Now; Details of the Queen’s Jubilee Royal Flypast on Tuesday 5th June 2012

The Queens flypast will occur over Buckingham Palace at 3.30 pm (1530 hrs).
The formation will include Battle of Britain Spitfires, Lancaster and Hurricane aircraft.

The aircraft usually fly from East to West over Hackney to line up with the Mall
If you’re in central London, you’ll hear before you see!
The drone of the approach is fantastic so I hope you enjoy as much as I will.

RAF Royal Flypast Queens Jubilee 5 June 2012

It’s proving difficult to find out the precise details of the 2012 flypast.

All we know to date is that on Tuesday 5th June 2012 the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh will have lunch at Westminster Hall with a guest list of some 700 people, after which they will travel by carriage along a processional route to Buckingham Palace.

There will then be a Balcony appearance and the RAF flypast.
We don’t know the exact time or composition of the flypast but we estimate that it will be around 3pm or 4pm

May I recommend that if you ever need to book hotels online, we have thoroughly researched all the major websites and we feature the best on our Hotel Search page, above.

Indeed, Ryanair has just launched a site using the same search engine Michael O’leary said that the search engine “searches more hotel prices than any other comparison site”

To date, my clients have saved an average of 30% and they have found space when hotel-direct sites appear to be fully booked.

See for yourself here, or click on the Hotel Search heading, above.

Please bookmark our site – we also feature the UK’s best airline Flight Search tool and we’re here to help you whether on business or holiday.

Enjoy the Jubilee Weekend and the flypast!
