The Plan:

12.30 “Train not plane” party board the big red (open top double decker) ‘bus-for-the-future’ which takes the message through the streets of London to Euston station.

1.40 pm "Train-not-plane" brigade boards the Manchester train at Euston.

Evening - Party, party, party for aviation activists in Manchester

Join us on the special "train-not plane" carriage on the 13.40 train ! Cost is £ 11.50
Make it a full fun day of aviation activism! (return from Manchester Saturday night or party in Manchester and return Sunday morning ) Book a ticket at  enddomesticflights@campaigncc.org Cost is £11.50 for a seat on the carriage, first come first served for available seats. (Manchester Piccadilly to Manchester airport is £ 3.20 Return by train is £11.50 if booked well enough in advance, or £ 5.50 on megabus )

Put this date in your diary now! This will be the time to take the agenda forward on aviation, and insist that at this time of climate emergency we cannot afford to be using high-emission forms of transport where viable alternatives exist. And that aviation will need to bear the burden of emissions reductions along with other sectors
