I don't get to many away games these days as I work overseas on a rotational basis and always seem to miss out on the games, think I'll skip the Ireland away trip and fly over to Yerevan after the Ukraine game, was looking at the 9th of June, Lufthansa, Glasgow - Frankfurt - Yerevan, easiest way which I can see 

Was on holiday in Armenia in September, was fantastic, Yerevan was cheap as chips, out with the city even cheaper, loads of good bars and restaurants in Yerevan, similar feel to Tbilisi, loved the 2 trips to Georgia (except for the game's) so looking forward to this one

Was in Yerevan for work in 2019. Great place. I went in with Aeroflot via Moscow. Never again. 

 

LOT via Warsaw is a good option. KLM and Lufthansa connect too.

Not bothering with Dublin as I did Yerevan on route to the last game in Georgia and loved it, so used the chance of a start from Scotland to do Glasgow-Brussels-Kyiv-Yerevan / Yerevan-Kyiv-London (stansted)-Glasgow and go this for £160 return.

Going from Dublin to Amsterdam/Armenia Way back to Amsterdam then Edinburgh. Getting train or lift to Newcastle to get flight to Dublin as flight was £16

Dublin to Paris CDG on 12th June then on to Yerevan direct from there via Air France.  Back to Paris and home from there on 15th . Bit of an early flight on 15th but beggars can't be choosers

Just booked Aegean Air.

Heathrow - Athens - Yerevan. Out on the Sunday back very early on Wednesday. 

couple of hours turnaround in Athens.

Looking forward to it (albeit 6 months away). Really enjoyed Georgia.

Still have an option to go to Dublin on the Saturday and then fly back to Bristol first thing on the Sunday.

Presuming Yerevan in June will be scorchio. Considering what September in Tiblisi was like. Thinking of ditching the kilt (wore it out once in the first night in Tiblisi and sweated my tits off).

Just booked Dublin > Lyon (Aer Lingus Sunday) > Yerevan (Fly One Armedia Monday) gets in at 6pm which is better then the silly o'clock connections from some places. Lyon looks great.

Would imagine so. I was across in 2018 and I reckon I'd have melted wearing a kilt.

Went to Tbilisi last time via Yerevan, and for somewhere only 4 hours drive away, it was noticeably hotter (especially at night) and that was in October.

Jesus! Hotter than Tbilisi.

One of only two games where I’ve gone “taps aff”.

Alicante being the other.

I was thinking about that route but still not committed to Dublin yet.

I’ve got the option of booking separately if I decide later on from Bristol.

Hoping for a shorter package with direct flight to come up for this one. Wonky Sheep saying they plan to offer a four day/three night package which is too long for me unfortunately.

Seems unusually long. Especially straight off the back of a Dublin trip.
 

Can’t remember a charter company doing more than 2 nights. Certainly not common anyway.

Dublin to Vienna on the 12th, stop over for a night and then direct to Yerevan afternoon of the 13th. Going via Paris on the way back.

Hmm, with the Foreign office tonight advising all Brits to get out of Ukraine, I guess that rules out flying to Yerevan via Kiev. Probably also advisable to ditch any plans to go to Ukraine in September,

Posted

Yup airlines now cancelling flights to Kiev and possible no fly zone over whole of Ukraine airspace. Bit of a nightmare to get sorted

Looks like the via Kyiv routes are scuppered. 
 

That’s if the Armenia away game isn’t a casualty of the playoff. (Please no).

My flight from Paris-Riga-Yerevan on the Sunday after the RoI game has been pulled. Now wondering IF we'll get the rest of the flights re-imbursed?? Cancelled the week's apartment already as wife#1 says she's gone off the idea. Still working on the earlier "Moldova/Ukraine trips were brill" route but fear this might not proceed. Anyone with experience in cancelling flights (expedia will only refund the Riga-Yerevan part and I've to claim the others...........barstewards. Took the money fast enough don't they!!
