TRAVEL
to Trittenheim is either by our Suggested Route or members may make other
arrangements. To keep costs to a
minimum, we recommend the Suggested Route, which is via air from London (Stansted)
to Frankfurt (Hahn) and onward group transfer by coach/minibus to Trittenheim.
Details of the suggested
flight for self-booking will be confirmed on receipt of the signed booking form
and payment. Members
having to book an alternative flight may still join the group transfer, provided
they meet at the designated time.
[The following were the arrangements for some previous Weekends, to indicate the likely arrangements for the 2009 Weekends, details of which will be available nearer the time. The coach/minibus met the following flights [all times stated are local]:
London (Stansted) depart Friday, at 10:55 on flight FR 756, arriving at Frankfurt (Hahn) at 13:10.
Frankfurt (Hahn) depart Monday, at 18:25 on flight FR761, arriving at London (Stansted) at 18:40.
Please note that flight times and prices are subject to change, so please check latest info before booking. Prices have ranged in the past from about £50 to about £150, return]
Transfer to Trittenheim will take about 1¼ hours and will cost around €uro30 return (payable in cash on arrival in Trittenheim), depending upon numbers requiring this service.
CASH
PAYMENTS: Please note that ADDITIONAL CHARGES, such as for coach transfer (see TRAVEL, above) will
be invoiced separately. Please note that any
Euro (€) payments due must be paid
on arrival in Trittenheim. In
view of the low course charges, it is not possible to make any other
arrangements regarding payment. All
bank or other transfer or conversion charges must be born by the course member;
all figures quoted are nett.
There are two automatic cash machines in the village of Trittenheim for withdrawing €uro cash for making payments.
PASSPORT & INSURANCE: It is the sole responsibility of each course member to ensure that they are in possession of a valid passport and any visa(s) required. Please make certain you have full holiday insurance cover – this is now a specific requirement. U.K. residents should also carry a current European Medical Insurance Card (replaces the old E111), available via the Post Office.
