    Solex was a great show for our company, however i have had quite poor feedback from customer which cannot drive to the exhibition centre in Telford. The Irish and Scottish customers in particular were very thin on the ground at the show. Can we like other exhibitions put on courtesy buses to and from Airports and major Train stations? In Paris at the Maison & Objet show a bus collected you from Charles de Gaull Airport and returned you in the evening, the exhibition centre was on a main rail line, so getting to and from was simple.
    How can Lofa - Solex help increase the number of visitors from over seas and far away?

    Hi Chris,
    You comments are well made and we will be addressing them for SOLEX 2009. We are already going to have a shuttle bus from Telford Station and better signage. The airport is more difficult but we think perhaps a bus to meet the early flights from Ireland and Scotland might be feasible ad similar a return bus in the evening. A shuttle bus to the airport ie every 20-30mins throughout the day is not possible.

    Hi Richard,
    Sounds like LOFA are addressing the Issue for distant travellers.
    First day of show, we should have a few buses to collect from airport, hopefully most visitor's will be staying over, also the last day we should have a few, as they will all be going home. The return Monday, all day Tuesday and the collection Wednesday maybe you only need one bus at one time.
    Must also be clear that LOFA is offering this service.
    Regards
    Chris
