So you can knock another £22.95 off this price. Good deal! Al Looks like we're gonna take the long way home 2night...  | |

Only difference is that Easyjet is operating through Luton as opposed to Heathrow, and the times are not as travel friendly. Either way, great value!!

I've been thinking about it all day, but I think im going to end with a no.
There is too much hassle for me, a non driver to get to a airport which is not close and back and all the problems i'm likely in Paris to encur. Plus I'm already missing enough of uni for the London shows! 
Still in my dreams I will be there. | |

Anji said: I doubt you'll miss much, at uni that is! So true, but it is my final year, I have to show some willingness to learn. And going from Birmingham is too expensive, thats really the only airport I can get to term time. Still I would LOVE to go! only 58 mins for £500 to fall out of the sky now! | |

Even from B'ham you could manage the experience for under £150 and still have the most amazing time. Provided of corse that you are an NPGMC premium member. Students always have a little debt to pay off anyways... | |

It's tempting, what about the Eurostar? | |

Not sure how much that would be, or where exactly it gets into but basically it's reasonably cheap (although not as cheap as the flights mentioned excluding travel to/from airports) + it's bound to be reasonably close by to the action...

Scratch that, it's 80 quid and only if you are under 26. It does put you right in the middle of Paris from the Middle of London. | |

If you got the spectacle we had in 1998 (and didn't leave early for the aftershow that didn't happen) it's worth it. udo Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |
