As we expect to have quite a few people coming in to the UK via airports I thought it would help somewhat to collate a list of who is arriving when and where so that people can volunteer to help out other dMw members with the transportation requirements.

Please post here is you need help with transport from an airport to the LAN (or back again).  When transport has been offered by another LAN/Meet attendee we'll add the details here so that we can see who has transport and who still needs to be helped out.

If you are coming to the LAN or the Meet and passing within an hour of these airports, please consider helping out a fellow dMw member and posting here to offer them a lift!
In the mean time I am looking into another option which might help the STN group.  No promises, but we'll see what we can do.
Note: Other people known to be flying in but no details yet available:

Looking at prices and flights it seems that Gatwick is the fastest and cheapest for me to fly to. Would these arrival/departure times be horrible to make?
Arrival Thursday - LGW 10:15
Departure Sunday - LGW 10:50

The Sunday one could be quite a pain to make I assume, but the next flight is at 20:00 something.

The Sunday would be a pain in the ass mate probably have to leave at least by 9am if you would be walking straight on to the planeif I am honest. Also look here and post it up here mate as there are others as well.

Posted in another thread already. I'm looking into getting a later departure time. I may have to switch to Heathrow for the departure then, and it will cost about twice as much :(

I can probably do the pick up early from Gatwick on Thursday morning if that helps? And can drop off back there but really not keen on the very early start that would be needed.

I also traveling up and back with one other and carrying some spare kit for DD so space might be limited (only drive a hatch back) but depending on things I can prob do a drop off to Stansted for 1 and at a push 2 people.

If it is Heathrow you can squeeze in with Spiritus/Kakehund & Faust again if it is a similar or later departure time?
