Badger Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Are the club likely to be organising any official travel package to Milan , or Prague ? I realise it limits the p1ss up potential, but with work commitments thats not really on the list of options.
Dan Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Flights booked to Israel, Milan and Prague with change from £400. Buzzing!
shurlock Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Flights booked to Israel, Milan and Prague with change from £400. Buzzing! How much did you pay for your Israel flights?

I realise it limits the p1ss up potential, but with work commitments thats not really on the list of options. They're putting packages together for all 3 away games, according to the website.
St Marco Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 Pity it was not Roma as literally 10 min walk for me. But will try and get Milan tickets!
Dan Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 How much did you pay for your Israel flights? £240, albeit we've got a 6 hour wait in Istanbul on the way out and 2 hours on the way home. Wednesday to Saturday with Pegasus.
shurlock Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 £240, albeit we've got a 6 hour wait in Istanbul on the way out and 2 hours on the way home. Wednesday to Saturday with Pegasus. Understood. Still a v.decent deal. Thinking of flying in on the Thursday (could be tight) and doing the Friday night in Tel Aviv.
rick1976.4.38 Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 doing milan,sadly prices shot right up from first thing this morning but couldn't commit till this afternoon. £270 flight and hotel,staying at hotel ferton. always wanted to do the san siro but to ****ing see saints there was never imaginable,we march on
shurlock Posted 26 August, 2016 Posted 26 August, 2016 £240, albeit we've got a 6 hour wait in Istanbul on the way out and 2 hours on the way home. Wednesday to Saturday with Pegasus. If you're going to be in Tel Aviv Friday/Saturday, worth noting there will be no public transport because of Shabbat.
Shance Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Can't ****ing wait for the Inter match. Really hope the 6 of us that are going are able to get tickets for it!!
Shroppie Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Understood. Still a v.decent deal. Thinking of flying in on the Thursday (could be tight) and doing the Friday night in Tel Aviv. I'm going Weds to Sat and will be in Tel Aviv Weds and Friday nights. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk
Shroppie Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 If you're going to be in Tel Aviv Friday/Saturday, worth noting there will be no public transport because of Shabbat. Does public transport include taxis? Need to get to the airport on Saturday. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk
JRM Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 If you're going to be in Tel Aviv Friday/Saturday, worth noting there will be no public transport because of Shabbat. I've been doing a lot of reading for Israel - clearly the only trip that needs some proper research in terms of travel, we'll be there on the build up to Jewish new year on 2nd October which will impact travel / hotel availability as locals also travel around a lot. Sounds like a great place will try to visit Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and a night in Beer-sheeva. Hopefully our new Israeli posters on here will share some advice.
Appy Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 So gutted the Israel trip is so short notice for me in terms of time off from work, looks an interesting place to visit.
adethorne Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Going from heathrow to milan with ba, staying at hotel mirage from weds-sat 230 quid each. BA have summer sale on
niceandfriendly Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Should probably be happy for you guys who got cheap deals but...I just can't be XD Might be worth taking a cheap flight to somewhere like Amsterdam or Paris then another cheapy cheapy to Milano. Extra hassle but might be worth a look?
simo Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Might be worth taking a cheap flight to somewhere like Amsterdam or Paris then another cheapy cheapy to Milano. Extra hassle but might be worth a look? Got mates looking at flights to bologna and getting the train from there , still only about £60 !
Joe Kirkup Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Which is best airport for Milan, Linate or Malpensa?

Ado Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 What are the chances of a member getting a ticket for Milan?
Shance Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Which is best airport for Milan, Linate or Malpensa? Linate is closer to the city centre. Malpensa is about 50km away. We are flying into Linate but back from Malpensa.
alehouseboys Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Got mates looking at flights to bologna and getting the train from there , still only about £60 ! Beragmo has an airport (about 1 hour away) and there's also Verona (think they fly from Southampton to there), Turin and Genoa probably only around a 2 hour train journey away. Maybe a few options.
Shance Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Few mates are getting flights to Turin and then getting the train. It's costing them about £60.

