Champions League Final in Madrid - travel arrangements

[skiba]

What's the drive like?

5 to 6 hours.

We were going to drive all the way but this way is quicker and the cost is around the same.

Out if interest, how do you know where you are in the points list? I know how many I have but is it poss to tell how far up (or more likely down) the queue that puts me?

500-549 469 4
550-599 283 6
600+ 325 10



LP - loyalty points
ST - Season ticker holders
OHM - one hotspur members.

There are roughly 13000 ST holders and 1000 OHM with over 200 points. Another 6000 between 150 and 200 points so the cut off will likely be somewhere around there.


Edit - sorry, it looked much better in the preview!!

5 to 6 hours

You gonna share it with someone or do it yourself?

I've done 5 hours in a Mustang on the West Coast of the states.
5 hours in a Corsa through Lisbon and Spain I'm not so sure about lol.

Although I wouldn't have the wife nagging this time.

Original plan was to drive all the way from London so the 5 hours or so from Lisbon shouldn't be a problem.

Flying to Valencia Friday night returning Monday morning- £400 inc train to/from Madrid and about £100 for two nights in Valencia and one in Madrid.

Assuming everyone applies? Might it get complicated with different prices and how much folk are willing to pay?

Is that sleeping rough?

 

[JCRD]

Im really hoping for either people drop dead or people decided not to go cos of the costs or just decide not to go.

Im loking for snookers to get a ticket - I have 190 points.

Fucks sakes

I am serious considering it.

Flights and a shit car coming in at £360 from Stanstead.
I think I need to wait to find out if enough people decline a ticket though. 101 points is too risky.

A mate booked a cheap hotel in getafe and valencia accom is fairly cheap.

proper room or a 8 bed hostel?
I couldn't find anything in Madrid within an hour of the stadium for less than £400 the night and some of those were hostels.

Firstly I wish to make clear interrail is far cheaper than most options suggested. Even with booking it will be 300 euro ish. Another options with those with time is to fly to France and blabla car it. Travel is expensive in Spain an blabla car is very common place and affordable.

also interrailing will give you flexibility in accommodation.

also the atleti stadium is well connected to commuter towns. For accommodation try alcala de hernares I think trains and buses run late. Night buses also run through the night and connect to many commuter towns.

 

[stonecolddeanaustin]

Two emails from spurs today and nothing about tickets. They're trolling me I swear!

Twin bed in a hotel. No idea what it’s like cos my mate booked it. He booked it a while ago though presumably hotels were always pricey as they’d have known they were hosting it but perhaps they went up once they knew Barca werent in it as less demand to stay over.

It’s a bit if mate but we may have space for one more in one of twin rooms if you’re on your jack and don’t snore!

I'm gonna wait until I know whether my shitty loyalty point score will be enough.
You can't get refunds on flights and £350 is a bit steep.
