seregon Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 So, how many of us are going straight from the gig back to Zurich airport? And... is it definitely straight to the airport or do we want to sit in a park somewhere for a while first to remember the delights of the UFO? I actually have no idea what I'm doing if I don't hear back from my cousin.. looks like I may have to kip in the airport with you guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RocketBabeDoll Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Just been on the phone to my mum, sounds like a possibility This may mean I won't be able to do the first Paris date though.. Good find Pip, bit of a pain Luton don't fly to Basel. Looks like this is the main rail site: https://www.sbb.ch Having a struggle trying to find out the prices though! Well i live in Zurich and i would recomend to fly to Zurich and the trains from Zurich to Bern are every 1 or half hour and it takes only about 2 hours, i go with the train its very comfy and cheap;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For someone from abroad it's everything else than cheap... RockDoll, do you wanna come with me and pick up the guys from England at the airport? I meet all my people later in Bern. They all come from diffent directions (Lucerne, Solothurn, Bern, Basel...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh right ok. Yeah, it's the same with going to London I guess. It costs me £18 to get to London but about £10 to Birmingham, I live a lot closer to London!

I should book my flight soon ^^ It's not getting cheaper. And I'm still not sure whether I should go see them on both days in London or just the 11th... especially since I go to Milan as well.

(without tube) I think that's only if you use the Gatwick Express though. I can get a return from Worthing to Victoria for less than that. It's on the same line.

Gatwick also goes to other London stops like London bridge, it's a slower train. I know cause it's direct from Luton/Bedford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know cause it's direct from Luton/Bedford Yeah that's correct. There is a coach too which is cheaper and a bit slower. So far we didn't have the time to do that the 3 times I landed there. Maybe this time we don't land so late like before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
