You can book Milan up to 31st March via UK, so April will probably be released in August.

Aerlingus are 300 days ahead, but they priced all German cities for the Euros at �250 + taxes for the week around the match, so expect the same from them.

Where did you get this? :confused:

Aer Lingus have not loaded up their summer schedules for mainland Europe. You cannot fly anywhere in mainland Europe at the time of the game.

You can fly to Frankfurt with Aer Lingus for 42 euro on March 28th but not afterwards yet.

Same story for Ryanair.

For the match in Stuttgart, when the Germans did not announce the venue after the fixtures meeting, same as Italy now.

Aer Lingus
Flights may be booked a maximum of 330 days from today (latest date Thu 04 Jun 2009)

Ba I think are 364 days ahead.

Ryanair are between 7 and 9 months depending on the mood they are in:D

For the German game Aer Lingus had fares to all German cities quoted at �250 plus for the week of the match until the venue was announced.

Aer Lingus do not have any flights after March 28th 2009 for sale though. You cannot book continental europe after that date.

The flights went up for Germany because Ray Treacy was outside the fixtures meeting and immediately block booked seats on the Aer Lingus flights. The prices then went up automatically as the cheaper seats were sold. I got Ryanair to Baden Baden that day for �120 incl t&c and got very lucky with the venue then.

I can't see the Italian flights going too mad (well maybe Rome) until the venue is confirmed.

I saw that, they only seem to have uk flights even though they say 330 days before, For Germany we booked Frankfurt hahn with ryanair and then changed to Baden Baden when the venue was announced, was about �140 inc change fees etc so not too bad.

You can also get a ferry from Montenegro to Italy for those who want to go back to Montenegro:D, Ryanair fly from Ilan to loads of bvenues within Italy, so will probably book that if we still dont know the venue when they are available.

Reminds me of watching the Yugoslavia game in 99 in Malta, when Starskey or was it Hutch:D scored a cracker of a winner. The game had been rearranged and we were already due to travel to malta and croatia for the double header, but in them days no way of geting back on a cheap flight.
