Not that long now, and after a change in work stuff I booked today!

No flights available for Perpignan so flying from Liverpool to Barcelona then got a hire car for the drive to France - apparently its 97 miles so shouldn't be a problem I hope?????

Good deal in all for me and dad I think, flight, hotel, airport parking and car for £164 each.

Have I got it all horribly wrong?

Who else is off and how?

Tigers for life!!! Not Just for Superleague!!!:38175.jpg



We fly to Lloret on the wednesday before, stop in Lloret and weve hired a car to drive up to the game, we did it last year and i took about 1 hr to get there. were about 30 mins car drive away from barca so i reckon about an hour and half drive for yourself.

Were stopping on the Alexis in Loret, half board for 5 days and flights from East midlands to Girona and its cost us £125.

I cant wait now!!!!

Well I got the bargain of the year. Booked flights from Donny to girona for £15 each way (including taxes) with RyanAir. Hired a car for three days for 24 quid and staying in the same hotel as last year New Christina in Perpignan for £10 a night less than last year and thats with breakfast included.
Really looking forward to the trip now, dont suppose the weather will be the same as last year but I am sure the travelling Cas army will be in just as good spirit and make it another memorable weekend. Aparently we are on the same flight as the team so will be able to keep an eye on Shifty and Goldy with regards duty freeicon_wink.gif See you all in Castle square friday night.

Cheapo Airlines from Stansted had no flights on the days I wanted to travel (though they would have taken me if I went out on Thursday and came back on Tuesday), and other flights from Heathrow, Gatwi, London City etc, changing at Paris, would have cost an arm and a leg, and taken most of the day – so I'm coming down by by train:

St Pancras to Lillle on Eurostar, change to a TGV at Lille and straight down the length of the country. No baggage claims etc – cool.

Our best laid plans of staying in Perpignan centre are now shot to ribbons because we've booked cheap flights into Girona. Out Wednesday 4th, back Sunday 8th. Hotel not booked yet, but it'll probably be Lloret again.

I love this!! Its like "Planes Trains and Automobiles" all trying to get to the match as cheap as poss, great fun!!

I did it loads cheaper last year but its more this year cos circumstances meant I had to book really late. Good on yer if you get a bargain!

Can't wait, it really is a highlight of the season!

7-8 hours I think from the one time we did it the other way (or maybe less –my train from Lille to Perpignan leaves at 11:56 and gets in at18:44). There are flights to Perps from CDG as well (or maybe from Orly)

But for train info check www.raileurope.com or www.raileurope.co.uk

Thanks for that.

About 5 hours travelling time for direct services and 7+ hours for routes via other destinations.

Looking at the return times I'd struggle to get back to Paris in the same evening so i think I'll probably look at other alternatives.

Expensive too at nearly €200 return
