All teams and supporters will be accommodated in the 2*/3* hotels in the town centre. The cost is confirmed at £370 per person based on 2 persons sharing a room. A limited number of single rooms are available at a cost of £446. These prices include ALL meals, transport from Clermont Ferrand airport to hotel, transport to sporting venues and the social programme. Transport from Lyon Airport to Vichy will be available, if requested at a cost of 25 Euros (return) per person. One additional night, before and/or after the designated Games dates may be booked using the enclosed form.

Any further extra nights must be booked by you direct through the Vichy Tourist Board Office. These extra nights may not be in the designated team hotel. It may therefore be necessary to move hotels. The cost of extra nights will be £36 p.p.p.n in double room and £60 p.p.p.n in a single room on a B & B basis. A number of optional tours have been arranged. Details of these including the cost are enclosed in the pack. The cost of any additional nights booked on the enclosed form and optional tours should also be paid in two parts. That is 50% when the initial accommodation deposit is due i.e. by 1st March and the balance by 15th April.

The first payment of £185 per person (double room) or £223 per person (single room) is due by 1st March 2008. The balance is due by 15th April 2008. When returning your completed forms, please send two cheques. The second cheque should be dated 15/04/08 and will not be banked until after that date. Cheques, in pounds Sterling, should be made payable to B.H.L.T.A. and sent to me at the above address. The reason for this method of payment is that we have to pay the organisers a 50% deposit by 15th March and the balance by 30th April. These payments have to be made in Euros and time is needed to ensure that the currency transaction is completed on time.

Please book your travel individually. There are three options open to you. Train, Car or Plane. It would appear that from my first enquiries those of you travelling from the Midlands may find that flying is the best option as a number of budget airlines offer a service to both Clermont Ferrand and Lyon. However, for those living in the London and South East Area is not so good. Easyjet do not fly to Clermont Ferrand but they do fly to Lyon and this may be your best option. I think the train is going to prove too expensive and a long journey with changes. If anyone does find a cheap and acceptable route by plane or train please let me know as soon as possible and I will circulate the information to the rest of the team. Remember that with budget airlines the later you leave it the more expensive the fare, so if you are coming - book now. I need to know your travel arrangements please.
