FRIAT 2024

[Gary]

The renewal process is starting, for anyone wanting to join FRIAT for 2024. Here’s the schedule when you can expect tickets to go on sale

I am delighted you joined us at this year’s Royal International Air Tattoo and thoroughly impressed by your resilience despite the conditions over the show weekend!

After some development, I can now confirm the renewal process for next year’s event is ready to go, and I can’t wait to see you again!

Below is the new 2024 FRIAT pricing. Please note, this is before any of your loyalty discounts have been applied:

Standard seat - Adult £315.00 / child £157.50
Standard Plus seat – Adult £340.00 / child £170
Premium seat - Adult £365.00 / child £182.50
Premium Plus seat – Adult £390.00 / child £195

** All children aged 5 - 17yrs will need a FRIAT pass to enter the enclosure.
** Children under 5yrs are not permitted in the FRIAT enclosure.

This email marks the start of your journey to RIAT24, where I hope you will join me in celebrating the F16’s 50th anniversary.

For reference your seat number(s) at this year’s show was ***. So, what happens next you ask?

Firstly, if you intend on joining us again next year, please reply to this email to register your interest in doing so. Once you have done this, we will start the following process:

- On receipt of confirmation, we will issue a reservation form for you to complete for you and/or your party. The form must be completed and returned before the end of Saturday 30th September.

- As the forms are returned, those wanting to rebook will receive an email to confirm the seats have been reserved for you.

- After that, I will distribute a link to the live grandstand on the members area, here you will be able to see which seats are available.

- Once the grandstand has been shared you will have until Monday 16th October to add new people or swap your seats without incurring the £25 admin fee.
- On Tuesday 17th October any seats that have not been booked by returning members will be released for general sale via our website.

- Unfortunately, we were unable to provide a payment plan. However, we were able to extend the time your basket will hold your tickets, renewing members booking before the end of September will have until Thursday 30th November to complete payment.

- On Friday 1st December any unpaid baskets will be emptied, and the seats automatically released for general sale on the website.

Please note, amendments to orders made after Monday 16th October will incur the standard admin fee charge of £25.00.

All FRIAT bookings are subject to our ticket T&Cs and are sold as non-refundable.

I have only sent this email to 2023 lead bookers, if you booked more than one ticket, please share this email with the other people in your party.

Got mine too - here's to 2024.

Has anyone received payment details yet? I had the email late September extending the deadline but nothing since.

[thevulcan]

No not yet Gary was about to ask myself.

[iainpeden]

I haven’t received the final seat choice/payment link yet but I believe it’s expected this month (October).

I’ll rephrase that - the seat choice/payment link is expected to arrive this month with final payment date in January.

Hi all, I too had not received any follow up contact since confirming my seat renewal. So I just gave them a call, they are behind with the whole process so hopefully the next stage will be in the next few weeks. Do not panic !

Getting closer to being able to pay

Dear FRIAT Member,

Thank you for renewing your FRIAT booking for 2024. It’s taken a little longer than I had planned but I am really pleased to say that your FRIAT booking is now set up for next year’s show.

Over the next couple of days I will be emailing out to you details of your booking along with a payment link. This link will be active until the end of February for you to make your payment.

Once all of the payment links have been issued I will be able to share with you the live FRIAT grandstand. If you would like to change or add people to your booking you will be able to see which seats are available and contact me with the changes you would like to be made.

I look forward to seeing you all again next year.

Regards



Wendy Toms

A week on since last email, anyone been sent the payment details yet

[nitro999]

Yes, my email arrived today with the details / link to pay online

[iainpeden]

My payment details have just arrived. Seat H78 on gold discount is £285 payable by 29th February - just got to wait for the next instalment of my recently acquired OAP to drop into the account!

[Gary]

Thanks, hopefully get a email over the next couple of days

[iainpeden]

Email today saying everybody who has reserved a seat at FRIAT should have received confirmation/payment details. If you want to change seats or add people to your order you need to email or call - you can't do it directly to the seat plan.

Good evening, does anybody have any idea or thoughts about if or when FRIAT tickets will go on general sale? I cannot believe park and view has gone, last year that was absolutely fabulous on the Monday

Regards

The email from Wendy doesn’t mention a date for general sale. Some won’t go on sale until February. When the renewals expire

I am pleased to confirm the renewal process is now complete and you should have all received your payment links for the seats that are being held for you. As stated in the payment link, you have until the end of February 2024 to make your payment. If you are waiting until the new year to make your payment please be sure to set yourself a reminder before the end of February. The new process will automatically release any seats that have not been paid for by the deadline. If you haven’t received the link please let me know.[

As previously promised, here is the link to the live FRIAT grandstand for those of you wishing to add new people to your booking or simply change the seat held for you:

To make any changes please contact me on

Please note that this is a live grandstand link and it will constantly be changing as I amend orders, so please try to have the link open when contacting me so that we can ensure the seats you want are still available./quote]

I would call or email expressing your interest; as the stand was not full last show and some people will have declined renewal they may sell some of the currently available seats. (Just guessing) FRIAT membership will get you into park and ride.

I've called them since October and everytime I get a different answer as to when the rest of the seats are on going to be on sale, 1st it was end of October, Then the end of November and when I called end of November they said to me middle of December.

To be honest it's all a complete muddle at the moment, I also don't think it's fair that people who were there last year and are renewing for this year can add new people to their booking for this year.

Just in case anyone's not seen it, FRIAT tickets are now on sale to the general public >>> https://www.airtattoo.com/tickets-hospi ... iat-friat/
