Welcome to the NASC Travel Page.
This page contains information for members wishing to book tickets and/or travel with NASC for the 2008/2009 season. If you are not a member of NASC please do not attempt to book with us (please join first).
Please be aware that we do not update this page on a match by match basis - the regular changes to fixtures makes this difficult. Therefore please always check fixture details at www.arsenal.com, and NASC travel details for individual matches with the travel organiser. Occasional notices will be displayed in the panel below.

BOOKING PROCEDURE 2008/2008 SEASON
Please follow these four simple procedures when applying for your ticket and travel:
1 Always use a club booking form to apply for tickets and travel. Booking forms are issued with the Newsletters or you can download a form from this page. Please post your form to The Travel Organiser at the address advertised in the Newsletters.
2 Send payment with your booking form, which should be one blank cheque made payable to 'NASC'. Do not post date the cheque. NASC will use your cheque to take the total cost of tickets, booking fees and travel for the fixture.
3 Enclose a stamped addressed envelope with the booking form so we can let you know if your application is successful and send you tickets. If you do not enclose an s.a.e. you will be charged £1 extra for postage.
4 Ensure your booking form, payment and SAE is sent to arrive at least one month prior to the fixture you wish to attend. Tickets are allocated one month before the fixture, so if you don't get the booking form to Dave on time you may well miss out on tickets.
BOOKING FORM
A new booking form is available for the 2008/2009 season. It has been redesigned to make it easier for you to complete, and you can download it here. It is in .pdf format, so you will need Acrobat Reader to open and print the file.

TICKETS 2008/2009 SEASON
HOME TICKETS
All tickets will be sold at standard Arsenal prices blus a NASC booking fee of £3.50 (£5 for non members). Details of Arsenal's ticket prices can be found at www.arsenal.com. Arsenal charge us an additional 30p per ticket to cover the issue of paper tickets. For the 2008/2009 season we do not intend to pass this fee on to members.
We usually obtain lower tier seats in the south end of the stadium which are priced at £33 (£47 for grade A fixtures) or upper tier seats in the south end of the stadium which are priced at £47 (£67 for grade A fixtures). Please indicate your preference on the booking form.
AWAY TICKETS
All tickets are sold at standard away venue prices (cost varies between clubs) plus a booking fee of £3.50 (£5 for non members). Details of away ticket prices can usually be found at www.arsenal.com.
TRAVEL 2008/2009 SEASON
HOME TRAVEL
We will usually supply return coach travel from Norwich to Arsenal for all first team fixtures. Very occasionally due to fixture changes or lack of demand we cannot offer coach travel.
The cost of travel will be subject to review for the coming season when we have heard from the coach company about their charges. Currently the cost for return travel is £14 (adult members), £10 (concession members - students, senior citizens and unemployed), £7 (junior members) and £16 (non members).
Pick up points are Norwich (John Lewis, Newmarket Road and Thickthorn Services), Wymondham, Attleborough and Thetford. Additional pick up points may be arranged on request in advance with the Travel Organiser.
To comply with Police requirements at the new stadium the following departure times will be in operation. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THESE TIMES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND YOU ARE ADVISED TO CHECK WITH THE TRAVEL ORGANIER FOR EACH FIXTURE.
Saturday fixtures, 3pm kick off. Coach departs Norwich at 9.30am.
Sunday fixtures, 4pm kick off. Coach departs Norwich at 10.30am.
Midweek fixtures, 7.45pm or later kick off. Coach departs Norwich at 4pm.
AWAY TRAVEL
Away travel is organised strictly subject to demand, and may be a minibus or car sharing. Please contact the Travel Organiser if you require travel to away fixtures.
TRAVEL ORGANISER
Our Travel Organiser for the 2008/2009 season is Dave Watson, and the Assistant Travel Organiser is Gary Shaw.
Dave can be contacted by email dave@norfolkarsenal.com, or on the NASC Travel number which is 07772 752974. Please restrict your calls to WEEKDAY EVENINGS between 6.30pm and 9pm only please.
NOTES
All ticket and travel bookings are accepted subject to availability. Where possible all tickets will be issued prior to match day.
Any tickets you order and then subsequently cancel will still have to be paid for by you unless they can be reasonably and easily disposed of elsewhere to bona fide NASC member or other approved supporters clubs.
All tickets are allocated in accordance with the club rules (copy available on request). Your application does not guarantee a ticket.
NASC will make every effort to provide transport to games (with the exception of European games), but if there are only a small number applying for travel NASC reserves the right not to offer travel for that particular game.
The Travel Organiser will not be going to every game, so he will nominate one person on each trip to oversee matters (e.g. making sure everyone is catered for).
Book early, and enjoy the season.
