i remember the 99 play off draw being on rte radio 1Originally Posted by SuperDave
Anyone else planning on having a few tabs open in a browser, each with flights ready to go for each of the four possible destinations? Does anyone know if ryanair/aer lingus will have jacked up the prices to all 4 before the draw is made?
france portugal easy to get to but greece russia trickier. the reverse is prob true of tickets for the away games
Ryanir dont fly to 3 of the 4
Aer Lingus only fly to 2 of the 4
Aer Lingus will have the prices jacked up prior to the draw
Ryanair wont be bothered but will sell out quickly
France is easy to get through with a huge choice of connections through the UK and the Eurostar
AerBaltic / BMI / KLM and Possibly Lufthansa all do Moscow for around 350
Lisbon and Greece are a bit harder to get to in terms of low fares airlines

Any tips on how or where to get tickets for the away playoff?
The FAI will distribute all tickets, there should be no problem as we will get 10% of the stadium and based on the numbers at the rest of the qualifiers I doubt if we will get anymore than 2,000 going.

So will it just be a case of contacting the FAI?
Edit: In fact, I just check their website. Says you must email them with your interest, and that preference is given to block bookers. I'm a block booker, so I'm wondering does anybody know the limitation on how many tickets I can ask for?

Probably up to 3000, if you guarantee to take the rest of the Monty tickets off their hands....
Unless it's France on the saturday, I'd be surprised if there were more than 3000 at any of the matches.
Russia won't attract many more than 1000.
Greece I'd predict between 1500 and 2000, depending on the day.
And you could get 3000 in Portugal on the saturday I reckon, laround 2000 on the Wednesday.
No matter where, there should be no problem with tickets.

As many as you like. If they need the whole allocation, you mightn't get all you ask for though.
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
Train between the two seems to be about €40 so not too bad.
Be nice if Michael O Leary put his money where his mouth is in saying YES to Europe in giving fans cheap flights to the play offs should it be Portugal or France and getting as many over as possible.
It may be well worth his while in the long run if we do qualify.
Who is this guy, Trapper Tony?
Except the only place Ryanair fly to from Dublin is Paris (Beauvais) which is about 60 miles from Paris. They don't fly to Greece or Russia at all and the only Portuguese destination they go to from Ireland is Faro in the Algarve, miles from Lisbon and even further from Porto.
That said, they do fly from Stansted to Porto, so if the game is there, it may be worth looking into booking two flights.
He did it for Bari although I suspect Mick was more interested in making money from football fans rather than being nice.
However I won't complain because Michael has dramitcally reduced the cost of following Ireland abroad when I use Ryanair and when I don't.
1pm our time. SSN said they're taking it, although it'll probably be a pundit in the studio.
