Hey lopez, who flies to Brindisi and from where? Just had a quick look online and seems to be about 100km from Bari? Is there a train service or other connection do you know? Thanks.Originally Posted by lopez
Booked to Brindisi. Pretty near. Fly in Tuesday. Better be there, now!
Cheers - just booked Ryanair to Milan easyjet to Bari for €200 returnIt's pretty much confirmed. They all say their source is the FIGC. They're webmaster's probably on Christmas holliers (last story from 22nd December).

In plain English, hotel booked already. Flights to Milan, just waiting for 100% confirmation to book the MIlan Bari flights

Aye,
I booked
Dublin-Stansted- Bari(Monday with Ryanair)
Bari- Gatwick- Dublin(Thursday with BA and Ryanair)
Anyone any idea what local time this game is likely to kick off at?
Im thinking of getting a flight to bari airport at around half 5, should i have enough time to make it to the game?
FKK it, loss my nerve
Because of Today FM going into a bit of detail and not just a one liner, the above references,the Bari connection to the personnel in Italian FA, the difficulty in getting to Bari, difficulty for good good hotels and the fact I will only be doing a tue-thur and so cant swan around Italy all week i have booked one way flights (E75) and hotels - not a great choice for hotels and Italy can be very hit and miss but at least you can cancel hotel
After I booked I see the FAI are urging fans not to make travel arrangement until offical confirmation although they have informal confirmation? Today FM reports now carry the FAI advice

it may have been better if they posted it on their web site - Awe well I took the chance, may be able to sort something out if its not Bari. Will wait for offical confirmation until i book the return
Milan Bari return booked €58 all in on top off €110 Dublin Milan, not bad at all, roll on April fools day

They really are determined to make us sweat on the venue, and wait as long as possible.The Germans told us we'd be playing in Stuttgart within a month of the date being announced.
Interesting to see if the tour companies charge €800 for this trip, when the demand falls.
flights booked.Looking for Hotels where lods of fans are staying Happy New year two
all away Supporters Im ****ed.

We are the Galway Boys Stand up and make some noise"
Irish Times site now reporting Bari as "surprise choice" for ROI qualifier.Bari from my limited research looks like the Sunderland of Italy.Passionate football fans, yo yo club, in an industrial City, was gonna say kip, but hey, its Christmas, and every city can't be Cork
just booked a connection form milan/malpensa to bari(thanks Green Forever for info as we had flights to milan booked since sept 08).
We are on belfast to milan on the tue(goin there) & reverse trip on thur(20.45). Due to this 3 of will spend tue night/wed morning in ,malpensa airport & i now i know this is cheeky but would anyone one be willing to let 3 boys have a a few hours kip in their bari hotel(we will pay you) during the match day(for a coulpe of hours 12.30 -4 to sleep/shower) & maybe that night (when we win there will be no need for it - will be locked(but like to cover all base's)
Surprise to who??
They put the Scots in Bari, so it was always a possibility.
Decent stadium afaik, athletic track, good location weatherwise, so not bad. Poor though for the travel agents and press corps, who banked on Milan/Rome, and hiked their prices as a result. €800 - WTF????
Likely to be 20.00 I would of thought, You should be alright even with a hours delay - taxi direct from airport ?
Their 2 home games in the group so far have been played at 20:50
Looking at various clips on utube, the Scots really seemed to enjoy Bari.Given the time of year and southerly location, beers on the beach look a distinct possibility.Also the stadium looks class, and the locals generated a real football atmosphere.The Scots end wasn't full, but other sides were packed.Try, italia v Scozia a Bari ,on utube.
gufct,
4 of us booked into the Mercure as well.
To anyone else, I'd advise getting booking hotels in Bari asap as there aren't many. Also in a Ryanair stylee, most hotels in Bari are nearly in Foggia.
Looked at the Mercure but decided on the Boston - as its right in the centre
