]]> Comment on How much would it cost to travel from the US to the summer olympics in London in 2012? by Quizzard http://www.olympicvacations.com/olympicsaccommodations/how-much-would-it-cost-to-travel-from-the-us-to-the-summer-olympics-in-london-in-2012/comment-page-1#comment-353 Quizzard Mon, 03 May 2010 05:18:37 +0000 http://www.olympicvacations.com/olympicsaccommodations/how-much-would-it-cost-to-travel-from-the-us-to-the-summer-olympics-in-london-in-2012#comment-353 Airfare will run you $1000 or so if you're careful. Accomodations will be VERY expensive. Hostels and the like will not have space, so you'll be looking at hotel rooms, which will probably run you $200 per night for an Olympic period. You'd have to book soon. Tickets to events don't go on sale until later this year/early 2011. Expect to pay hundreds for most events, including preliminary rounds. Medal events will be several hundred apiece, up to several thousand for prime seats for prime events. Airfare will run you $1000 or so if you’re careful. Accomodations will be VERY expensive.

]]> Comment on accommodation near london.? by Carrie S http://www.olympicvacations.com/olympicsaccommodations/accommodation-near-london/comment-page-1#comment-352 Carrie S Tue, 27 Apr 2010 22:57:46 +0000 http://www.olympicvacations.com/olympicsaccommodations/accommodation-near-london#comment-352 Greater London is 609 square miles big. You say you are going to the Olympics - are you a competitor? If so, you will probably be in the village. Tickets do not go on sale until 2011. http://www.london2012.com/visiting/tickets/index.php There is no way of knowing at this present time what the state of the railway / tube network will be by 2012 as there is currently a new East London rail service being built. Improvements are also underway on most tube lines which means our tube network is disrupted almost every weekend. It can take a while to travel across London and during the olympics, the main rail stations will be very busy indeed. London does, however have links to every area and so it would be up to you where you stay. If you want peace and quiet, you're going to have to go quite far. I recommend Kent. Somewhere like Edenbridge. If you take the train you can get the train from Edenbridge to Redhill, change for train to Clapham Junction and from there get to a main station such as Victoria or Waterloo then on to tube / DLR out to East London where the Olympics will be held. As you can see it will not be easy so I highly recommend finding a place in London you like. Greater London is 609 square miles big. You say you are going to the Olympics - are you a competitor?
