Champions League Final | Tickets - City Official Package + UEFA Tickets | 2022 Final (pg 1033)

I think it's just best to wait and see. In a little over 24 hours we will likely know how tickets will be allocated and with that I expect information to be provided about the testing requirements. I'm hanging fire until such time.

I can't help but think, however, that the emphasis will be on the official package and testing information only provided for people who intend to travel in such a fashion. Equally, I can envisage some sort of prioritisation with match tickets towards official packages. The Portuguese government may yet allow independent travellers to attend the game but it will be discouraged and disincentivised.

^^ the last thing that was seen/discovered from the Portuguese government interior minister was that anyone (though not uefa cronies) would have to go via designated charter flight, stay in a bubble at the respective fan zones and then back to your plane without leaving the bubble. What happens on return? Well who knows. I haven't seen anything about the change to non-essential travel into the EU, though have to admit not looked for the last couple of days. But the implication was if you're not in the fan zone bubble you won't be getting in to the match
 
Not that it matters now but Turkey have announced that they are decreasing the level of Covid restrictions.

Yes, I got that impression. The only thing that might make me think differently is that there may have been a push-back on this, hence why ticket details haven't yet been released. It is inconceivable that the issue did not come up when UEFA entered into discussions with the Portuguese government. UEFA must have been aware of bubble-only travel.

Lockdown was always going to finish on 17th May anyway. Besides, they can ease them all they want but the reason it was moved was because of the actions of Westminster, not the Turkish government.
 
Still no news from Chelsea about tickets so expect the same approach from them and buttons to be pressed at the same time about tickets, transfer and travel.

My guess is based on points, with not enough club travel packages to go round then free for all. This leaves the high rollers with a gamble of going via the club or gambling that spaces run out and they'll go under their own arrangements.

Either way I'm getting the popcorn ready for tomorrow and sympathy to Emily or whoever on the Tweet Deck.

If there is some priority for official trips only in terms of being allocated a match ticket then I and a few thousand others will be FUCKIN FURIOUS.We beat PSG on 4 May. We’ve so far had almost a fortnight of knowing we’re in the final. Do they expect that nobody will have already made arrangements to get there and back? It’s a free world the last time I looked and to prioritise tickets to those on official trips would be criminal.

If they're left with a half full plane, then they might give a bit of priority to people below the threshold with bookings to fill the plane. That's happened in the past anyway. Shouldn't happen on a large scale.

There was a pretty awful agreement that City Matters (IMO) mistakenly signed up to with Thomas Cook, but hopefully the agreement went when TC did. Think it was only guaranteeing a maximum of one plane anyway so wont be an issue here, and not the time to bring back that argument.

How are we expected to plan anything, it’s less than 2 weeks off and they haven’t even announced ticket sales yet.
