Event details are confirmed for anyone wishing to attend our meetup.

Daytime

Meet will be at the Runway Visitor Park, members can arrive as early or as late as they wish. Information and directions can be found here https://www.manchesterairport.co.uk/at-the-airport/attractions/

Group Concorde Tour

Several members (but not all) have booked onto the 14:00 Concorde Platinum tour. This is now sold out however slot remains available for the 10:30 Classic tour and their 20-minute short tours at 11:30, 12:00, 13:30 and 16:00. If you wish to take this opportunity to see G-BOAC close up, book directly via their website https://www.runwayvisitorpark.co.uk/bookings/book-a-tour/

Evening Meal

Courtesy of UKV6540, We have private use of the Panoramic Lounge at the Manchester Airport pub for meals and drinks from 5:30 pm. Food must be ordered by 6 pm due to how busy the pub is and the size of the group. If you haven't already expressed interest in joining this, please do so on the forum so we can manage space and numbers

Accommodation

For those staying over, a variety of options exist, many of the group have booked Premier Inn at Heald Green or Manchester Airport North which is within walking distance from the Runway Visitor Park. I'm sure many staying over will find a local bar in a hotel or otherwise later in the evening.

Transport

We have people coming from local and afar by various means, where able to reduce vehicle footprint, I'm sure options exist and can be discussed closer to the time. Parking at Runway Park is no issue but the Airport Pub would be better to car share for those staying locally.

Communications

For those attending, we have a chat group channel on the Fly UK Discord page as well as a WhatsApp group. Details for these are available on the below forum thread
