A Historical Perspective
The Farnborough Airshow has a rich history dating back to 1948.

The airshow is now a key event for aerospace manufacturers, defense contractors, and airline executives to unveil new products, forge business deals, and discuss the future of aviation. One of the main attractions of the Farnborough Airshow is the unveiling of cutting-edge technology and innovations in the aerospace sector. From advanced military aircraft to the latest in commercial airliners, the airshow offers a glimpse into the future of aviation.
How it impacts funerals in the Farnborough area?
Our team of funeral directors have to consider the impact of road traffic in the lead up to any funeral we have arranged in the Farnborough area. This means checking for road closures and discussing the impact of busier routes that may lead to delays. Before every funeral we plan the route the funeral cortege will take through and around Farnborough to the crematorium or cemetery and speak to the family to advise on the most suitable way top go and often allow for more time. When travelling in the hearse we can often hear the planes above us displaying their great technological skill!
Funerals for a pilot
We have experience arranging funerals for pilots and people who have an aeronautical connection to the Farnborough Airshow. Our funeral directors and arrangers will always find ways to personalise a funeral to reflect the person whop has died. For Pilots we have personalised funerals by selecting poems, choosing a plane themed coffin or floral tribute, and travelling in the hearse around the Farnborough Airport.
Holmes & Family Farnborough has experience arranging all types of cremations and burials. Please call us on 01252 370551 for more advice.
