Seems best bet to stay in a resort and travel to Nicosia solely on the day of the game, either rent a car or hop on a bus service, package deal wise you got the likes of Thomson Holidays, Airtours in the uk. Flyglobespan offer flight only deals, medhotels just do accommodation.
3 of us booked up for BA flights over the weekend. 200 sterling from Heathrow on the Thursday and then back on Monday evening in good time for wednesdays game.
Same here, funnily enough ;)Quote:

Cant beat that!!!!
Just incase anyone wants another way of gettin there this is how we did it:
8 of us for a week. Tuesday to Tuesday with the match Saturday
Flights thru www.ebookers.ie
Dublin - Prague - Larnaca (same on the return)
7 nights in a massive Villa in Ayia Napa thru www.villa.cyprushotels.org.uk
And yeah, we all have a bed.
Worked out €500 each
No ticket but hopefully that won't be a problem, the only issue seems to be gettin to & from the game but we'll see if we can sort out a minivan or somethin with the other fans stayin in Ayia Napa.
Come on all you maybe's & hop on the bandwagon.
How many Irish fan's are expected to come to Cyprus?
Colie, thats good!!!
Here, how do you work the airlines website - will only let me choose flights from ireland to prague part (204e) - wont let me choose flights from prague to cyprus

I think about travelling to Larnaca...
A ferry from Haifa shouldn't be very exspensive.
i'd say a lot more Paulie to be honest - personally speaking I know more people that are travelling to Cyprus than travelled to Paris. I'm sure its the same in other areas of the country too.Quote:

tickets should be ok seeing as the cypriots seem to have no interest so im sure they will give us a lot more tickets than usual
Hi Guys
Just Booked Flights And Hotel For Ayia Napa. Ba Have Good Prices At The Moment. Just Wanted To Know If The Fai Will Be Selling Tickets For The Cyprus Game And If When?
Does Anybody Know Any Where Else To Try For Them?
Would Anybody Would Have 2 Spare Tickets For The Game?
Getting A Bit Worried As Dont Want To Go All The Way To Cyprus And Have No Tickets!
Thanks :)
Just put in Dublin at depart & larnaca (LCA) as arrive & it automatically does it thru Prague without tellin ya. I only realised we were goin thru Prague at the very end of the booking.Quote:

Be careful of those dates as we are playing switzerland on the the 12th in dublin on the last day of the campaign. I dont think getting from Ayia Napa to Nicosia will be a problem, there will be buses taxis etc going as loads of irish will be styaing there. As far as I know the last time it was not a problem> read back over the thread and you will find out.
Everyone seems to be staying in Ayia Napa from what they have been saying on this thread. Know people who went out for the game a few years back. Will be speaking to them, but I dont think its gonna be that big a deal where you stay. I will sort it when im back from the Faroe islands. Cheap deals will hopefully be available by then.
When is it possible to register for this fixture?
If I don't hold a member card and I don't live in Ireland, is it possible to register?
Well, you can always buy through the Cypriots... will probably be cheaper, too. Can't imagine they'll have too much interest of going.Quote:
