Bit concerning these tweets about fans being robbed at knifepoint during the night. I'll be on my own after the match going back

plenty in the same boat lad, is your accommodation near metro/train station? If not think about Uber from a station if you're concerned

[Vladi Legend]

Just been to the stadium. Bear in mind the station on line D is in Zone 2 and the fare is therefore €2.80. If you were thinking of getting a Paris Visite Card (€12 for 1 day, €19.50 for 2) then factor that is as the stadium would be included.

I've just bought the Carnet. Ten Metro journeys, including connections, for €16.90.  Can be used on any day.

They literally give you ten single tickets so you can share them with a mate.

[Dagro]

What about buses to Orly?? Do you know??

I am going back to Orly and was going to use the n131 bus from Gare De Lyon. Takes about 30 minutes. Only issue is getting to Gare De Lyon, I was going to go from Stade De France station and use RER D as that calls at Gare De Lyon. From La Plaine it doesn't, so would need to change at Gare Du Nord and then get to Gare De Lyon

Need to head straight back to Orly. Was planning on using the metro and then the night bus from Gare De Lyon

[Dagro]

That powerbank notice from the police is shite, got all my boarding passes on my phone, going to need to be really careful with the battery

you'll be sound then, plenty of reds in similar bus I'd imagine, just keep smart head on

[TeddyTime33]

Reversal on the power bank decision, should be sound now, common sense prevails

Please double check but I think you'll find they are zone 1 tickets only and won't get you to St Denis...

[mc_red22]

Does anybody know what taxi prices are like in Paris? Thinking of maybe getting one to my hotel, it's a 25 minute drive

[banksybanks]

Newhaven simple enough for the Dieppe ferry, if anyone's getting it. Bit of traffic, but only a slight hold up. They are checking everyone's covid status at the check-in

[Dagro]

Yeah thats what i am thinking. I am travelling in to 1 station, and departing from the other, so my plan is to just follow some Reds!

You can change RER B to RER A at Chatelet les halles. Last RER A to Gare the Lyon is at 1AM tho.

Says 'mobile phone chargers' not permitted, assume as well as power banks it also means plug/charger cable too  ridiculous!

Paris is like any big city mate. Just keep on main streets and keep your wits about you.

[Dagro]

Yeah thats what I found when looking

[redmen27]

What’s the story from LFC regarding the electronic ticket ??
Can you not just use the paper ticket ??
Safe travels

[Vladi Legend]

Apparently they cover zones 1-2. I'm staying in Aubervilliers which is in zone 2 and I'm here until Tuesday but I didn't realise when booking it that the local Metro, line 7, is off between Thursday and Sunday. Got the rail replacement bus today and yesterday. I've seen some people swiping when they get on it but I asked about how do I pay yesterday and the driver just seemed to tell me to get on, so I did. The bus takes me to Stalingrad, which is in zone 1 and where I bought the tickets.

[ooter1]

wasn't asked for covid test leaving Dublin or on arrival in Paris, waste of €29.

[UntouchableLuis]

Anyone know anything about Coach Innovations? Hour late so far haven't turned up at The Rocket...

[red_Mark1980]

Ridiculous.

As some one here. Its painfully not true

[Alf]

Lads just messaged me who are going from Dover to Calais to say they've been delayed by an hour. Roads are carnage although check in wasn't too bad.

Read on Twitter one coach innovations coach has turned up while the rest are delayed on the M62.

[cookie78]

Easyjet flights being cancelled I see.  Do the club do reprints for anyone unable to make it and the ticket is stuck in the UK also?  Not me but a general enquiry just if they facilitate this and how is it arranged for someone else to go or is the seat left empty

ticket says no reprints so not sure

[Dagro]

Is it just Easyjet that are cancelling flights?

[d_sig8489]

Power banks allowed again! Common sense prevails! https://twitter.com/MerPolLFC/status/1530205065537114112?t=ZWQpPcnk8Ips-ANB8EKDig&s=19

[kopitenkw]

Apparently one of the Coach Innovations coaches that was due to pick up from Maidstone services at 11.20pm is now not arriving until 3.45am. I’m pleased I changed my plans and cancelled my seat on that trip.

[dmsouthy]

Anyone advise on security queue times in Manchester today? 2/3 days ago it was pandemonium, has it got better? Worth getting there 3 hours before flight?

[UntouchableLuis]

It's been nothing short of a disaster on Coach Innovations. We eere bloody lucky as our coach arrived at the Rocket at 7:20ish but no others did and it sounds like loads won't get a coach at all now. There's been huge fuck ups by the sounds of it. We're just part Birmingham now.

I had a flight with Jet2 at 6:15 this morning. It took 25 minutes from the moment I entered the terminal to the moment I got through security. I had carry on luggage.

Terminal 1 took 40 mins from scan boarding pass to duty free. Bars v busy

[Barneylfc∗]

Seems like shit loads have been fucked over by coach innovations 

[RandalstownRed]

Have world choice sports also cancelled the 4am?

Yep I’ve heard this too from someone who lives in Paris. However I think shuttle bus is still on.

Mine was 90 minutes late. Still an hour from Dover

[jonnypb]

Just seen that BVTours (Dominic Lipscombe) have cancelled their flight in the morning, something to do with not being ATOL protected  Hope people can get sorted with something else.

Now stationary 5 miles from Dover. Not moved in 20 minutes and counting
