Passport into England

If you are travelling internationally, a valid passport is normally required to enter the country. It may also be worth carrying additional photographic ID separate from your passport.

At the passport booth an immigration officer will ask to see your passport and any supporting documentation necessary for your visit.

Contact the proper agency within your country to secure a passport.  If you need any additional assistance from WABC (for example, a letter of invitation) please email us at Office@WABCswim.com 

Please act now since securing the proper passport and other travel papers can take months.

Air Fares

- Check air fares at this time using Gatwick airport.  You can also check other London area airports, though Gatwick travel and transfers would be easiest.

- The primary cost of any conference is the sum of travel as well as accommodation expense. Shop early for the best airfare.  Lodging choices for WABC 2009 are varied so you can match your budget and desires... and if you wish, make up some of the cost of your airfare.
