I'm still on. And now no longer with my 17 years old VW Golf but with a 15 year young Renault. For those that have already had the pleasure of being driven around in my VW Golf, your next trip will be much better still.
What time are people arriving and departing as potentially it looks like i could do it....
My ETA is pretty much 1.5 hours after I roll out of bed. Will be early(-ish ;)).

Hi all,
for the next few days/weeks/months I will be without internet. Depending on how fast the helpdesk at my provider is. I have left my company email adress with LBArules since he seems to be the one organising the gig.
I WILL come, but it will be with ye olde VW Golf again as the Renault I bought has been sold already. Some maintenance issues I am not willing to face.

Prices I think are still good with easyjet at the moment, I booked Amsterdam last week for the 17th Jan and got a day return for 35 quid.
bmi-star...take plenty of cash to torp, the airport and sanedfjord town centre are seriosuly expensive. Think its about 10 degrees below at the moment as well. There isnt a huge amount to do in the town and a taxi costs about 15 quid, so if you only have a few hours its probably not worth it.

Early flight into Manchester then onto AMS RIPConcorder?
I searched all over the place a couple of months ago for flights, the problem is that as it's a Saturday there is less flights. Hopefully it can be repeated in the summer and then I can either hope on Flyglobespan or whatever. ;)

Kickstarting this thread again.
So far I can only see 2 confirmed visitors? LBARULES and DC10FAN both on the JET2 LBA-AMS flight ETA AMS 0915. Can I expect anyone else to come over, and if so at what time(s)?

If I could go the only reason i go to AMS is to look around the city and to see KLM's Fokkers :) and A330

Bring this back up once again...
Seems amazing that when I started this thread, it was about 8 months away, now is just over a month!
Anyone else up for a day in AMS?

I'm so gutted I can't make this one, but then again the work I'm doing instead will fund other trips. One of them being the DUB meet in February!

Am I right that those that are actually coming will be coming for one day only? Otherwise getting a restaurant may be necessary?

Aww, I was planning a weekend trip to Amsterdam a few months back for my birthday next week, but it never happened as I'm too busy with school.
