Someone told me today that they’d been quoted £3500 for a 12 seater.


It would work out cheaper for a bigger plane per passenger

I think you need to look at a boring 737 or Airbus 320/319. The numbers might make it viable.

I think the only thing stopping it would be the airport being closed for the evening.
Think the last flights around 10pm at Humberside

Please get a bigger plane after what happened last year with that Cardiff player from France.


It was over 4 years ago and the size of the of plane wasn't the issue.

Thinking about the fares RyanAir/Easyjet charge surely it cannot cost the earth to charter a plane that size. £25/£30 each way perperson plus a bus £5 each way, say £100 including a ticket. I think it's something Town should look at as I feel sure they would fill at least 2 planes if not more.

Two of us approached an amateur flyer friend to see about him flying us to Exeter away. He was up for it for just the cost of the fuel but enquiries showed he would have needed a commercial pilot's licence.

We were looking to go from Full Sutton airfield to Newton Abbot racecourse and then by taxi to Exeter.

All so we could be first on the 'Just Back' thread.
