Problem is your easily looking at £1k and a few days off sorting out the visa and time over there. Is it worth unless your then going to go to every euro away?

Quick search on skyscanner, can fly from London to Moscow with Airbaltic via Riga both ways under 6h travel for £115. That's traveling 2-3 of October.

Looking for advice for what I can imagine will be a mad rush tonight booking flights. Is there a list of the regular company's you all use ?   I'm guessing flights will be booked before getting tickets ?   Easy enough to sell/transfer if you don't get tickets ?

Good luck with that, once the draw is made,  yes you can get cheep flights accommodation, but you have to be quick. So as I say good luck.

Not on the away ladder, but would love to do a European away this season.  Do a lot of reds travel without tickets and just go for the drink/atmosphere and hope that they can pick up a ticket in the home or away end once they're there?

Just use skyscanner for flights, they'll have all the companies on there, as for tickets you'll have a rough estimate of how many the club will receive by the capacity, then you'll know if you qualify or not,

If flights are expensive always decent to use a website like rome2rio to plan alternative routes

Thanks for the info mate.  No aways on  card so tickets will be difficult but I've promised my 15 year old son we will try to do one away.

Yeah of cause the prices are going up as people are booking... but if you book asap you can get a decent price.

Don't fly direct to where the game is - accept you might have to get two flights or a flight then a train or coach or a boat.
Don't come back the way you came.

to be honest mate, most won't put anything up until they have booked themselves. I've been doing this for many years, at least now with the web (yes I am getting old!) and so many devices (mobile phones and tablets) it makes it easier to access flights and accommodation quickly, where ever you are, no matter what time of day it is or even where you are in the world....

If you don't manage to get sorted as quick as you want to, don't panic as once things calm down and the mad rush is over (sometimes you will see flights/accommodation come down again) not always, but there are a lot of people that look at the flights etc and don't book up and this causes the agents to put fares up due to the demand ( I believe that's how it works?).

Just remember your budget and if you see something that falls into it, book it rather than wondering if you can get it cheaper else where?

Haha remember ringing round fucking travel agents trying to get a flight. I don;t even know how we co-ordinated with our group before we had a Whatsapp group.

What he said. You will also know the 3 destinations when they come out of the pot, and you can decide a budget for each and research some example prices/routes. Whatever price you find, budget at least 20-25% more than that price. Even more if it ends up being some event day they have over there ( Porto last year was valentines and Rome was their may day holiday).

You will probably have at least an hour from the draw, before the actual match days are published.

So is the allocation 5% for Euro Aways?

psg    47929      2396
napoli    60240    3012
red star    55538     2776

So decent allocation for all

Napoli we would sell 3k and only have about 1000 in our end I bet. The credit hunters need to fuck off.

Quick ones get something decent.
Panic ones get a bit more expensive.
Those that leave it even later get something settled and more what they actually want.

The games are months away. Lots of routes. No real panic.

They won their appeal and it's suspended for two years.

Really that low allocation?

I've got 5 from 6 last season and 3 from 7 before. I'm hoping these 3 group games I'll be guaranteed but was imaging 2k+.

Where's that from mate? Chelsea only got 1400 last time because of the racism and trouble the time before. They had 2200 the year before

City initially got 1400 a couple of years ago, complained, then got 2200.

£70+ looks right though. Robbers.

If we get Red Star away first they play Partizan a few days later if anyone fancies a little extended trip. Gonna do that if we get lucky with the scheduling.
