Is anyone traveling?

Is anyone planning on traveling to London without tickets?

With the obvious restrictions likely to be in place would it be worth it? Would be lucky to get booked into a boozer by the looks of things.

I booked rooms in London when we qualified with free cancellation but things not looking like a normal Wembley trip

We're booked into the travelodge in watford but uness we get tickets we'll be cancelling.

I’ve got a room booked and was coming here to see what folk are doin. I’m up for going regardless but it would be better if we can get tickets to Trafalgar Square area. Anyone else gonna chance it regardless?

[Scotschic]

Yes. Bonus if we get any tickets to attend, if not it’s 3 nights in London. About 20 of us heading down.

I just looked here to see what people were doing for London? Me and 9 pals are going down for it, we were thinking most people would just be going to Trafalgar Square, definitely going ethier way!

LNER train tickets now available for that weekend if that helps anyone.

I really can’t see the point on going down without tickets for this one.

Depends what the boozers will be like in June I suppose.

Won't be going near it unless i get a ticket.

Hotel booked, but I have up to 48 hours before arrival to cancel or they will charge me for one of the two nights I have booked.

Also got Easyet flights booked (gambled before Serbia game when it was £30 return) but unless I get a ticket will not go just for the sake of it (can change my flights up to 6 days before for a free to another flight)

I would imagine with Wembley being 60,000 short of fans at the group stage there will be loads of England fans meeting up in places.

Is/was the official fanzone not in Greenwich & limited to 30,000 tickets?

This will be shite this time.

Going to be a farce with everything that’s still going on.

I still have flight and hotel bookings but both are easily dealt with. It should become clear soon what my chances of a match ticket are. On this occasion it'll definitely be a case of no ticket = no trip. 👍

Still seeing Scotland in a major finals though. Worth the hassle after 23 years of waiting.

TBF, if i don't have a ticket i'd rather watch it in Glasgow surrounded by Scotland fans than kicking about London trying to find a pub with space.

At least they are planning for the most important bit. 

"There are also outline proposals for screens to show a "victory parade" when England win the tournament."

With that assumption are the 12,500 tickets only for Scotland supporters?

Going down to London without a ticket isn’t really seeing them in a major finals.

Totally agree with that. I was meaning for those of us who hope to have tickets. Appreciate the original post was about travelling without tickets though.

If we get tickets we are travelling through from Watford so it'll be straight to The Torch or Crock of Gold. Can't see any point of going to TF.

Got accommodation with free cancellation booked.

Still to book travel but prices are getting more expensive by the day. 

Got 12 points so quite confident of match ticket, still reluctant to pay for train until allocation is confirmed. (got my fingers burnt previously).

Absolutely this. 

This trip is pointless without a ticket, its not going to be like euro 96.

This. I’m considering jumping on a plane and coming up to Edinburgh for the England game. (If I don’t have a ticket, obvs).

Probably more likely to enjoy the day that way!

Cancelled my flights and hotel today, the more I hear about this the less appealing it becomes.
