I dont know anybody, wont I be lonely?

No! The key element of Club is to unite enthusiasts. On a trip everyone knows why we are there so the ice is already broken. This means that the fun starts from the moment you arrive!

Can I gain discounted entry into parks?

Special offers vary throughout the year and full details are either sent to members or printed in the club magazine AIRtime.

What happens on a Club trip?

The itinerary varies according to the Trip. Most have an ERS on the main coaster. Some have luncheons or BBQ's. There are also themed events, the Coaster Crazy Gameshow and other member events.

What does ERS stand for?

Exclusive Ride Session (a private ride session i.e No members of the public). The Club generally has at least one ERS (normally lasting one hour) on every trip.

How can I help parks?

By completing the annual Club survey you will be directly helping the parks. By providing information we can help parks,informing them what rides and attractions are preferred and those disliked, etc. Andy Hine is often involved with new attractions at Parks and can use the survey results to help persuade Parks to get the right new attraction.

How do I know when to rejoin?

As your membership runs yearly you will be sent a renewal form with the yearbook in January.

What happens if I join mid-year?

You will be sent all back issues of AIRtime relating to that membership year. You will also receive all the invitations for the remaining Club trips.

I don't know where a Park is or where to stay.

With every trip itinerary you will receive a map or guide to locate the Park and usually a list of local Hotels and Guest houses. These are a guide only and are not endorsed by the Club.

What happens if I cancel on a club trip after paying my money?

No refunds can be made for non-attendance.
