Its a nightmare before May as no direct flights up north, we flew from Bristol Friday am and came back sun evening. Toulouse itself is a good crack, melting pot is the focal point but plenty to see and plenty places to drink/eat. Enjoy - the stadium is a fair way outside town though but on a bus route

Seems like they're on about a charter rather than scheduled flights, which I'm pretty sure has already been done by the odd SL club. Warrington, for one, springs to mind though I may have got that wrong.

Gutted as I've just found out this clashes with a major event at work so no France trip again for me

We are due there in the Easter hols. Flights are horrendously expensive do will drop our numbers going. I'm sure like you Toulouse would have wanted us in good weather and big numbers.

I think Toulouse possibly suffers due to it not being a 'touristy' destination.

Though, that said, you'd imagine that if it was basically a business market that the airlines are supposedly serving then there would be little difference between summer flights and and those out of holiday season, yet the flights apparently disappear when the cooler weather hits.

As for Easter, I can remember doing Perpignan for an Easter Sunday or Monday match, flying from LBA into Montpellier iirc [though it might have been Barcelona] and it wasn't more expensive than the other occasions to be fair.
