Hi! Both options work, just have to find a place to sleep. You can fly to Heathrow or Bristol, or even Gatwick or Stansted, hire a car and drive to Fairford. Otherwise take the car, Ferry to dover and drive to Fairford. Just be sure to avoid the M25 during rush hours!

The bus companies are full booked. Airshowtrips and spottertrips.
