Ayton Travel Plans

And just to cap off my day Airbus have closed the social club until further notice.

Yes, I too am in a agreement. For me, Ayton is only 50% about the game, the other 50% is the social interaction afterwards. I’d rather have a delayed Ayton than a much reduced Ayton.

Salute has been cancelled for this year

Looks like VB guessed right. Two weeks quarantine if you arrive in Aus or NZ is going to kill a lot of FIFO international work.

No surprise but I hope they have the financial hit covered. It costs a 5 figure sum to mount that show.

[goat major]

they've at the same time said that Salute 2021 is going ahead and that tickets will transfer to next year (so they actually say postponed rather than cancelled). Good on them - must have been very difficult to avoid going under for good

UKGE has been postponed till August. It does mean I can now attend assuming we are past the worst of this madness by then

Good to see a big show being optimistic. I wonder if it will indeed be OK by August.

Who knows EB...

Given Australia has 25 million people, 300k beds and a 10% hospitalisation rate is optimal, we ought to be well and truly past the peak in July. Of course, the unknowns there are enormous.
