tobi778 0 #3 November 13, 2003 Ouch! Thats expensive Are you sure there aren't any cheaper airlines? Depending on the season you can usually get a return ticket to the US (FL) from Finland for about 500-1000$. Last time I went I paid 220$ but that was a once in a lifetime price I am afraid Sweden is even closer so you would think that it wouldn't be more expensive anyway...

teresaclegg 0 #6 November 13, 2003 Hey - looks fantastic. Where is the nearest airport anyway: Stockholm? Maybe flights from the UK will be more reasonable than from the US. Thanks----------------------------------------------------------- GirlGuide/ The Lone Wanderer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teresaclegg 0 #7 November 13, 2003 Hey - I just looked on ebookers for myself: Flights from London to Stockholm are 85 pounds ($120?). If you can get a cheap flight to UK - it's only 'bout 3 hours away.

freeflyneo 0 #8 November 13, 2003 go to the friflaj boogie instead...better partys, instead of flat flying stuck ups Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schwede 0 #9 November 14, 2003 GOT - Gothenburg airport is the nearest one, only 120 km from Lidköping-Hovby. SAS from London to GOT (Gothenburg) costs approx 250 USD on mrjet.com But I think thats a good tip - fly via London or Denmark (CPH) to Gothenburg for the cheapest fares.. Get your butt over here and experience the best skydives yet in your life...the Parties!!! Well, you'll discover that for yourself - nobody has complained yet about them....Schwede "Das Leben ist schön, nicht immer aber immer öfter" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pikkumari 0 #10 November 16, 2003 I would think that from London it's cheapest to fly with ryanair -check out www.ryanair.com Fly free PikkuMari Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schwede 0 #11 November 17, 2003 Thats a good option... Ryan fly from Stansted (London) to Gothenburg City airport (our home DZ) as well from Frankfurt-Hahn (Germany) to fairly cheap prices. If many uses this airport and tell us in advance, we will look in to arranging a cheap group transfer to Lidköping (approx 130 km away from Gothenburg).Schwede "Das Leben ist schön, nicht immer aber immer öfter" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Caroline and I have just booked flights with Ryanair for £31 including taxes! We arrive in the morning of the first saturday and leave on the afternoon of the second. We might be hiring a car, but we could also be interested in group transferSkydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimgriffin 0 #13 November 19, 2003 Hej Schwede! Sweden to Orlando is always cheaper because Orlando is the #1 travel destination in the US (Disney, Universal, ect). Usually, my svensk friends pay around $400-500 to come here - I have paid as low as $800 but as high as $1000 in recent years to go there (sweden). And many Europeans wonder why Americans don't travel outside the country too often. (That and 2 weeks vacation per year is standard - ugh!) Hey... but, I HIGHLY recommend this boogie to people from all over the world!!! I had a blast last year - the Herc is sucha cool plane. Do you know they charge something like $60-70 to jump a Herc here in the US (at special boogies)? ~Kim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
