Guest westoncider Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Well lads and lasses I booked my flight going about a few months ago for sixteen pounds fifty pence ONE WAY I was going to come back by train Unfortunatly I now have another engagement in the afternoon I e-mailed easy jet asking if i could travel up on 0720am flight arriving 0825am the return flight with the same plane is 0850am back in bristol 1000am Easy jet said no to my request cos I need FORTY MINUTES check in time Having said all that if any one is interested in a group photo of the plane flyers to Hartlepool So I can post on the forum If any one wants a free lift to the airport enough space for two only Please drop a note in the private box ← I take it you are travelling on sat 22nd for the hartlepool game,It seems a bit strange that you are booked on the 7.25am flight from bristol as the first flight out that day is at 8.25am .I think you had better check your timetable??????????????????????????????????? yours westoncider, trying to be helpful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it all starts over.... I'm just guessing, but perhaps the flight he has suggested is indeed a little too early for this seasons game up there?

Anyone want a lift to the airport? I believe NTTDS has a couple of spare places (that's if Edson and richieb haven't already bagged them?).

Guest bristolbred Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 So, did you manage to get the same plane back??. I have done Prague, going EMA-PRG-EMA, on the same plane, and the same day, but only as BmiBaby were launching flights from Gatwick, so we had to wait for the plane to go PRG-LGW-PRG, giving us a "delay" in Prague of 7 hours, just enough time for a meal, some beers and a little shopping, plus a voucher for a free flight thrown in too!!, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suffolkred Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Well I for one won't be taking it up. I have only travelled on CATS twice. Cardiff and Swansea, and that is because it was the only way to see the game.Living in London I'd be mad to drive to Bristol to use a £10 voucher (I'd still have to pay the extra) to get the coach to the game.Or maybe I should. Maybe I could use it for the Brentford game....←The madness is spreading!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chivs Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I was only thinking of this thread earlier this morning!!One thing that has nagged me for so long (like a wobbly tooth) is the first reply from BTR_FTG.He says:Nearest I could decode was that you proposed to fly up & back on the same flight even though you wouldn't get to the game. Is that right? If so, you SHOULD be able to do this if you're NOT checking in baggage, fairly standard proceedure for me on short hops in Europe with most airlines.A fairly standard procedure? We all recognise NTTDS special abilities but is there a whole club of people flying out and back to Europe on the same plane?And what are they doing?Sometimes I just feel so alone.

havanatopia Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Wants to fly up to Newcastle then come straight back again, the plane that takes him up is the same plane that comes back at 0850, but they wont let him because he would need 40 mins checking in and the plane is only on yhe ground for 25 minutes.←why would anyone in their right mind want to fly up and back without spending time at destination. what exactly is the point unless of course the chap has never flown before and then i could follow the obscure logic but only just.

lukejones2 Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 When is the match being played- or has it been played? Was it last season or this? ......... I need a lie-down←It'll be played soon. I think it was delayed as a number of fans had difficulties getting into Hartlepool. don't worry, I called them and they said that my original plane ticket is valid for the next game date.

A Horse With No Name Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 why would anyone in their right mind want to fly up and back without spending time at destination. what exactly is the point unless of course the chap has never flown before and then i could follow the obscure logic but only just. ←NTTDS is a very regular traveller by air, and is actually a Bristol City employee.
