Who’s flying to Southampton on Saturday?

Post by 1989_claret » Tue Oct 31, 2017 8:27 pm

Anyone else flying down on Saturday? Me and my old man are flying there and back from Manchester. Can’t grumble at little over £100 return.

Walk back to Southampton Central then get the train which takes 7 minutes. The trains to the airport are every 5 minutes.

I'd go to central station. It's about the same distance as st denys. However, there's only 1-2 trains an hour that go from st denys to the airport. Plenty more from central.

Dougie will be , never misses a match. His Missus is picking him up on his return to Manchester and then they are going to a 70th. birthday celebration near Hebden Bridge, A long day but worth it if we win.

Four of us flying down on Friday morning from Manchester, return flights Sunday. We paid just over £100. Flight time 30 min, just enough time for a power nap and a beer before breakfast in Southampton.
