GaryWood34 Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Still very cheap to stay in Germany for 11/12 nights. Still very cheap to get in to and home from Germany. I’ll book tomorrow. Really is the perfect location for a tournament. Unfortunately we have a run of disaster locations after this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long lie then travel down and catch a late/early train back to Dusseldorf after the game Load of us based on Koblenz and booked Airbnb’s for 2 weeks, delighted with the draw, Munich just over 4 hours and a great train ride, Cologne hour and a half, Stuttgart just over 2 hours. Happy to avoid 6-7 hour train journeys to Hamburg, Leipzig and Berlin. So our gamble paid off. Me and Marky ( who occasionally posts on here ) done a wee recce 8 days away in September ( Düsseldorf, Cologne, Koblenz and Munich ). And we’ve ended up with 2 of those host venues. Despite being the host nation I think Germany are one of the poorest of the pot 1 teams, nothing to fear from Hungary or Switzerland, the 4 best third place teams qualify for the last 16, one win could well do that, 4 points definitely, great chance of progressing. I’m away for a lie down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m away for a lie down. Maybe catch up with you and Marky over a beer. Few of us from Guernsey going over. Taking ferry to St Malo on 12th then making way to Augsburg (near Munich) by train over 2 days with a night stop over en route. Probably do same return journey. Got hotels booked quite near each venue. Booked loads on free cancellation basis weeks ago. Now in process of cancelling the ones we don’t need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave78 Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Dublin to Munich on the 13th. Was on the ball and snagged it for 67 euros. Thought i had booked a flight back from Stuttgart on the 24th, but Opodo cancelled my booking (presumably because the price of flights shot up when they actually went to book them with KLM). Moral of the story is: always book direct with the airlines, not the agencies Skyscanner uses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDYER63 Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 15 hours ago, Jersey Jim said: Guernsey and Jersey boys mixing, what could possibly go wrong 👀 What, like spending a kings ransom on hospitality tickets , booking travel to Koblenz, nowhere near Munich, for 14 th june then a mad scramble to change the travel after Scotland are in the opening game. Or how about leaving a bag with passports on a bus in Genoa and having to sit for hours at a wee koisk that sold beer , hoping the no25 bus would somehow pass by again ? Or getting so drunk you need to get carried to your hotel and the manager refusing to let you in the normal lift and bundling you into the service elevator then breaking the bed futon that you fall into . That kinda thing ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McTeeko Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Me and the laddie basing ourselves in Frankfurt for the first week with one night in Munich and one night in Cologne on match days before four nights in Stuttgart 🇩🇪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim Jim Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Will do the 2nd & 3rd games, with only a one-nighter booked so far: nr. Frankfurt airport on arrival. Booked flights from Newcastle after the draw as Glasgow prices were going up faster than I could type. e.g. £100pp more when I realised I had to go back and add another. If there are England fans on the flights at least they'll be Geordies 😄 Won't be stopping over in Frankfurt between games as they are playing there during that time.

GaryWood34 Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Are people paying £800 for one match?!! I’m under £800 for 11 nights and 3 games. Get researching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