Tel Aviv is a proper Mediterranean city -and secular too, so there will be plenty to do on Shabbat (or even because it's Shabbat). Will look to stay in Jaffa if it isn't too pricey and getting around is convenient enough; otherwise stay near the beachfront (parts of Tel Aviv are pretty run down). Beersheba looks really interesting. Literally travelling into the middle of the desert, an area that is recognised as a world heritage site and was a WWI battleground. As you say, it needs some research. Edited 27 August, 2016 by shurlock

saintoaks Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 B*stard! Ha a nightmare yesterday and ended up booking flights and hotel for £190pp, for 6 of us. To be fair, I had to double take when I looked again this morning and make sure I had booked on the right date ! this is what these bloody airlines do, takes the p***
saints_is_the_south Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 The away capacity at the San Siro is approximately 4,500 in the 3rd and highest tier of the stadium, we'll be right up in the gods! We'll be in the Curva Sud end (Inter's traditional home end is the Curva Nord). However I know that when away teams in Europe have been likely to bring large followings for European games they have before moved the away sector to the bottom tier which can hold between 8 and 10,000. That would be the ideal move so then everybody who wants a ticket would definitely getting one. Haven't booked up yet but looking at flying to another city in Italy then getting the train up having seen the prices to Milan rocket in a matter of minutes and hours!

The amount of empty seats Inter have at home games lately, it wouldn't surprise me if we get more, just need the club to be proactive and not do what they do at Chelsea every year.
Saint Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Anyone else struggling to secure their season ticket seat for the Europa bundle?

rick1976.4.38 Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 someone on here said flight prices don't go down the next day,well they have. flights on easy jet at four when I booked yesterday cost me £250,leaving Gatwick at 9am and back Friday at 13.50 today same flights £87 ****ing **** take
Sour Mash Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 I'd recommend people start looking at other options for tickets to Prague away game, away allocation is tiny compared to demand.
Papa Shango Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Sorted flights for all 3 games now. Not able to book immediately after they were announced, but still did ok price wise. Prague £90, Milan £120 and Tel Aviv £240. All Thursday - Saturday, can't wait.
shurlock Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 someone on here said flight prices don't go down the next day,well they have. flights on easy jet at four when I booked yesterday cost me £250,leaving Gatwick at 9am and back Friday at 13.50 today same flights £87 ****ing **** take Of course, they do - at least for the big routes. Gemmel's a f**king amateur. Look on the bright side: the financial hit won't be too much in the grand scheme of things and you got peace of mind by booking early.

Ok so there is a public transport in Shabbat . (Friday Saturday ) taxis only . A night in tel aviv and a night in Jerusalem sounds great there is lot of hotels tel aviv is a great city you would love it. If you visit Jerusalem you must go to the Kotel ! In be'er sheva there's only one big and good hotel called "Leonardo" the city also great for a beer night . They have lots of pubs and good clubs there's no beaches in be'er sheva. they have 11 malls one mall Is the largest mall in the Middle East . Israel and Middle East problems : this days all good in Israel very quite all calm Muslims and Jews live toghter peacefully this days.

Milan has 3 internaional airports so thier are plenty of flights. you only book early if you need to use avios points as they have restricted numbers. School boy error thier my friend

Shance Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Really need the tickets to go on general sale. Otherwise we'll be trying our luck outside the ground.

JRM Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Good to see the club have already opened up blocks 43 and 44 of the Northam stand for the Europa league bundle, an opportunity to make it a proper full home end all stood for European nights. I can't see many away fans attending the games at St Marys unfortunately, Prague will have the most I reckon partly thanks to many Czechs living in the south east. Inter don't travel particularly for these sort of games.

I can't PM you as I can't afford the membership fee of this website but will keep an eye out for your posts. Do you think there will be any issue travelling from Beersheba to Tel Aviv on Friday morning?
Sour Mash Posted 27 August, 2016 Posted 27 August, 2016 Be'er Sheva seems a big university city, which should mean decent night life.
