  1. We are traveling out with KLM, Saturday 7th Oct Glasgow via Amsterdam to Zagreb, leave Glasgow at 06:05, arrives Zagreb at 13:05. Return, Monday 9th Oct. leave Zagreb at 11:55, via Amsterdam to Glasgow. Looking for another 16 travellers. We would get picked up at Airport, and dropped in Ljubiana. Looking at Flixbus, the times will hamper your ability to have a really good swally on the Sat, and it will be the 06:30 bus from Ljbiana on the Monday. Their price will be £30 each, return. If we can get 19 in total, we could do it for £35, door to door. Getting collected at the Airport at 13:45, arriving into Ljbuana at 16:30, at the latest. Coming back, we could leave 8am, rather than 6:30. Email me at andypullar@btinternet.com if interested.

  3. Update-. Bus Full. Meet in The Beardmore after security in Glasgow Airport. Your seats have been allocated on the bus, to ensure you sit with your mates. Unlike Ryanair, this is free......lol. Any questions, please text me on 07838188162.
  4. Lithania Away- Is anyone on the Ryanair flight at 10:35 from Glasgow to Palanga on 31st August, and returning on the 3rd Sept at 11:35. I am arranging a direct transfer from airport to Vilnius. ( No buses to train station, then waiting about). Depending on numbers, the maximum cost will be £45 return. Luxury coach with toilet. I have seats left. Deposit of £10 each, will secure your seat, with the balance due by 14th Aug. I will also be running buses from Vilnius to stadium (once venue has been decided). Email me at andypullar@btinternet.com
  5. The event is in a venue 3 mins from Leicester Square. No issues here.

  7. Hi Andy

    I had six seats booked on your buses to Trnava on Tuesday. I collected my wristbands from you outside the Loch Ness early in the afternoon and was told that the buses were leaving from the bus station but that we should come back to the pub around 6pm and everyone would leave from there. We were at the Ted Christopher gig up at the Havana and came straight down to the Loch Ness when that finished, arriving just before 6pm - but there was no sign of anyone else for your buses so we made our way by taxi to the bus station. When we got there, there were around 40 other TA folks standing outside but no sign of your buses - obviously as that's not where they left from, despite me being told that in the afternoon. Someone eventually got in touch with you I believe, to be told that we had been given maps of where the buses were leaving from - which wasn't true - and that they were leaving from somewhere else entirely - which wasn't what I was told barely three hours earlier.

    Because we had no idea what was going on, and communication was non-existent - our party ended up booking Ubers to get us to Trnava at a cost of €70, which was ridiculous given that we'd already paid £15 each for your buses.

    We then made our way to the buses after the game but as myself and my other half arrived at bus 3, the driver was trying to pull away saying that the bus was full and we couldn't get on, despite us having bus 3 wristbands. We argued with him and showed our wristbands to prove that we had a right to be on the bus and he eventually relented and let us on. However, there were no seats so my other half sat in the courier seat all the way back and I had to stand for the whole journey (he's a big lad so it was easier for me to stand than him, in terms of space in the aisle). It appeared that there was no-one "policing" bus 3 at all as clearly there were people on that bus without bus 3 wristbands, otherwise we would have got a seat.

    As you can probably tell, I'm extremely unhappy about the way things turned out - between the lack of communication, the high extra cost and having to stand the whole way back to Bratislava, it's safe to say that it was a complete shambles from my point of view. I really feel quite strongly that our party should be reimbursed for at least half of the cost of our fares (and, in my case, the full cost as standing is not acceptable).

    I'd appreciate a response as soon as possible.

  8. So, eventually got confirmation. Due to the amount of Coaches leaving Bratislava, we have been instructed to leave from the main Coach Station. We are meeting up from 2/3pm onwards at the Loch Ness in the Old Town. Paul and myself will be there to hand out the wristbands. There are plenty of bars in that area. It's an 11 min walk to the departure point. You will be directed to your bus by a Steward. We would like to be on the road for 7pm, at the very latest, so please meet ASAP at the pubs. I will post a map of the route to the bus departure point on FB, as the file is too large for this forum. I will put an auto message on my email,address "slovakia2016@btinternet.com" with this message. My number in Slovakia is 07838188162. Thank you for your patience.
  9. Guys and girls. sorry about the lack of info. We are meeting at the Loch Ness Pub, from 3pm onwards. You can collect your wristband and bus number from there. We were to leave from the Crowne Plaza, but there are too many coaches already leaving from there. I have been in contact with the coach company , and will keep you updated with any changes. The Loch Ness Pub is in a pedestrian area, so we will have a few mins walk. My number is 07838188163 whilst in Slovakia. ALL COACHES ARE FULL.
