Good luck on the Murchy Ciaran. A mate of mine worked there for years and enjoyed his time there.

How about leaving your car at Petrofac's office? Or you might have an over night stay at a hotel for an early check-in. Some of the hotels let you leave your car for free.

[Carl Davey]

Aye, if you're staying at the Scooby Doo (Skean Dhu) the night before flying you can leave your car there. Probably the same with the Speedbird etc.

Guessing it's Broomfield house via Shetland for the Murchison?

[Guest]

yes via shetland carl. and am staying at the skean dhu the night before. how far is the hotel from the airport

[Carl Davey]

A stones throw......over the runway.

There's a bus that leaves regularly to cart folks round to Scotia/Bristows/Broomfield House, you won't be stuck. Just head out to reception around an hour before your check-in and jump on the one waiting there, ask the driver if you aren't sure. Bond is walking distance.

[Guest]

sound carl how much to leave ur car 4 a fortnite at the skee and dhu then?

[Carl Davey]

Free AFAIK.

[john_robertson]

Free if you are staying overnight.

[Guest]

if it's cheaper to pay to leave the car than to get the train or their or their abouts il take the pug!

[Guest]

well just recieved my first months wages and a phone call from petrofac fly at 6.15 2moro and thats all i know the told me absolutly nothing apart from that.

[johns]

Ciaran,

are you flying at 6:15 or checking in at 6:15 ? Generally check-in is 60 minutes before flying though it may be less for the fixed wing.

Broomfield House (for the fixed wing) is just before the main airport terminal building.

Don't forget your passport either, you'll need this for identification and in case your flight gets diverted to Norway if the weather is bad (very rare though)!
