New for 2011 – Perth Airport Meet and Transfer

Those of you living the high life can also benefit from a new meet and transfer service from Perth Airport. Visitors who travel by plane will be met off the runway by a Fair representative with a welcome pack, before being driven to the event, courtesy of Mitsubishi – one of the Fair’s principle sponsors.

Upon arrival, visitors will alight at the entry gate and be able to enjoy a refreshing glass of champagne (passengers only!) or soft beverage in our members’ enclosure. The package also includes an exciting ride on the Mitsubishi 4x4 off-road experience on the banks of the River Tay.

After embracing the convivial atmosphere, first class entertainment, excellent trade stands, fabulous food and trying their hand at the many activities on offer, guests will be transported back to the airport.

Anyone wishing to take advantage of this VIP package should apply to Corinna Gow (01738 554826) by Wednesday 29 June. A charge of £30 per person in addition to the ticket price will be levied for this exclusive offer. Pilots are asked to contact Perth Airport on 01738 551631 to make all the relevant arrangements prior to travel.

The Fair is our main educational event and any proceeds are ploughed back into our vital work.
