Star Wars Hobby Weekend Transport Plan

[noyjatatParticipant 16155xp 0]

Hello fellow CoG and OTTers

I thought it might be useful to have a separate post for organising transport from the airport to River House.

I have opened this in general discussion to allow everyone access.

Please feel free to copy/paste below your flight details and if you want to buddy up for taxis, normally around £60 each way.

Friday Easyjet flight: U2 257 arrive 0840

Sunday Easyjet flight: U2 260 departs 1530

Happy to share taxi costs.

Taxi A: Approx 0915 departure from Belfast International

I look forward to seeing you all at the event!

I’m arriving at Belfast Airport on Thursday afternoon at 18:30 and I’ve rented a car so happy to give lifts if anyone else is arriving on Thursday and Flying out on Sunday on the 21:10 flight.

I don’t think I’ll be attending this one, but my 40k hobby weekend project (https://www.beastsofwar.com/project/1427037/) reviews the trains to Coleraine, the hotel I stayed in and where I ate while I was there. Hopefully it may prove useful to someone.

im attending, no idea on where to stay though? what’s people’s norm? I’m happy to get an air b&b though as that’s quite simple

@collins Air b&b might be a good idea to contact @laughingboy on that one, he has sampled a few and had good and bad.

Premier Inn is ok, bars not bad , breakfast is excellent, plus there is a retail parkm mc’d’s Burger King, Chip shop, etc right next door.

@collins I am staying in the Premier Inn, its a ten minute walk away so bring a coat hehe.

 

I have also stayed at an Air BnB there in that past which was perfect for my needs

Been having a thunk (stop screaming @warzan)

As not much clone wars extra stuff for Hobby weekend going to be doing mainly ( rubs trousers and heads for loo) Originals trilogy era but based around Rogue One as mentioned before, found a bonus to this when looking at Rebel uniforms( nearly uniform more like) which have more of a Vietnam in the boonies type look. So think apart from smocks, wont have to faff with camo and can go for a sci fi version of Vietnam……. which err see you on Discord!!!

[collins 16359xp 1]

Rouge One was basically Vietnam in space. look at the role of the U-Wing, if that’s not the space stand-in for a Huey I don’t know what is. FFG have already made the rouge one troopers too. they’re called ‘rebel pathfinders’ they look cool but I have not figured out how to use them in game yet 🙁

Flights booked, getting in 1pm on Thursday so will most likely take a train in, staying at the Premier Inn as well, looking forward to meeting everyone!

[bobcockayne 20723xp 0]

@omega1976 is that at Belfast International?

If so if no delays I will be arriving roughly the same time from Birmingham, and am at same hotel so if you like we can share taxi from station to hotel.

[omega1976 2169xp 0]

@bobcockayne Yes it is international, sounds like a good plan!

[bobcockayne 20723xp 0]

@omega1976 ok will sort out where we meet nearer time, probably the bus stop outside airport for the bus to train station at a guess.

necro on this thread incase people still need to arrange lift shares etc

[noyjatatParticipant 16155xp 0]

I arrive at 0840 Friday morning and I have booked a hire car so if people need a lift drop me a message
