Lodging

Enjoy on-field lodging at The Flying-W Motel 609-267-7673

The Hilton Garden Inn in Mount Holly has offered us a party rate of $109 per night. Phone 609-702-1600. Ask for the Flying-W or Aerobatic contest rate. If you have trouble getting the rate ask for Lori Oberg. The hotel is brand new and located near the other hotels in Mount Holly.

The following are recommended alternatives to the Flying-W and Hilton Garden Inn:

  • Best Western, Mt. Holly 609-261-3800
  • Hampton Inn, Mt. Holly 609-702-9888
  • Iris Inn (Bed and Breakfast), Medford 609-654-7528

The Flying-W will allow tents and campers by the T-hangars at the northeast corner of the airport. There are no facilities, no campfires.

Participants who do not have a Flying-W room key may pick-up a pool pass from the Flying-W Motel registration desk.

  • Take Exit 5 (Burlington/Mount Holly).
  • At the end of the exit ramp, turn right onto route 541.
  • Take the jughandle at the 3rd light onto the route 541 Mt. Holly Bypass.
  • At the 5th light, turn right toward Lumberton (route 541 turns right here as well). Beware the low speed limit in town (the police are well-equipped and enthusiastic about their jobs).
