Lads,
Another avenue worth exploring is the eurostar. My da got easyjet flights from belfast to gatwick then eurostar from london to paris for half nothing yesterday...well 160€ return all in...cannae beat it wi a big stick
According to reports, between Ryanair and Aer lingus, it looks like were flying about 3,500 in direct on match day alone. I would say at least another 2,000 will come in the day before direct to Paris by air and then whatever you have travelling through the UK from Ireland, from the UK directly and from the continent.
The eurostar has been heaveing since Monday evening and prices continue to rise. 17 services daily and 558 seats on board. Its not inconceivable that another 3,000 could travel this way over the two days leading up to the match.
I think we will exceed 10,000 at this stage.

You aren't including hte london based lads there either. Everyone i know, which isn't many, but im an example as im sure others know too, are going via eurostar(thats about 15 in total who dont normally go to games), so lets say 100 others know those going via Eurostar in around the same amount thats 1500 people on the eurostar alone.
If what you are saying about direct flights is correct i can see us easily having 10k in the stadium(between all those scattered around the stadium with Froggie tickets etc)
Were flying from Dublin to Luton with Ryanair and then getting an Easyjet Flight from Luton to Paris. Arrives in Paris at 17.45 hope we have enough time to get to the game! All the flights cost €180! There are still some available as far as I know.
If it's any help to anyone, you can get a return flight with bmibaby (flying into Paris tuesday morning, flying out thursday evening) from East Midlands for around £35 sterling.
I was looking into this for a friend in the area so I've no idea if the connections are convenient coming from Ireland, but it's a good deal if anyone can get a cheap flight to East Midlands on those days. Hope it's helpful to someone.
For anyone going back with Easyjet on the Thursday morning to Liverpool, who got their flight moved, making the connection to Belfast a did tight, Ryanair have reduced their midday flight from Liverpool-Derry to £6, which will give ye enough time between flights.

Could be useful for someone.............
junior it might be a little too late!
I looked into it on the very first day Junior and it wasn't offering any £90 deals for going out Tuesday and coming back Thursday.
If anybody wants to try out different days then the final password is indulge.
Flying BMI Baby to Charles De Gaulle. Making a few days out of it in Paris but got my flights for £54 from East Midlands.
Still plenty of flights available.

anyone thinking of driving from the UK/London ? is it worth setting up a car pool to share costs of petrol and ferry / channel shuttle ?
also has anyone heard anything from the FAI about sucessfull applications yet? or anyone know when we might start hearing ?
I'm sure this is probably too late to help anyone but we're going Dublin - London Luton with Ryanair on the day of the match then Luton - CDG (getting in at 17.45, three hours before kickoff). CDG and Stade de France are on the same train line into the city so there's minimal travelling involved. Coming back we're getting the first train in the morning to London (leaves around 6am, arriving at 8am) and then flying Aer Lingus to Dublin at 10am. Passing up on accomodation costs and will only be in Paris for 12 hours but it's enough to see the game and celebrate afterwards! It cost € 130 return each for all that at the start of the week, haven't check again since.
