North Berwick Jambo Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Just found this.. *********************** Ryanair Pays Out after Jinxing Ryanair Horse 1M FREE SEATS EVEN THOUGH RYANAIR HORSE DIDNT WIN THE RYANAIR CHASE NO TAXES, NO CHARGES, ZIP, NADA Ryanair, Cheltenhams favourite airline today (13th March) announced that although the Ryanair horse, Mossbank didnt win the Ryanair chase, it will still give away 1 million free seats (no taxes, no charges) because we probably jinxed him. Speaking this afternoon, Ryanairs Head of Sales and Marketing, Sinead Finn said; Sadly the Ryanair horse didnt win the Ryanair chase. With 1 million free seats riding on Mossbank to win, he was jinxed from the outset, so well pay out regardless to thank all the passengers who have made Ryanair Cheltenhams favourite airline. The 1 million free seats for travel in April have been released on http://www.ryanair.com. We advise passengers to book immediately as these seats are FREE, no taxes and no charges and will be snapped up in record time. Editors Note: A nominal 1 p charge applies and will be reimbursed on request Travel Mon-Thur and Sat in April See Ryanair.com for details and routes ******************************************************** I checked it out & 4 adult return flights from Prestwick to Oslo on 4/4/08 is just 8p including all tax & baggage, there a loads more deals if you have a good look. I thought i would post it in the shed & not the members bit so more folk would see it! Cheers Crawf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavaarHearts Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 The airport is 2 hours on a bus and over 100miles from Olso mind you. Can you still get a cheap train to Prestwick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torp Airport Torp Airport is serviced by several Norwegian airlines as well as Ryanair. Torp Airport is located 84 km to the south of Oslo. There is a bus service between the airport and Oslo operated in correspondence with departures and arrivals of Ryanair flights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neobis Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Torp Express:goes from the airport to central Oslo bus station. The journey takes about 1 hr 50 mins. The return trip costs NOK 240 (cheaper than two one way tickets). The bus is timed to coincide with arrivals at and departures from the airport, and the times fit perfectly with Ryan Air flights from London Stansted.

Quite an expense getting a taxi for around about a 100km trip. http://www.theipcrg.org/oslo2006/travel/travel_info.php With the flights only costing 8p, I can splash out on the taxi - 500NOK is about ?40 ?
