amber08 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 newcastle but i have no idea how im going to get there yet or weher im going to stay ideas? Trains probably easiest to get up, failing that Im sure you can get a bus, depending on your budget, theres various hotels like Travel inns and Holiday inns and in the city centre there is a Euro Hostel.

pez Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 im ok for the trains cause my rail card makes it cheeper its just trying to find a cheep option for my mate who doesn't have a rail card and hasn't done one of these things, all the people i know going( other than darth kenny) are working it lol and as much as i don't mind going on my own its a bit of a pain trying to find people when im there... i sent her a text asking her idf she stil wants to come if not i'll just go on my bill and find smeones floor to crash on lol ( i'm sick of looking for hotels lol ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
touchthesky Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Elgin. We booked our tickets way in advance, plus we're using rail cards so only £18 each. Bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffy2k Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Is anyone else flying up from Luton on Saturday morning at all? not worried about the flight, not too sure about this bus though that only comes every 1/2 hour. Nicky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yesindeed Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 (edited) what bus are you talking about, is it the one from Glasgow airport? if it is don't worry it is like every half hour and only takes like 5 min to get to the center 100th POST WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Edited August 18, 2008 by yesindeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffy2k Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 yes it is the airport, if its only 5 mins not so bad, i had visions of going miles and getting off the wrong place or something. THanks for info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yesindeed Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 you cant miss it, the bus goes right around it and then drives into the center you'll have plenty of time to see it and get ready for your stop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! okay (puts on travel information uniform again) from glasgow airport its a straight bus to the center and its the number 747 (as in Boeing 747) getting to prestwick, this is where i get fuzzy (i know shock horror) what you will need to do is go into Glasgow city center the numbers 23,25 arriva going to glasgow (they also go to erskine aswell which you don't want!) and the 55/54 first bus will take you to central station, its a tricky stop so i would right this down, what your looking for is a sandstone building on your right, there should be a load of taxis waiting at a rank, there should also be a load of busses all sort of bottle necking this is your stop, if you pay attention and keep looking out the right hand side you should see signs saying (GLASGOW CENTRAL STATION) now i've never got the train to Prestwick but i know its the only Airport in Scotland with its own train station, consult the big board once your in glasgow central and you should be all set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
