lets do the charter

[RedReb]

lads if someone can get me a number for a charter i will try and organise it if according to some other posts. a 737 with roughly 180 seats at maybe 200 euros makes 36,000 should surely cover a day trip. i have 6 names already would nead to organise early so as if it fell through lads could organise alternative travel.

[A face]

If it is €200 ... then i am there !!

[Fair_play_boy]

http://www.charterauction.com web site quoted €28,300 for an aircraft large enough to carry 200 people. That works out at under €150 a head. And a charter flies when you want it to, so we can even get home that night, making it cheaper all round.

[thecorner]

im all paid 4 anall.i think i was the first :eek:

[Fair_play_boy]

That was quick off the mark!

[thecorner]

That was quick off the mark!


sacrificed my end of game pint for the first time ever

well, put it off for a half an hour anyway :D :D

[derm]

I'd definately be interested @ those prices!

[Corbett]

You can put my name down too

[Ozymandias]

I'd deffo buy into a charter...only way I could go to the match.....as it would have to be a day trip


€200 is cheap....and the flight should be full ifd it goes ahead

[Corbett]

What are the chances of this going ahead? I believe there would be huge deamand if it was advertised well.

[patsh]

:ball:
Is anybody actually looking into this?
Ian?

[ccfcgirl]

id be up for this also

[James]

def up for this if its happening

[Razor-G]

I'd be there as well especially if it was a 1 day out and
back.....

[Citygirl]

throw me down for two seats if you are doing this..

[ccfcman]

call redfm,96fm,the club shop,the echo etc and get this advertised or the idea will be as succesful as a lead dinghy ;)

[Druss]

Def for one, probably for two.
Anybody here prefer to spend the extra day in Nantes though?

ccfcmans idea is good.

[Corbett]

I got onto the club and they said supporters should contact lee travel. E-mail address is jane@leetravel.ie and phone number is ++ 353 (0) 21 772 829

I also contacted the echo and redfm, they both said supporters should start asking lee travel to organise something asap.

[ccfcman]

dont ask redfm for travel advoice get them advertsing this thread

Ring Lee Travel 021-4277111 folks

UPDATE

Just rang them, they are trying to see if there is a plane available I strongly adivse anyone who is thinking of it to ring them now. She said she'd ring back later today to let me know if they can run it.

[James]

just rang and got the same msg as SOC
girl took my number and said she'd ring me back..
shes also gona contact me about the flight too :D

[ccfc till i die]

I'll be there if it's the out and back in one day for 200 job. Might be more than me as well

seán.. keep us updated if she rings back with a plane.. dunno about 180 but it def sounds like substantial interest in this route

[tiktok]

guys, why not ring her yourself?

if Lee Travel are going to organise this last minute they'll need to see the interest is there from the city fans, let's show them that it is :cool: :ball:

[Bigballs]

I reckon it'll be more like €350-€400 for a day trip through a travel agent. The egg chasing is usually about €400 for day trips(not that I ever went to watch that ****e)

[Ianol]

I'd be interested in this aswell, as long as the price isn't too high. I e-mailed Jane too. No reply yet.

[Druss]

e-mailed as well. Could have four additional passengers now. :)
Heres hoping.

[Ozymandias]

ya rang lee travel as well..this sounds like a decent plan....
I'd say if Lee organise it they will charge 350 at least while if we had more time and did it it ourselves we could get it for 250 easy.....hopefully this will work

[Corbett]

Any news or are they after closing for the night?



Lads, I really hope this works.

[kevincronin2000]

Will i book dublin paris now or wait for a charter tomorrow

[James]

no news yet lads
still waiting for my call back :)

[Druss]

I got the "we will let u know in half an hour" letter at half four. Still nothing.
:mad:

[James]

from the Echo


Lee Travel are organising the squad’s travel to France. Declan O’Connell told today’s Evening Echo: “It would cost between €600 and €700 to travel, between flights, tickets and accommodation".

I was worried about that. It would make more sense for Lee travel to push this package, not the one day trip that most people here want to get.

[RedReb]

lads i rang klm airlines today about a possible charter but she said they were fully booked up unfortunatly nothing at such short notice. :mad:

i got the same short notice thing from AirChater.com

[Citygirl]

when i was talking to ure one in lee travel she said she'd ring before six or else in the mornin..so calm down..it'd be great if this went ahead

[aIr BaNd!]

Would be great to fly in and out on the same day.Surely something can be done for supporters by the club.Wouldn't mind paying a few hundread euro's for the trip.To much hassle trying to get flights,accomodation etc but a trip in and out on a charter would be great.

[patsh]

Lee Travel told me that they would know by about 11 tomorrow morning.

[kevincronin2000]

:confused: Looks like they will be too late, a lot of people have booked flights already

[iceman]

Lads , if one of you could contact Michael Caslin at 747Travel , Dublin...he is an expert in this field and if anyone can do this for circa. 200 he's your man...he might even throw in transfers to and from the ground.

[Rebel101]

Would be great if this went ahead. There would be definately four, maybe more, travelling with me. Going to sleep with fingers crossed. :)

[Corbett]

No news yet and its coming to crunch time for Lee Travel and the charter flight.
I for one have put all my eggs in this basket and will be bitterly disapointed if nothing is arranged.

[Corbett]

I just got an e-mail from jane. There asking for seat numbers before they confirm anything.
I asked for three straight away.

[Corbett]

Any Idea of price?

She said she will ring me back with confirmation of flight and prices. Fingers crossed its under 250

You can e-mail her yourself if you wish jane@leetravel.ie

[Razor-G]

I just mailed her to say I would have 3 interested in going
if the flight was all in one day so lets hope she comes up
trumps.....

[Eric]

A few people have been on to me to see if this flight is going ahead so I told them to ring Lee travel and give them numbers. Seems to be big interest in this flight so it'd be class if it went ahead
