My name is Luisa from Malaga, Spain. Ever since I watched Titanic, I have always been invested with the true history of the unfortunate vessel.

When I had enough money, I booked a ticket to Southampton via Flybe. They staff in the plane were very accommodating, I felt like I was a queen for a moment. When I reached Southampton, I went and bought an admission ticket to SeaCity Museum. I was amazed by the beauty of the exhibits dedicated to Titanic. It was thought-provoking and well displayed.

Flying to Solent Sky

My name is Levi from Amsterdam. I always loved the concept of aviation. I dreamt of being a pilot one day. So when I learned about an aviation museum in Southampton, I already wanted to go there. With a ticket at hand, I flew to Southampton via KLM. Their service was superb, I thank the kind staff for being on call. When I have arrived at Southampton, I went and bought an admission ticket to be able to enter their aviation museum named Solent Sky. Based on information I gained from the tour, the museum depicts the story of RJ Mitchell. There were lots of old airplanes stationed in the museum. The staff knew a lot about the air crafts in the museum. Furthermore, there was a space suit and cock pit simulator which was a fascinating experience for me. I never wanted to leave the place but I need to. Surely, I will book a ticket back. I love the place.
