Unbelievable mate. Was it still purchased in your name or you got a random membership there as well?

How is this even possible... fucks sake, haha...
Random membership number. Only the name of the person attending and address is correct.

Haha, same here. I've got purchased under Berik-something. Not the same seats, or block, but right name on the collection form. I guess it's best to call them tomorrow. It's always something, isn't it? ...

With this ticket office yes! Not really encouraging for my first proper Euro away trip outside the finals!

Sounds like they’ve done a mail merge email and got the data scrambled

Still trying to find out if anyone can vouch for Football Travel limited for their day trip. (Twitter @travel_limited). Thanks.

Did this day trip get cancelled?

For info, Turkey is not covered on most roaming plans for UK phones. 

Some option on SIMS and portable hotspots at the new IST airport in below link.

Same here. All sorted now.

What's up with the e-mail if someone else is going on your card? My mate isn't going so another mate of ours will go on his card, but neither have recieved the latest e-mail. All details are right for the lad who's attending etc. Should e-mail come to the leading booker or the one who's attending? I know some people have had problems with this before. However, he did recieve the ''mistake'' e-mail from the Club the other night. Guess it's best to call them.

Few questions and advice needed:
Advice needed regarding my flights booked via Kiwi (have spoken to them, but it's like speaking to a brick wall)
My return flight has a stopover in Frankfurt and I have 1 hour 5 minutes to catch my connecting flight, according to Kiwi I will be able to make my connecting flight. My problem is my connecting flight is with Lufthansa who are not allowing online check in with Kiwi. I am therefore guessing their check in desk will be closed at this point therefore me missing my connecting flight. I have put this point to Kiwi however they are adament I will be able to check in and make my flight?

Also, long shot but is anyone travelling to Manchester Airport early hours from Liverpool Monday Morning? Car is currently getting fixed so that is that one out of the equation. There is a train that gets me in to Manchester Airport train station 1 hour before my flight? Is that leaving it too late (I can check in online), so it would be a case of running to security flying through then running to board my flight but is it doable? As travelling solo the companies I have enquired to price up my journey is a bit pricey for 1 person.

Only one point I’d say about that is that one hour to get from the train through security in the height of the summer hols will be really really pushing it . The station can be a real distance depending what terminal your flying out from

I believe Kiwi send your boarding passes to you, that’s what they seem to suggest in emails. I’ve never booked with them before so I’m not really sure but I could check in on the Pegasus app for my kiwi booked flight

I got to Manc Airport direct on my way to Madrid by the choo choo.

Edit .

Just re read . Get the train before then if you think its gonna be tight. Iam sure National Express goes direct too.

Don't know anything about Kiwi but if it's a proper connecting flight by the same carrier then they only make available connections that work. (And if it does not work, they are responsible for putting you on the next one).

The best thing I do is to look at the code of the first flight and look what terminal it gets in at. Then look at your connecting one for the departing terminal. If they are the same then you arrive in the place you're flying from and it's easy. If it's different terminals then just google how long it takes to get between. Quite often it's the same terminal.

I've got a connecting flight on the way back via Berlin I think (but separate tickets and only 1 hour) - I looked at past history this week and the first flight has been late by an hour most days - wish me luck!

Looks like free transport on the day.


Public Buses
On match day only, Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality arranged free dedicated transportation buses from both Istanbul Airport and Sabiha Gokcen Airport to fan meeting points. The buses will depart from Istanbul Airport every 30 min from 09:00 to 21:00 and from Sabiha Gokcen Airport every 60 min from 09:00 to 21:00.
Please follow the “Public Transportation” signs to reach those buses. After the match, free transportation buses will be available from fan meeting points back to both airports from 00:30 to 03:30.

Your flight back isn’t the 10.40am Thursday morning, arrive in Berlin at 12.30pm and then onto a Ryanair an hour later at 13.35pm is it?? Cos I’m on that!

Ha no mine is in the early evening. Just checked FlightRadar again for mine and it's not been too bad last few days - fairly on time apart from one day was 30mins late arriving - worst last week.

Yours looks like this:
https://www.flightradar24.com/data/flights/pc979
Fairly on time, apart from one day!


Both IST and SAW airports are miles away from the city - going to take at least 1 hour to Taksim or 1 hour 30 from airport to hotel and vice versa.

For anyone on that late Pegasus flight on the Wednesday you might consider heading straight to the bag drop rather than hotel if pushed for time.

I'm looking forward to this one now, but turned into a massive expensive ballache. 4 hour flight out, giving no actual time in the city, then through half of Europe on the return with a risky connection - at least I'll see a bit of the city on the Thursday.

Another example for those that go on about collections - sometimes it just isn't realistic.

Edit: Oh, and it looks to be another hot one - 30degrees!

Thanks for this mate I was looking how to get back to Sultanhamet after the game and all transport seemed to stop after 12 - was thinking I'd be walking for 75 minutes or getting ripped off with a taxi but that's made it much easier.

Anyone else travelling on their own? My first Euro trip outside the last two finals but had my sister with me on those, I just had to go though don’t get any other chance. Only for the day, arrive early Weds morning, hotel booked right next to that Galata Tower and near the Bosporus bridge so I can at least get some sightseeing pics this time. Booked onto that boat trip but in two minds whether to bother with it or not, Webster just seems be turning up to the event the night before so doesn’t sound like he’ll be on that long, prob only a couple of songs and I’d imagine the same on the boat trip, so may end up on there with just a few hundred for 4 hours and it be a bit boring? Thinking best just go to the square?

Yea I imagine so, undecided yet will probably depend on what time I get there really and if I can have a hour or two wander round before it.
