Tickets - when will they arrive?

[Papa Lazarou]

Erm, as a newbie to this Le Mans lark, when can I realistically expect to see my tickets pop through the letterbox?  I ordered mine from Just Tickets and am beginning to get a bit paranoid with just over 2 months to go... 

Thanks,

Patrick.

You will get them from Just Tickets about a week or so before the event! I would call them if you are departing the saturday before to ensure they are dispatched in time.

Thanks Rick - being over here in Northern Ireland, I want to make sure that they get here in good time - the post can be less than reliable sometimes.

Got mine from JT end of april last year, you get for what you've paid for with them

I e-mailed them this morning to be sure everything was in order before booking the airline. Would have been a real bummer to drop all that cash on plane tickets only to get screwed on the camping pass. They responded quickly that all was set although they did not indicate when they would be shipped. I've been impressed thus far.

Beware the first letter of your surname, Hardpoint.
They tend to run down the alphabethical order as for posting tickets in France

I've not heard of tickets going missing in the Post.   They don't send them out untill quite close to the Race If you don't have them say a week before before you leave then call them.

I recieved a second e-mail today saying that they will be mailed two weeks before the race.

Uh oh.  Hardpoint's surname is Zwieback!   

That 2 week mailing window doesn't exactly fill me with confidence, but I suppose we have no choice.  His name is far closer to the beginning of the alphabet than mine, so I guess it's a good thing he ordered them instead of me if we're cutting it that close.

Hey, dont worry

I'm still waiting for my LM 24 hr BIKE tickets, and we leave in 17 days !!

that's pushing it a bit by the ACO if you live outside Europe

[Hardpoint]

To add to the anxiety, the tickets are being shipped to my sister in Scotland because of the outrageous fee that JT wanted to charge to ship them here. I  guess I'll have her overnight them to me once she gets them, thus eliminating ANY savings I would of had.

HP, when are you YFDS lads due to arrive in LM?

An alternative would be to have the tickets delivered to a UK LM person (such as me) and then pass them to you on arrival in Le Mans.

If you're in a campsite other than MB, you'll just need the camping passes initially.

[Hardpoint]

We'll be arriving at LM sometime on Thursday (as early as possible) and camping in Karting Nord.
