Is anyone in desperation willing to combine a holiday in Majorca with the game?
Ive got flights for 3 people to Majorca from Newcastle then internal flights to Madrid and a return to Majorca on the Sunday for return home.
Dates are Newcastle to Majorca 22/5
Majorca to Madrid 30/5
Madrid to Majorca 2/5
Majorca to Newcastle 2/5 (about 4 hours between flights)
3 seats probably looking at around £350 each including the name changes but i can give a firm price if anyone is genuinely interested)
AI Hotel for 3 people for the Majorca 8 days from 400 or S/C from £202...hotels obvs not booked but readilly available...prices are for 3 people not per person.
Inbox me if your interested,genuine offer not a scam!

I don’t know whether to go for the adult/junior combination, or just go for the adult one tomorrow. If I’m unsuccessful with the adult/junior combo, then is that me out of the adult only one? If I’ve more probability of a chance of 2 adult tickets, than adult/junior then I’ll do that. With only 100 junior tickets the probability doesn’t sound good if being successful in the ballot.

With the location of the seats, it looks like all the cheap seats will be grabbed in the first sale of people with guaranteed tickets. Ballot people will probably mainly have the expensive ones left.

In same boat, registered me and my lad for adult/child combo as believe if these tickets are sold out your in the main adult ballot anyway but tickets will be more expensive thats all, well thats what im hoping anyway. Last year entered us both as separately and didnt get in so trying it this way this time

There is a good Madrid Metro app in English on android and apple people may find useful.

That's our applications in for the ballot. Fingers crossed. Ballot results for us last few years has been:

Basel: 0/3
Kyiv: 2/3
Madrid: ??

Based purely on the odds, we're probably due another zilch this time around, but you never know, eh!

The information from the club said no email confirmation but to check your purchase history to confirm. You've got until Monday to register so dont worry and check later.

I reckon that's just something they forget to remove from the page.

It's processed like a ticket on the site. I've just registered and had no email.

Check when the sites quiet and it should appear in your purchase history

Just keep going and eventually you'll get there. That site seems to be incredibly tricky. A couple days ago I had to try numerous times before it took payment as it kept failing to match billing address, and I seem to remember the same issue last year as well plus the site kept crashing as well. The good news is that after you've paid etc. they do a good job.

Just the small matter of waiting till the ballot on Thursday

Flying to Bordeaux and getting the coach overnight.

Read a report last night that they’re planning to have multiple fan parks and screens around the city. The ‘CL festival’ they’re calling it. I suppose it would make much more sense for them to try and organise something than let 100k Brits roam the city ad hoc.

I just nabbed one of those rooms and will be cancelling an 2 bed apartment that says it takes 6 (but was booked for 2) that was £209 for 2 nights 31st - 2nd. I have one or two concerns that it might end up in a Kiev situation but if anyone needs it DM me and I'll provide details and see if I can transfer.

Hi, is this still available?

I get the email to reset the password, click reset password, go in the queue, get to the ticketing homepage and then nothing. No option to reset, no email containing a new password. Nothing.

I'm going with coach innovations again. Went with them to Basel and Kiev and it went as well as you could expect for a long coach journey. Started at £199, got mine for £209 now on for £249. Leave Liverpool Thursday lunch, arrive in Vitoria-Gastiez in N Spain at 3pm Friday - sort your own hotel (nice and cheap there) then leave sat @ 6am for a 5hr coach into Madrid.
After the game 2.30am coach back to Liverpool by Monday lunch.

If you can handle the coach journey its a good option and a good laugh although a bit smelly!!
