The Dream

After two or three fabulous days of preparing with your crew – you're suited up and you're raring to go. The climb to 50,000 feet is marked with quiet contemplation but there's an air of confidence and eager anticipation.

Then the countdown to release, a brief moment of quiet before a wave of unimaginable but controlled power surges through the craft. You are instantly pinned back into your seat, overwhelmed but enthralled by the howl of the rocket motor and the eye- watering acceleration which, as you watch the read-out, has you traveling in a matter of seconds, at almost 2500mph, over 3 times the speed of sound.
As you hurtle through the edges of the atmosphere, the large windows show the cobalt blue sky turning to mauve and indigo and finally to black. You're on a high; this is really happening, you're loving it and you're coping well. You start to relax; but in an instant your senses are back on full alert, the world contained in your spaceship has completely transformed.


The rocket motor has been switched off and it is quiet. But it's not just quiet, it's QUIET. The silence of space is as awe inspiring as was the noise of the rocket just moments earlier. What's really getting your senses screaming now though, is that the gravity which has dominated every movement you've made since the day you were born is not there any more. There is no up and no down and you're out of your seat experiencing the freedom that even your dreams underestimated. After a graceful mid-space summersault you find yourself at a large window and what you see is a view that you've seen in countless images but the reality is so much more beautiful and provokes emotions that are strong but hard to define.
The blue map, curving into the black distance is familiar but has none of the usual marked boundaries. The incredibly narrow ribbon of atmosphere looks worryingly fragile. What you are looking at is the source of everything it means to be human, and it is home
Then you're back to your reclined seat and gravity is starting to return. The deceleration produces strong g forces, but you're lying down easing the intensity. You feel the feathered wings of the spacecraft producing a powerful drag as the thickness of the atmosphere increases, although out of the windows it still looks like space. The g forces quickly ease off and you hear the pilot announce the start of the glide home.

You can also pay with bitcoin

Heard it's going to be €11 a day for car parking there, they may forget it so.

Thanks OP, just bought 10.

Must be a pricing error, hope they honour it.

Jet Black

How much for one way?

karlyk1

Betcha the greedy staff snaffle a load up for themselves.... just like Tesco.

peejay1986

Parcel Motel?

erkifino

Return flights? Chancers, considering you don't get off at any stage, your destination is the same as your point of origin. Not for me.

jockeyboard

Has anyone a discount code?

There is a company looking for people to go one way to Mars if that's any good to ya, at least one other Irish person applied to go,so there might be a bit of craic......and best of all its free!!

If only it had free WiFi then this would have been bargain alert of the year.

Rhys Essien

£149,000 you say.

I'll just wait 20 years when its down to €1000.

Banjo String

Meh. Space wouldn't be my first destination of choice if I'm honest especially not for that money.

No atmosphere.

It's buy one get one free

MRTULES

Don't deliver tickets to Ireland.
Probably be alright with parcel motel though.

Celly Smunt

Virgin being the ryanair of space trave means It probably leaves you somewhere near space

soundsham

Perhaps a Fat cheese referral code of
"Blast Off 10" for 10% off might help you make the decision

hfallada

Is baggage included in that price or is it extra?

Virgin Galactic will have hourly flights to the Andromeda galaxy well before you see any cashback from fatcheese.

IrishStuff09

What's customs like up there? Have a few ideas for our fellow Martians..

2% cashback from Quidco if you sign up for their premium membership.

I'd never fly with an airline that didn't go all the way.

Capt'n Midnight

'tis a shame the Mig-25 with the passenger seat up front was retired

Anything to avoid flying with O'Leary again.

ecomac

Does anybody know how much they charge for priority boarding?

AlanS181824

Finally something to spend that spare £150k I had lying around...

jescart

I'd feel a bit cheated tbh 50000 feet, it's not really "space" so to speak. Most international flights go to 35000 feet and ya can usually see feck all but clouds. £150k for an extra 15000 feet is a total ripoff.

You obviously didnt read the OP fully.Its the first stage that takes you to 50,000 feet.Then you are blasted up at 2,500mph into space.

jmorrisey

I suppose any trip that gives you the chance to get the duty free cigs and booze in is worth it

'RETURN FLIGHTS TO SPACE'

?

Does this mean this offer is only for those who have flown to Earth from Space in the past?

No good for the majority of us so

nah, at 50,000 ft you are released from the mother ship. Mach 4 all the way to 361,000 ft

banchang

I get Lounge Access beforehand, right ?

dilallio

Just bought one for the OH - she'll be over the moon.

Idbatterim
