TT 2019 booked

[chris4652009]

Just booked my crossing for next year. Quick and painless unlike previous years with systems crashing etc

Is it me or are they taking bookings earlier than usual this time? I’m sure they don’t usually put them up until practice week!?
Anyhow 5 days in the office then I’m off to tt2018 for the fortnight. Have a safe one you guys

Website was a nightmare for me, kept trying from 8:30 and finally got booked at half 1! Heading over on the 5th, first time on the bike as usually a foot passenger, praying for nice weather.

I was out last night with a group and we all booked online for race week

Same story for me. Couldn't join the phone queue unfortunately, so ended up getting less than perfect crossings

Normally they start taking bookings on the Monday of practice week IIRC, so yes, a little earlier than normal

'kin heck, I assumed it was mid practice week like normal and as I am there was going to go to the terminal and do it in person.
2018 trip was the most difficult I have ever had to book, hotel I stayed at last year was booked for back end of practice week and race week last August, the WHOLE hotel, by some Australian travel company for packages. Not a small hotel, one of the biggest in Douglas.
Lack of accommodation and then poor ferry options nearly made me not bother.
But I leave in 11 hours! Weather's turned nice for it, lol.
