you do realise that the ryanair "frankfurt" is not the same airport as the cyprus air used frankfurt?? About 90mins transfer time between the 2 i think.

Go to Aer Lingus andn book with them out and lose the Ryanair flight. Too much hassle otherwise. Unless you have loads of time between the flights.
Ryanair flight arrives in to Frankfurt HAHN @ 13.55 and Cyprus Airways leaves from the main Frankfurt Airport @ 14.35 and defo no way you'd make it (even with those times for Aer Lingus). Get the Aer Lingus flight as G4E says. It will work out with no hassle with plenty of time for the transfer (like 4.35 hours :eek:) but Frankfurt is a huge airport
Plus its only 30 euro for that flight. Actually free flight but 30 euro taxes. Could have been a lot worse, not too bad to just have to pay 30 Euro extra. Reminds me of the guy who booked Prague for the Czech game for the dates for the home game in Dublin. Classic.
Hi all,
Thanks for all your advise and help, I have it sorted.
We are flying into Frankfurt on Air Lingus we did this one way as the return on the Sunday was 8pm and we land at 1.pm.
We had booked Ryanair home at 6pm, I have rang the airport and organised a taxi bus to take us to Frankfurt Ham( the other airport ) for the Ryanair flight , works out at €20.00 a head in taxi bus , and we have 4-5 hours wait anyhow, so should be ok , the man said it should be about an hour to hour and half drive between , so you reckon we will be ok ??
HAHA, who was that lad, classic. what a dumbo, in fairness we could all make that mistake!! i wonder did he go out to prague and watch it in an "irish" bar?! :D
Wasn't it one of the Limerick fans?
Reminds me of 2 of the lads I know who went to the Bernabeu for the Real Madrid-Liverpool game last season. Had a great trip, and got to the airport to come home, only to be told the flights they had booked home were for the following month! It just so happened the days and dates were the same in March and April! They eventually got home the next day :D
Believe me, it's not funny! I booked a wrong flight home from a course in London for work; booked the day after. Only saw the mistake on the way out to the airport. All I had to pay was the difference in the standard fare (ex taxes) between what I paid and the new, that night, flight that I wanted instead. I had paid zero, but the flights were now E250 plus tax. Won't make that mistake again.
ryanair and monarch €229 right now sounds good hotel about €5o a nite but not many left
Oh nothing wrong with carrot red. There are a few top class birds on this site who are carrot red.:)
Is there anybody waiting to see if they can get a last minute package deal for a week in Cyprus rather than just going for the match?........thats what i'm doing anyway.
hows it going lads,
i lurk more than post nowaydays but thinkin of heading to the Cyprus game. Have been to a few away games but our mate books everything normally,hes moved to the States now so i said il have a look into doing it this time.
The hotels part i can manage (i think) but the flights have me worried. Where is best to book with? Havent got tickets but should be able to get them over there....shouldnt i? Thinkin of going Fri - Sun/Mon or a full week if i have to.
Any help is much appreciated,
Thanks,
Newbie.
Tickets almost certainly won't be a problem.
Why not apply to the FAI - bbers get priority but there will be enough to go around.
plenty of flight options but www.skyscanner.net is normally the best I find.
Cheers Gspain

Hi,
We have booked Dublin Frankfurt Dubiln ( Air lingus & cyrpus air )
Out Thursday Morning Arrive Larnaca 6pm ( stop off in Frankfurt 3 hours)
Back Sunday morning. Total inc taxes € 330
We then booked Estellas Hotel 3 nights €64 euro each
Total 394
Funniest thing is :
747 Have a package deal , going out the Thursday flying through the night not arriving until 5.30am !
Coming home the Monday evening flight. Staying in same Apartments Estellas
TOTAL € 759.00 ------ What a joke , for the sake of stopping off for a couple of hours id pay the 394.00 and the crack on the stop off is always good !
Everyone should know by now that is is sooooooooo much cheaper if you book things yourself then going with an agent .
Now if you have bags of money or have trouble finding your way out of the bathroom than agents are the way for you to go ;)
Don't know if it has been confirmed before on this site but according to both FAI and Cyprus FA websites the game is in Nicosia.
Another route worth looking at is Via Istanbul with turkish airlines and then istanbul to Nicosia all in about €330.
