Arlington (WA) Information request

[CJ]

Helllo,

Fisrt, thanks to everyone who helped with my earlier "Seattle Advice"
thread. Our schedule dictates that Thursday, July 7th is our aviation day.
We plan to be in Arlington before 9:00 a.m., leave during the airshow
between 3:00 and 5:00, and fiinsh up our day at the Museum of Flight's free
evening (we figure we'll be near burnout so the MOF evening may be a
scouting trip) .

My question is aimed at the Arlington veterans. If I buy tickets in
advance, my $12 tickets cost $21 each with the service charges. And, rather
than being mailed to me, I have to pick them up at will call. So, I suspect
that before 10:00 a.m. on a Thursday, I should skip the "convenience" of
will call, and buy tickets on site.

Am I correct? $18 extra for the two of us for will call, or buy on the
spot?

Thanks in advance.

Buy your tickets on-site. I don't believe you'll see much of a line on Thursday
morning. Have your EAA card handy, as there's a discount.

Hi Curtis

Buy your tickets at the gate - with your EAA card,

Be aware that you can't depart during the airshow because the runway is
NOTAM'd closed.

Tony - who'll be in AD 11.

If you arrive early, there's absolutely NO reason to buy the
tickets in advance. 9:00 AM is plenty early and the line
shouldn't long at all.

You can leave anytime you want if you're driving... only
aircraft are prohibited from leaving via air during the
airshow.
