Come fly with Me-tro

Story added: Thursday 22 July 2004

Extra Metro trains will flying up and down the tracks to Wearside this weekend as operator Nexus gears up to carry thousands of passengers to this year’s Sunderland International Airshow.

Metro passengers heading to the seafront show can board a train at any one of 57 stations on the system, jump off at Seaburn Metro station and find themselves just a ten minute walk away from the heart of the action on Seaburn sea front.

And with no parking hassles or charges to worry about, Metro makes more sense than taking the car to this year’s Airshow, which promises to be a fantastic event.

Sunderland International Airshow, now entering its 16th year, promises to provide yet another dramatic and fun filled weekend of activity.

The largest free Airshow in Europe will once again play host to the ever-popular Red Arrows - their spectacular aerobatics displays are sure to entertain and transfix, no matter what your age.

Take a trip back in time with the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight featuring their impressive Lancaster, Spitfire and Hurricane.

The Falcons Parachute Team will be back to fall from the skies, and make sure you don’t miss breathtaking performances from the Belgian and Royal Netherlands Air Force's F16’s.

Getting there couldn’t be easier - or better value. Airshow fans taking the Metro can purchase a Return from just £1 or a DaySaver ticket at only £3.20 for unlimited travel all day.
