Anyone wanting to make a last minute decision on Toulouse can still pick up a flight into Carcassonne for less than £150 with Ryanair. Not bad to say we paid £80 for ours when they first came on sale. Normally low cost carriers crank up to silly money as the departure date gets nearer.

Talking to a few at the Shay on Sunday, it would appear that there are quite a few Fax fans on this flight and getting the train onto Toulouse. In the absence of a cup final this weekend I'm starting to get in the mood for this one now. Long term forecast looks good too.

ryanair go from liverpool too and theres a similar trip available to above for around £120 p/p but departs 6am saturday.were having babysitting issues at moment !

That's the flight I'm on. Anyone else?

We are on that flight. 8 of us!!

Me and three others on the friday morning flight from Manchester to Toulouse. Coming back on the sunday evening flight. 2 nights in Toulouse.
Seats still available on these flights. £149.53 return, including taxes.

I am really looking forward to it now. Had it booked since the day fixtures were released, almost cancelled due to work commitment but found out yesterday I am no longer required over those dates so its game on!!!

Ditto. 4 of us. Out Friday, back Wednesday.

We're on the EMA flight out but not coming back until Thursday.

We're making it part of our Summer hols and will be driving down. Can't wait.

24 hours & loads of tolls!

No, early start... setting off this Sunday (I'm reeeeeally bad at directions!) and stopping off along the way. No plans, nowt booked, just a map and a tent.

Je me suis perdu. I think we will be saying this a lot as it means I am lost.

It's an adventure.

We are on the Jet2 flight from Leeds on the Saturday Morning coming back on the Tuesday and the last time I knew they was still places left on this flight allthough I am not sure at what price.

9 of us flying out thursday from liverpool and coming back on tuesday. Staying in Carcassonne

Have you checked the train times for the return to Carcassonne , some of our fans almost didn't nmake it in time



Last train was something like 8 pm

Not a problem we've hired a motor cheers anyway

The perfect flight however they wanted a small fortune. I'm suprised there was no organised trip.

There was but it cost a fortune and was half as long as most people are going for.

The Club organised a trip to Toulouse and sold it out in December.

The trip cost £359 per person (mainly due to the fact we are flying just as the school holidays started). However the price includes coach travel to and from the Shay to Manchester airport, coach travel to and from Toulouse airport to the hotel, hotel and meals and match tickets and hospitality. We are also sending a tour guide so it is pretty much a hassle free everything included trip.

We fly out on the Friday morning and return on Sunday night. The trip we have sold is exactly the same trip that has been booked for the players so supporters will be on the same plane, in the same hotel, eating with the players etc etc. I am still not sure if that is a good thing though!

Bad news for those not going (including us

): it doesn't look like the game is covered on the french internet site which is unmentionable on here. The Toulouse v Widnes game the week after is being covered though.

Bugger! as would have loved to have gone but playing in an International next Saturday. Will have to ask TS or somebody to text me the result!
Toulouse is a great city and think people going will enjoy it. The airport is also the main Airport for Airbus but apart from that is quiet. Sadly the Toulouse Rugby Union have a shop in the airport but The League boys not. Would be good to see some Rugby League stuff to buy as well in the Airport.

Right then, I'm setting off in the morning. See you all down there.

Au revoir.

See you down there Jackie hun

Do I have your number?

I'd post the score during the match but I'll be too pished hopefully
