Any mention of shuttle buses to the airport after the game? Like in Kiev

This would be the easiest why back, other wise its a train back into the centre of Madrid and back out again.

Only did this in Ukraine as there was no other option to get fans from the Airport to the stadium and back again.

I was under the impression that Sport Options will be putting coaches on for their flights IF UEFA don't put any on.

Sport options said they would

This is a flight only option. In recent finals local shuttle buses have been arranged to take fans Airport-Centre and Stadium-Airport. We expect the same to be arranged in Madrid. If this is not the case there is a Metro to take you from the airport to the centre and we will arrange buses for after the match.

Yeah, they said that on the booking details.

Vuelling have added additional return flights from Liverpool to Madrid going out Fri & Sat all around £500 so cheaper than the day returns

How many people do we reckon are going to just bang in their own details with the intention of selling the ticket on, accidentally select collect in Madrid, and then realise there's no way of them selling on the ticket?

Do we reckon the club would allow returns for such circumstances?

This is probably why the Ticket Office had collection in Madrid as default!

Wouldn't surprise me if the default being collection was intentional.

Hopefully genuine people can still collect. But I'd imagine a tout or two may have to find a route in now...

If anyone still needs reasonably priced accommodation we have a couple of bookings for apartments in the centre 31st-2 June that I'm going to cancel tonight as managed to get something better/cheaper (one 2 bed £210 total and one 3 bed £280). PM me and I'll provide details, and can try and co-ordinate the cancellation or transfer the booking.

If you need travel to Madrid - National Express are doing coaches,

Return fares from £349 from Liverpool

See the echo website,

I don’t know if this has been mentioned yet but according to this article Liverpool fans are given Felipe II square.
www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2019/05/13/champions-league-final-dressing-rooms-liverpool-lap-luxury-spurs/amp/

Oh, and our players will also have a nicer dressing room.

Hang on, has this been confirmed?

Felipe II Plaza does not look as good as Plaza Mayor. Was there in 2009 and was excellent!

LFC Fanzone is apparently Avenida de Felipe II - from someone that has messaged the Madrid tourist board. They are unsure whether they will do a screening there at this point. It looks pretty small so probably won't house many anyway.

Yeah, but it looks like there are bars/cafes about(if you go on Google street view)- whereas the Spuds have a bigger square but few or no bars/cafes......just surrounded by government buildings etc !

My mate tried but ticket office said they aren’t fulfilling the tickets so can’t change - I know a few people who did it as it looked like no other option hopefully they realise it might be a nightmare over there and offer to change it if they have a bit of pressure applied. I’ve just had a look and it looks easy to find but the default is collect in Madrid the option to change is above but not sure if they have changed that this morning

Thanks mate, will look into it, if not will pick up over there. Not that I’ll have a choice😂

The default is collect in Madrid. There’s a drop down box where you can click for UK post. Once you do that “update” details at the bottom of the page and it will change to UK post on your buyers details

They check they match before boarding. Depends if you check in online or at the airport. I think they have to match or you won't be on the travel log. That is in general; never been with TUI
