And the Opening and Closing ceremonies prices start in the hundreds and the seats near the front cost ...wait for it £2,012,00 ;D ;D 4 of them please ;D ;D
-
I've said from the start, its a total rip off. :y
Have you seen the Hotel prices ....over doubled in price at the minimum.
Its going to cost us dearly in the end....just to allow the ego's of a few like 'Lord' Coe to be fulfilled >:(
Recession.....what recession!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
while the olympics is on we have some friends from america coming to stay so i thought i would take them for the day so 4 adults and 4 kids will cost me approx £1000 what a absolute disgrace
-
I feel for you mate.....its gonna be hell in London and surrounding areas for travelling during that time :(
My caravan is near Weymouth, and I am gonna make sure that we have had our hols and are back home before the Olympics start....watch all the prices rise from an Ice cream to car hire >:(
-
yes will be madness in london luckily its only a couple of miles from me im hiring a minibus for the day and will be parking it at a friends who is only a 15 minute walk from the stadium
-
To be honest.....as we have two spare rooms, I did hint to the wife about renting them out for the two weeks, after I heard the rental prices that were being charged. We are only 50 mins from London, so would probably get takers. :y
Just gonna word the ad now....Female only, must be under 30...lol lol lol ;D ;D ;D

There'll be plenty of aviation related businesses going under, I suspect, thanks to the utterly draconian airspace restrictions being put in place for this pointless event.
Still, it'll save me spending too much money on gliding.
I will be finding somewhere to hide for the duration. Nothing could possibly interest me less. >:(

What restrictions are expected, Kevin

http://olympics.airspacesafety.com/
http://www.nats.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/London2012OlympicsCASTConsultation.pdf
Basically a restricted zone from Reading in the West to Clacton in the East, North as far as Bassingbourne and South as far as Burgess hill from mid July to mid September. Access to the zone includes hurdles which makes their use by a lot of gliders, microlights and light aircraft impossible. Filing of flight plans in advance and following them, for example. Impossible for a glider dependant on the weather or a light aircraft at a flight school where movements are not known that far in advance.
Then a load of airspace around Southampton and Farnborough to cope with expected increases in traffic which will be a complete PITA.
All during the busiest couple of months in the year for small aviation businesses - i.e. the months that make their books balance.
Let the big boys rake in their profits from the olympics while the little guy suffers, as usual. >:(

Smack on , Kevin :y

£20's OK but some prices are taking the piss - £95 for a session of beach volleyball? imagine paying that and it was the mens event that day ;D

Agreed.
Nothing could possibly interest me less
Nor me. :y

One of the very few 'advantages' of being stuck in the shithole where I am at the moment. ;D ;D :y

I for one would have loved to have gone to watch several of the events, but the prices are crazy, who can afford a day out like that I ask you?
:(

totally agree dlk how do you think i feel ive got to buy 8 tickets :'( :'(

Not sure mate being honest, but I would have a word with my friend if it were me explaining the stupid amount of money the tickets are. If anything like a friend they would offer to pay half. .
Just an idea.
You perhaps would be better buying a big screen, get loads of beer and watch it all at home for less :(
-
.I live in East London and Cycle past the site every day on my way to work.
I had fond intentions of taking the kids to see stuff.
The ticket booking leaflet is here next to me and I just look and think - the Olympics aren't interested in local people coming at all.
I do think that the area is going to be a complete nightmare as there is only 1 DLR station (Pudding Mill Lane) that makes easy access. And they dropped an enormous clanger by building Stratford International station and then deciding that the Eurostar isn't going to stop there.
Once everything's done and dusted next Autumn, three of London's poorest Boroughs will be left with the maintenance of this enormous site. Will they be getting any extra to keep it maintained before it's sold for £1.50 and becomes another Dome? I don't think so.
I wouldn't be surprised, despite the many proclamations at present if it becomes another Athens ghost town.
Hmmmmmmmmm..........................

did that last year i arranged a tour of the den and they met all the players and watched the match from the exec area funnily enough they loved it
-
Do you think the tickets might come down nearer the time in order to fill the stadium(s)?
The current prices may just be to cash in on folk(mostly from abroad)
