What about packages for the 2 games? I think if the travel companies do the double, it will have to be the way to go. Did anyone do the Albania - Georgia double with a travel agent?? It will be expensive but I don't know if going solo will be that much cheaper, and the trouble..........

You see trouble, some of us see craic.It will be expensive but I don't know if going solo will be that much cheaper, and the trouble..........
One of our lads was looking at a ferry across the Black Sea as an option.
yeah i think it really is one for the hardcore.... planes, ferries, trains etc. i reckon you will need to take up on 8 flights to do the trip entirely by plane therefore the option is really package trip or roughneck style!!!You see trouble, some of us see craic.

hey Tom, what total are you coming up with?
Here's a cheap option:
Thurs. Sept 4/ Monday Sept 8 Dublin - Riga return with Ryanair €92
Fri. Sept 5/ Sun Sept 7 Riga - Tibilisi return with airbaltic €145.
Only snag is arriving into Tibilisi 3am and leaving at same time night of match but it's a great price. Unfortunately i cant make it beause no reasonable way from Tibilisi to Montenegro, so it's just Montenegro for me.

I've actually paid for my flights incl Tbilisi to Prague. As per the website they only appear to fly from April to October but that is fine for us.
Ya maybe if I was 12 years old and leaving the country for the first time I might feel thee same....... Sure you can fly into Malta for the Italy match, get a boat to Italy and then get a train to wherever the match is.....You see trouble, some of us see craic.

Personally, I'd well prefare to fly direct Tbilisi - Podgorica!
Anyway, Georgian Airways fly from a few handy destinations in Europe i.e. Vienna, Paris (at decent times). But you don't seem to be able to book it on-line. Check it here: http://www.airzena.com/index.php?m=2.

How much was the Tiblisi to Prague flight.

Spent toomuch time trying to find a scheduled overland or sea route.
Sailing the Black sea takes too long - you don't arrive in Varna until the day of the Montenegro game
Similarly with rail - You'd need to leave Tbilisi immediately after the game, if I have things right, and then you are reliant on all connections working to time, getting minibuses at the right paces at the right times, not really having more than an hour anywhere to get off the train and buy food, and so on. Must go through Turkey as the troublesome North Western Corner is blocked at the moment what with some place (Astrakhan? I cannot recall) deciding it is a country, and Russia kind of nodding it on.
So, What I am reckoning, for the adventurous type, is buying a van in Tiblisi, setting off the morning after, and going hell for leather on the quieter Turkish roads, driving for about 18 hours a day, for the following three days, not including time spent at border control, going Turkey, Bulgaria, Serbia, Montenegro (Uncertain of the current situation in Kosovo, and the speed you could manage the back roads through Kosovo at). The fourth day should be about 8 hours travel, and you should arrive in Podgorica for 16h. If the van doesn't die, you don't get stopped by cops wanting a bribe, remember to bring enough food, don't encounter a major "cattle on the road" incident, don't annoy any North Eastern Turkish Kurds, you should make the game with time for a pint. As long as it isn't a three o'clock kick off.
I'm up for it - anyone else?
By the way, I should mention that I don't drive...
That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.
Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!
oh my god! what a great idea!
buy a van among five guys for usd$500 cash... usd is the currency of choice... and drive, drive, drive... maybe 2000km at average 50kmph given the roads, cities, border control by 4 etc etc etc, maybe even 40kmph... means 50hrs driving or thereabouts = 16hrs a day, sunday monday and tuesday....
just about doable.
I just booked mine for €440 all in. I have the mother of all trips on the Monday though
Dublin - Riga Thursday
Riga - Tiblisi Friday
Tiblisi - Riga Monday
Riga - Stansted Monday
Stansted - Zadar Monday
Not booked the final bit as I might stay in Croatia for a few days and chilll out.

Was actually thinking of doing something on the lines of flying into London and doing the rest by train if it was possible. Don't mind travelling and it might be fun.
Will wait for the Eicom League fixture list first to see whats happening that week
BMI fly from heathrow to Tblisi. about £400 return from london. 5 hour flight. depart friday return monday.
The boss thinks im off sick!
Details of some flight options in the summary thread; mainly taken from here. Just easier to see, if anyone's looking through the thread.
I was actuctally dreaming up doing a smillar thing for one of the games, it would certainaly be an experience. I've no idea if its feasible though. Have you looked into it at all?
