You can charter a plane from Shoreham to Le Havre through a company called Executive Flights. It's not that cheap, and you only fly in a 6-seater. I think it's about £150 return per person. However, if more people wanted to do that, then it can only be good for Shoreham Airport, and would give better prospects for its much-needed future expansion.

Air France does not want to fly to Gatwick (or Shoreham on the expensive 50 seater turbo-props).

Air France DOES fly into Gatwick from Nantes plus one other place which escapes me using Embraer regional jets.

I do not hate Europeans. ]

Thank you.
I am English which means I am European.
Sadly UKIP believe that England is somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic.
There are white cliffs near Le Havre just like Sussex.

Right... back to the original point of this thread... it would be great if we could put in place a link with LH...

The cider is good in Le Havre.

But Nantes is nowhere near Le Havre.

Rouen is quite near though and I think there are flights from Gatwick to Rouen.

Could go on a private yacht or fishing boat, I suppose.

nantes a good three or four drive to le havre, i went there last weekend to see the outlaws. quickest way by far (as a seasoned traveller to le havre) is newhaven-dieppe ferry plus a one hour drive....

Useful reply this.

Otherwise, I would have thought of a trip to Portsmouth at this end, and this would make the journey nearly two hours longer.

think they are cancelling the portsmouth-le havre service anyway....and it takes i think 6-8 hours from portsmouth...

newhaven-dieppe even on the slow service is 4 hours, the drive from dieppe is a little over one hour

I do not believe I am a racist, or a prejudiced bigot I know a Aussie who was my English teacher that lives over here, that has been to France and is Pro-EU, and does not like the French and said similar comments to what I said. I can't believe all the racist branding I get, its alright for a left winger Europe Lover to say as much oh I hate arragant Yanks as possible, yet its a sin on this board if Strike posts I do not like the French. Who is the racist out of those two. I do not go calling nations stupid racist names or use the word hate or swear words. LOL



Anyway two things I like about the French, their crossants and wine. But for most other things I am not that keen on most things French.

strike, the more you get sucked into the right wing smoke screen making machine the dafter you sound.

Answer questions put to you, don't come out with all the usual bollocks.

Look up the words 'dislike' and 'most' and then consider you have no experience of this place you talk about. Then go 'doh', then start acting like a normal human being. And go and get me a galaxy bar while your at it

We all have our prejudices. The tabloids Sun/Mail etc have built up anti-French and German feelings as part of their agenda. There is also an anti-American slant at work elsewhere.

As an old git I find it very depressing that people born after c1970 are so keen to refer to WW2.

What this thread should be about is the Albion taking advantage of Brighton's close proximity to France.

 

[Strike]

Yeah despite what I have said, I think a link up with a mainland European club like Le Havre will do us good and offer us a good preseason friendly.

Lets take this arguement to another thread.

 

[perseus]

Who thought up this idea?

It seems like the only good idea that anybody has thought up for heck up for hell of a long time!

 

[The Large One]

Rouen is quite near though and I think there are flights from Gatwick to Rouen.

You can also fly from Shoreham to Rouen. But, as I said, you can also fly from Shoreham to Le Havre as well.

Why 1970?
I was born 1970.Can i comment on the French nation's inexplicable yellow-bellied frostiness towards us?


As for Brighton,has there been any official mention anywhere?
