JRFC Charter Festive Flight to the Emerald
Isle
Leinster 'A' v Jersey Sunday December 16th
After some delays caused by uncertainty over scheduling,
availability of craft, and other factors, we are pleased to
announce that our direct charter flight to Dublin is now
confirmed.
The Flybe flight will leave Jersey at 10.35am on Saturday
December 15th, arriving in Dublin at 12.30pm. We will return on
Monday 17th at 12.15pm, landing back on the Island at 1.40pm.
JRFC will be able to provide tickets (prices TBC) for the
Heineken Cup match between Leinster and ASM Clermont Auvergne at
the Aviva Stadium on Saturday afternoon (k-o 3.40pm) as well as for
the weekend's headline attraction, Leinster 'A' v Jersey in the
British & Irish Cup on Sunday at Donnybrook (k-o 2.30pm).
We have also arranged a special rate at the Burlington Hotel,
which is a luxury four-star establishment that is handy (around a
mile's walk) for both grounds, at 89 Euros for a twin/ double room
(a single supplement will apply).
Beyond the squad, club officials and a handful of sponsors,
approximately 30 seats on the 78-seater plane are available to
members. Return flights will cost £289 per person - this is
cost-price, and includes all taxes, as well as coach transfers in
Dublin to/ from the airport. Match tickets and accommodation are
not included.
If you wish to come on the flight, please advise Tom Innes by
email - tom_innes@hotmail.com -
providing the details listed below. If you have problems emailing,
please call Tom on 07829 959888. The deadline is Friday October
12th - it is not first-come-first-served, and if the trip is
over-subscribed a ballot will be held, with results announced the
following week.
The trip's open to members only, one flight per member. If you
wish to apply as a pair, with another member, then please advise at
the time of booking. Pairs will be given an equal chance to single
applicants in the event of a ballot.
The return flight is on a larger plane, with 88 seats (this is
due to varying/ limited availability of aircraft). We will offer
the extra 10 seats for the return leg to members at £120 per person
one-way - this will mean you have to make your own arrangements for
outward travel to Dublin.
Those who have already booked trips by land, sea or air will be
available to obtain match tickets through JRFC - details to
follow.
No money is required at this stage but, once places are
confirmed in mid-October, full payment will be required in order to
secure your seat(s).
We hope the above is self-explanatory. If you have any queries,
please take a second glance, or after that call Tom Innes 07829
959888. Please note Tom won't be available this weekend (Oct 5-7
inc) due to being on tour.
