THE
Tour Operator for THE Aviation Enthusiast …. Ian Allan Aviation
Tours in association with the new and exciting Aircraft
magazine the UK's best selling monthly aviation magazine for classic aviation
enthusiasts - organises aviation tours led by aircraft enthusiasts for
aircraft enthusiasts: from long weekend tours in Europe to 10-21 day tours
to countries around the world. Please refer to the contact details below
if you would like a copy of our latest brochure.
Our annual tour programme comprising of approximately 25-35 tours per
year are researched and organized by a team led by Graham Dinsdale, a
professional aviation tour organiser with nearly 40 years experience.
All tours are escorted either by Graham or one of our experienced Tour
Managers who are themselves aviation enthusiasts.
Aircraft
magazine comes in 13 exciting issues a year and is the work of the best
writers and photographers in the business. Aircraft
is the magazine for the true aviation aficionado, and continues the rich
history of Aircraft Illustrated established over 40 years ago. The magazine
offers a contemporary take on the greatest years of aviation, the glory
days of charismatic aircraft: from the most famous historic airlines to
the most exciting military jets of all time – coverage is second
to none!
Our programme of Aviation Tours throughout the year will include all the
different areas of aviation: civil, military, classic and antiques, warbirds,
preservation and restoration, museums and air shows – and more.
Whenever possible, pleasure flights will be offered, as an option, on
some of the most famous and classical aeroplanes flying today: civil and
warbirds!
All visits to military bases, and the taking of photographs, are to be
confirmed - unless stated otherwise in the tour itinerary.
Visits to civil airports and airfields will include ramp tours wherever
possible, and at museums we ask to look around their workshops and restoration
facilities.
At some of the famous cities and places we visit, the itinerary may well
include a sightseeing tour and/or free time to enjoy the local attractions,
go spotting, shopping or relaxing. All long-haul tours depart by air from
the UK on the scheduled services of the world's major airlines. In-country
we travel by deluxe coach and stay in superior 2-star (minimum) hotels
or motels. There is no overnight coach travel. Some of our shorter European
Tours are by deluxe coach, Eurotunnel rail services or on overnight Ferry
Crossings (we offer single and twin berth cabins).
Overseas enthusiasts are particularly welcome to join us, either in the
UK or directly in the Country being visited. Please ask for our special
"Land Only" prices.
In planning our tours we refer to "Aviation Museums and Collections
of the World", a series of excellent books by Bob Ogden containing
comprehensive details of aviation museums.
Meals are not included in the tour price unless they are part of the room
rate.
