| Quote: deanos rhinos "We've flown Liverpool - Carcassonne for the the last 2 years and then got the train to Perpignan. It's a a great trip. You'll have to change at Narboune but it's only a 2 hour journey in total.
You can just buy the tickets on the day at the trian station in Carcassonne from one of the those self-service booths, it's all very easy. The train station in Perpignan is in the middle of the town and you could walk to your hotel depending on where you stay. Accommodation is filling up for the Sunday night so I'd be quick. All the trains were those double deckers ones, virtually empty and very clean and on time, you get some great views because you're so high up. I think we paid about £30 return. The link below might help.
rlhttp://www.raileurope.co.uk/Default.aspx?tabid'"
I can vouch for there being a rail-replacement-bus-service in place last year, on the Narbonne to Perpignan section which added to the time a little.
It might be possible to pick up a 'Prem', a French railways well-in-advance cheap ticket for the journey, so that might tempt you to book before you go. Bookings become available around 90 days prior to travel. It is also worth considering that some trains require pre-reservation, so the sooner you do it the better.
Rail Europe is essentially the French Railways UK arm, but they do charge a hefty booking fee if you book them over the phone. If you do it online, rather than send you the tickets to your English address, you can go to the ticket machine at any staffed French station (if even it is not connected to where you're travelling to) and collect / print your tickets there.
NB - Some of the long distance TGVs are double-deckers, but the regional trains (which the chances are will be the ones you're on) aren't much different from what you'd find back home in the UK.
Whilst a lot of people scoff at the overland option, it is worth considering that this might be the way to Perpignan in the future. It is forseeable the cheap air travel will go (certainly the days of the Ryanair flights for pence are long gone), once there is an environmental impact levy placed on airlines and many route will either be too expensive or unviable for a commercial service. Thus, the overland option to Southern France might be the only way of seeing this fixture in years to come. |

I am not suggesting it will be this year or even the next couple of years, but it is forseeable in the near future that there will be additional EU control / taxation on co2 emissions made by commercial aircraft and given the amount of co2-per-mile they generate, the costs could be sizeable.

[quote="Rob Wire":qtnftxzx]WIGAN ARE BACK to what exactly ? Oh i see what you mean, back to beating weakened teams. How many key players did we have missing in the cup ?
Just remind us again how many key players did Saints have missing in last years grand final ?
When did you actually last beat a strong Saints or Warringtom team ? Don't include beating us last year at the HJ, we had a lead of around 14pts and were cruising then we lost both Briers and Monaghan, another example of Wigan capitalising on other teams misfortunes.[/quote:qtnftxzx]

Im not sure when your trip to Catalan is, but when i went last year with wigan (July), we stopped in callela for a week all inclusive. That, plus transfers, cost us £250. I would also, recommend Callela to anyone who is thinking of going. It is in spain but is about an hour or two on a coach. The place itself is great, nice hotels, lots of clubs for those who want to go out and quite a few very good english bars. The atmosphere in every pub/club is great and i thoroughly enjoyed it, so would recommend it to anyone.
