Heya too tall.
Thought i would leave some info here.
1)megabus doesnt go mk anymore, i asked about this to megabus but they dont go there anymore.
2)the mk coachway closed on 26th april this year.
The nearest mk coachway is now interim coachway, in mk (campbell park) so any buses to central mk have to be gotten from there.

ive had to plan hard this year so hopefully this will help anyone who is planning to come down by coach to mk. I hope this was okay to put this here....

That's what this topic is here for, to gather current info.

Thanks a bunch for the update.

[maegurwen]

thats okay. I hope it was useful.

I'm thinking of attending, but live in the US.  If I order tickets for photo op's (or other tickets that are usually sent by registered mail)  how will that work for an overseas attendee?

They will still be mailed to you.

If postal service doesn't deliver the letter in time, you need to bring a print out of your order e-mail, some form of ID and ideally the credit card statement showing the charge with you. The crew members will sort you out then.

When will we know what days the guests are doing?.

You can still get buses to and from outside Entrance 5 (Mcdonalds) the new interim coachway is over a mile away from the centre, and so is a pain to get to the con from on foot, especially if your staying in a hotel nearby for the night and have to drag Suitcases and bags along as well.

I know it's an unusually short list that close to the event, but I haven't heard differently about guest days than what's posted posted above:

SM will update the website once a guests days are confirmed. This is normally not until about 2 weeks before the show.

So days should be starting to be posted towards the end of the week.

im only bringing a small backpack and a larger bag for my clothes really. or i might bring two similar size shoulder bags. If i can get that right, i might just walk it. I have walked from my freinds to my house before and thats over three miles and took me an hour.....lol. ( i need the exercise anyway.)

[TurkFox]

I walked from the new coachway to the centre on the Thursday night last time (to meet a friend to walk to our hotel). Only took me 10/15 minutes and I had a big case on wheels and a rucksack.

[maegurwen]

I havent got a case on wheels unfortuantly..lol. I pack light anyways
