornin.. :D

Hey there.

Im flying down from Newcastle on BA1327/29 on the friday and stopping over on the night time in the renaissance hotel and flying home on the saturday night.

Let me know if you've found any travel info as im going to have to get there from LHR terminal 1!

Cheers

Will let you know if I find something out.
Apparently there is some sort of "hotel hoppa" bus service from LHR terminals to hotels in the airport area, I'll investigate this a bit more and let you know.
See ya there! ;)

Ok, this what I found on the BAA website.
There should be a Hotel Hoppa service (726) from LHR terminals 1,2,3 bus station (central bus station) going to the Renaissance LHR, the service also runs to and from Hatton Cross tube station which is good for me :ok:
Frequencies are about every 14mins from 05:30 to 23:30 hours approximately

Tickets seem to cost £3.00 each way.. :ouch: if on a *very* tight budget (e.g. meself) , but if there's no other way might just as well

I think this helps :), well then definitely see y'all there

Free Tickets?
 

Ok, so I sound like a ponce, can anyone spare a free ticket that they aint gonna use for the 8th November Show?
Anyone got any complimentry tickets they don't need?

ta
:O

Thanks for your help cesco and will probobly see you there! I think i'll be gettin that bus through from T1 as i dont fancy trying to dodge the traffic! Unless there are walkways :confused:

I have a limited number of complimentary tickets, pm me with a postal address, and I will send one on.

You're not the oldest that I know of!

See you all there!!!

:) :ok: :p

I would love to attend but alas my head will be buried deep in ATPL notes on that day, so if anyone would care to share their thoughts after the event they would be appreciated.

I will try to attend next year. I assume there will be one next year ? :hmm:

I haven't been to any shows like this before, but was wondering if there is a dress code? ie shirt and tie

Thanks

Well I went in shirt / tie in April and found many people in smart casual, so that is what I'm going to be doing this time...

Should be there at around 10am, oops better go and buy my tickets first!

Anyone meeting up for lunch on the 8th November?

Best wishes,

Charlie Zulu.

I am going to be there on the 8th and would like to meet with some fellow ppruners for lunch if anyone else is up for it!!

I'll be up for some lunch. Never been to this show before, or the Hotel, or Heathrow - so anyone want to suggest a meeting place, place etc?

royal mail strike?
 

Anyone had their ticket delivery affected by the Royal Mail strike?
I was expecting my ticket to be w/me by now... :{

PS I'll join all of you for lunch *if* the ticket makes it to me by next Friday.. :ugh:

I had been panicking yesterday that my tickets wouldn't arrive in time but then I got my tickets (sent second class, which seems to take weeks were I live) in the post today, approximately ten minutes earlier the optometrists had informed me that I have a muscle imbalance in my eyes that is outside of the CAA class one limits, so now I have somehing else to panic about:(
I've got my first ever medical in two weeks, then again I may not have, depending on what happens when the Opto bloke at the CAA decides, after my frantic phone call today!


Anyone else living in "interesting times"?

Hi All

Im off to the show also and travelling from Worcester. If anyone wants to share transport, get in touch. Id be keen to meet some people off the group, perhaps for lunch. Anyone fancy it?

Out of interest, im 29, close to finishing PPL and heading to the show to get a better idea of whats involved in a future career in aviation.

I will be there. To answer any questions about PPRuNe and anything else if I can.

Have a good day.

What are the chances of getting a ticket and it being delivered by sat? Or... will i be able to pay at the door?

Cheers

The website says you can pay at the door!
