Planning for London?

Recommended Posts

If you're trying to get to London for Oct 13th, and thinking airfare would be crazy - here's a "deal" announced today.

=-=-=-

Norwegian Air to Gatwick with prices starting at $120 one way. Purchase tickets by May 5. Blackout dates apply.

Sample one-way fares to LGW:
$120 Boston
$135 New York-JFK
$140 San Francisco
$155 Chicago, Tampa, Miami or Los Angeles
$175 Denver or Seattle

Return flight may be pricier. You may find another airline has a cheaper return flight from another London airport, or from another departure country.

These are the "LowFare" rates, with absolutely no add-ons. Snacks and sodas will cost you, and a meal is $45. There is free WiFi to stay in touch with the Huddle.

Definitely no free WiFi on Norwegian. No entertainment at all. Took the one from NY back in October. It was terrible. It’s BYOW (water). They make you check any bag bigger than a purse - I had to check my backpack and it was $100 each way. It was terrible.

i just bought one of our guys a direct out of BOS for $680 on American. There are good flights out of NYC too. If you’re trying to go as inexpensively as possible there are options. I wouldn’t make Norwegian one of them.

Just my friendly advice

British airways started flying from Charleston SC this year also, into Gatwick I think. 

Heathrow , but they only do a couple of direct flights each way per week.  You can fly direct on Thursday night from Charleston.  Round trip right now is around 750

If this is a thing you're interested in:  October tickets for the London production of Hamilton go on sale tomorrow at 12 noon GMT.  If you're going to be in London for the game anyway and have a free few hours, it could be a cheaper way to see a permanent production of the show vs NY (or the soon-to-close Chicago version, which some say is better than NY).

British airways is under $600 if you stay a week and fly on Friday. $1500 for business class,... oh yea(don’t expect that to stay for long)

they are the only airline that still treats everyone with class,..lots of coffee, tea, hot towels, and seats that are more like economy plus on other airlines,... no other way I’m crossing the Atlantic.

    • I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.
    • there is a 100 mile long list of NFL players and coaches going to bat and defending horrible play from teammates.   
    • In 6 games, we've only had 6 hurries??? ... that can't be accurate
