Spur of the moment visit, so didn’t book any of the tours, but my father and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Runway Visitor Park. We stayed for around 2 hours and the parking cost £5, which I think is reasonable considering there is no entry fee. We had a hotdog and fries which came to around £16.40 for both. The toilet was really clean. Staff in the cafe and the gift shop were really friendly. We will definitely be visiting again, but next time booking a tour. Would highly recommend visiting. You could even just take a picnic and sit on the seats or grass weather permitting. We got to see the A380 take off too, so that was a bonus.
This is such a brilliant day out! If you went for the full day it would cost £12 for a car. But for the amount of entertainment on offer it's actually quite good value. You could stay for a full day if the weather is good. You can bring a picnic and just watch the planes all day. There is also a climbing frame and lots of space for children so it's a fun day out for all the family. For transport buffs there is also the Concorde experience (yes 204 feet of engineering brilliance) so if you are in the area and the weather is good then get yourself down there!
I was here for an event, and we were based in the Concorde hanger. It's not often you exhibit under one of the most famous planes in the world and the most famous Concorde. The venue is amazing and the tour of the plane was the fastest 20 minutes ever. I could have spent hours listening to the guide talking about the plane, it's achievements and the records it broke and still holds. The plane itself is the one the Queen flew and the flagship of the British Airways fleet.
