There was a time in the not so distant past (You can ask Murph, he is old and can remember), that travelling aboard planes to get to places was not common. So when the chance came for some to get swept up in a Great Adventure, you can be sure they made it a very important time indeed.
Out came the Sunday's best. Suits and Dresses, Hats and Heels. Pearls and Cufflinks. All the finery to step aboard the amazing futuristic machine that would someday make crossing an Ocean as easy as riding a Bus. But with more opulence.
The Shannon Aviation Museum has put together a wonderful bunch of our old vintage favourites to fly a Vacation route. And the Public is invited to purchase tickets to fly back in Style.
So book your flight now, break out your best outfits, glam up in Vintage style and step aboard one of the many vintage planes that the Museum has managed to secure from Private and Public hands, and step back into the Glamourous days of Flight.
Remember, this is old school. There is no Wi-Fi, there is no Entertainment System. So bring your paper, your books, and your smiles, as our pilots whisk you to your destination in style. Of course there will be Tea, Coffee, and. of course hand made sandwiches. served by dedicated staff in Vintage outfits.
Book your seats soon. This is a once in a History trip that you will be able to talk about with your family for years to come.
