“Air Festival organisers – Congratulations…here’s to 2010!”

“Congratulations on a rip roaring, barn storming, crowd pleasing, fantastic Air show. A magnificent weekend event for the town and its people – we had a fantastic day in the VIP Marquee, nice food, good service and lots of lovely wine plus fantastic weather – what a day! Well done …can I book a table of 8/10 for next year please!”

“Congratulations for yet another successful Air Festival 09, the event seemed to run seamlessly and from our perspective was very organized. Needless to say my hotels broke all records for both revenue and meals served, all were full weeks in advance …thanks to More Bus and all the sponsors, I believe a win win for everybody. The only ones complaining are our feet!!!!!”

“The event was absolutely fantastic! Really well organised, a brilliant atmosphere and the displays were amazing!  Well done guys, more of the same next year please & thank you!”

“What a fantastic few days! Bournemouth was without doubt the best event that I have been involved with this year. Great job by all involved.”

“I just wanted to write to congratulate the Tourist Management Board and the Bournemouth Borough Council on your most lovely town and an amazing Air Festival. FANTASTIC is the simple descriptor - the atmosphere, the layout, the day show and the evening events in the beautiful gardens made for a brilliant event. Bournemouth has certainly landed on the map of top air shows to complement a first class holiday resort.”

“I would just like to thank all those involved in this year’s air festival.  The whole event was first class and better than air shows you pay for. I’m sure next year’s show will be of the same standard, on a personal note more noisy jets please! Once again a big thank you well done!”

“Congratulations on the Festival, what a fantastic achievement. The whole event was so professional and well organised, testimony to the months of planning and hard work by everyone involved. You should all be very proud of this achievement. The Vulcan was something extra special this year. There was a fantastic spirit and electric atmosphere on the seafront. We experienced record trade at the restaurants since opening. The Bournemouth Air Festival is truly a world class event after only two years and I look forward to being involved and supporting it for years to come.”
