Glasgow - London

London - Porto

Both returns are £164 all in if that suits you mate, Wed-Fri gets into London at 22:10 though

I cant fly until the thursday due to work commitments and sadly I would miss any connecting flight that would get me there in time for a 20.00 kick off. :sad:

Was unreal how quick it went up. I know it normally does but flights were sitting at £56 for Faro-Edinburgh. Immediately after the draw I went to book & by the time I got through and put details in they wanted £256

So we’re now..

Weds Glasgow - Belfast - Faro

Fri Faro - Stansted - Edinburgh

£312 all in for the two of us.

That was all sounding good mate, until the last sentence. Hope you get them. :thumbup:

Been on Skyscanner all day and scunnered trying to find a decent route at a reasonable price.

**Davy Vandenbroucke** · February 25

Flying Glasgow-Gatwick-Lisbon on the Wednesday then returning the same way on Friday.

I’m arriving back from a two week holiday in Antigua via Gatwick the day before so that’ll be some laugh :lol:

If that's the 6.55pm flight from Gatwick I looked at that but couldn't make it work as I'm in Chancery Lane until 5.30pm. There's a flight the next morning out of Heathrow but need to try and see if I can switch my return London leg till after the game so I don't have to fork out for another flight home

Could you not stay in London overnight rather than go home to Glasgow?

Nah it’s the 16:30 one - I arrive into Gatwick at 8am so I’ve booked a lounge and will just work remotely there.

Got it for £300 in total which seems to be a good deal all things considered - the price went up by nearly £100 while I was booking it as well, cheeky bastards.

Heathrow flight is TAP I’m assuming? I also looked at them but it was just easier booking everything at once through the same carrier (easyJet/Dohop) rather than fiddling about on my phone like a maniac trying to get one booked after the other :lol:

I thought of it, but I’ve not got enough leave so I need to go back and get my work laptop so I can work remotely in Gatwick.

Fair

The prices spiked but they seem to have dropped a little again and settled around the £200-250 mark with TAP

BA has a perfect flight leaving Heathrow in the evening but it's £600 :lol:

**MisterC** · February 26

I see there's no official club flight to Lisbon. Lack of available aircraft is the excuse which seems unlikely at this time of year where its still the winter timetable

Well this has gone tits up 😂

just found out my mate hasn’t booked it cos he had a hospital appointment today with the news determining if he was going next week or not… and it wasn’t good news

Iv got other people I know to meet up with over there and will put me up for the night in Lisbon so that’s fine

just getting there is the ball ache now.. have the Thursday Friday off work, too late to book the Wednesday.

looking at flying to Barcelona Wednesday evening, staying in a hostel near the airport.. fly to Lisbon Thursday morning. Then Friday looking like a train to Faro to fly back to Luton 😴

thanks for reading my sob story x
