Plus, there's much more a commercial risk to the Airshow - you could have a night like tonight where its all called off and presumably the A1 carried little, or it could chuck it down all weekend and you could carry nowt, but still have to run the miles, pay drivers etc. Whereas 55,000 One Direction fans are going to turn out come rail, hail or shine !Wouldn't that make a special event day or multi day ticket a good idea though? Then if the skies open on sat or sun, folk have already bought their tickets, so the service is receiving money it otherwise wouldn't have?
Bit like advance train fares for a day out. You're taking a risk trying to save money, but you've got it regardless of the weather.
