For the ballot, if you enter four people at once will LFC automatically assume that you want seats sat together only?  :o dumb question

Ok so spoken to my mate about the Private jet -

He can get a chartered flight for £635 return per person, providing we can guarantee 98 people on it.
It works out at something like £62k so the issue is guaranteeing the numbers. As good an idea as it is I think it is going to be too short notice and too tricky for us to do it.

This is well worth knowing for future games, and I know that we can easily sell 100 seats at that price, but we don't have enough cash between us to pay the £62k upfront and then there is no guarantee that we will get the money back.

No - Not all four of you might get a ticket through the ballot. Also you still have to go online and pick your seat in the sale if you qualify.

If it's anything you can my best mate and I in ! only 95 names to go including you  ;D

I work for a global airline and we are getting calls from agents to charter some of our aircrafts! I have been quoted 1000 pounds return by an agent I have a very good relationship with... Utter madness...
;D  Mate of mine and me are the same, everyone swears we are brothers when we're out. He calls me slaphead, I call him slaphead, so when I see him I go "slap" and he replies "slap. People be looking and thinking what the f**k are these 2 on  ;D
but he's a blue nose, so he's a c*nt
 
as per "Slaphead" on the 10th May 2018

Its not illegal but theyre still weirdos paying huge amounts to soak up a uefa manufactured atmosphere. Each to their own though, id rather watch it in town and be there for the home coming, after missing it last time.

How about someone who does all always but not homes.  Been to 5 this year so not even in ballot.  I will be in Kiev though.  Sorry to annoy you.

All ballot entries are going in as singles. Anywhere between 0 -4 of you could get sorted.

More to the point, I wonder if the club will shed any light on ballot chances.

Silly question, of course they won’t. Fair play to them though for getting ticket info out last night.

Seems to be a lot of people who have booked as far as Warsaw and need a way to and from Kiev. I wonder would we be able to organise a bus ourselves between the two? Happy to look into it if there is interest?

If I enter the ballot, and I'm successful but the ticket is the 400 quid ones available, can I just not buy one and someone else on the waiting list have it. In other words is it binding that I buy the ticket if I am successful? Thanks

They normally do afterwards - seem to remember league cup few years ago something like 98.7% successful

Seems loads doesn’t it

What’s the plan then??? Think the driving option has scuppered a few with Kiev being outside EU

Private vehicles are ok but check your insurance- you’ll likely have to buy a separate policy for the few days

There's loads of buses a day to Kiev from Warsaw. Every one will be full of reds. Their only around 20 Euro each Way

We had that problem, booked a Warsaw flight and were going to hire car to Kiev but they said we would be liable for the whole value of the vehicle if we drove it in to the Ukraine. Reckon they'll be loads stuck on what to do from Warsaw and back.

Thought i had got lucky when i picked up a bed in a dorm in the following hostel 10 minute walk from the stadium - £40 for 2 nights!!

Hostel Olimpiyskiy   - Velyka Vasylkivska Street 71/6, Kiev, 03150

Got an email from the hostel via booking.com immediately after booking saying i needed to transfer $50 via western union to guarantee the booking. Sounds like a scam to me.

Based on the qualifying numbers I'd agree.  On this occasion with the costs of flights and tickets, there could be higher chances

Manc to Brussels Charleroi,then to Warsaw Modlin is still reasonably priced on Ryanair depending how many days you have. I just checked 24-29 May and it’s around 150 pounds all flights total. A bit of hanging around in airports and not sure how you get from Warsaw to Kiev besides the bus. Hope this helps lads.

Ok so spoken to my mate about the Private jet -

He can get a chartered flight for £635 return per person, providing we can guarantee 98 people on it.
It works out at something like £62k so the issue is guaranteeing the numbers. As good an idea as it is I think it is going to be too short notice and too tricky for us to do it.

This is well worth knowing for future games, and I know that we can easily sell 100 seats at that price, but we don't have enough cash between us to pay the £62k upfront and then there is no guarantee that we will get the money back.f

Probably get 6-8 in our group on this possibly

Tickets will have the name of the person who originally bought it.  On the basis that they check ID on entry, it would be along way to go and very expensive to get turned away at the ground.

I booked the 5times flight last night thinking that the other day trip flights would be around the same price. The Thomas Cook price has surprised me a little but if I'm successful in the ballot and we win I'm not sure I'm going to care!

Booked a flight there, but no return sorted yet. Will have to see. A day after the match will be chaos in airport innit. Just looked as well and bearly anything left out from Kiev in sunday.

Who cares, at least a flight to Kiev is sorted.

On Thomas Cook, in the unlikely chance we get even one ticket we're wondering if we can 'draw straws' to decide who gets to go? Or just the person with the card can take the flight?
