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

[Blue Maverick]

Key points:

Official Day trip NOT mandatory

Collect tickets in destination

But Chelsea haven’t offered to pay for the trip so they will rely on their own fans making their way there.

Just hope that the tickets don’t have a allocation and solely sold on loyalty points with or with cup scheme (albeit I’m in it) and they don’t limit the amount of tickets available for independent travel like they did with the league cup and those 750 allowed to go by car

Well Chelsea don't appear to be doing

I would have thought if this happened it would be a condition imposed by UEFA and / or the Portugese authorities... so they would have insisted on it for both clubs

They are subsidising the day trip. It's £199.

bargain for them given you can get 2 day flights from London for less than that!

There’s gonna be about 5000 blues getting about in wheelchairs in Porto

So UEFA are happy for Antigen tests (£40), but we need to have a PCR test (£80/90) to enter Portugal? or are we allowed to enter with an Antigen test?

That's my thinking too. So if City were to impose that condition themselves..........

This is just for the game

With those hills you'd be struggling

 

[Ribchester]

They have Friday set aside for any remaining tickets though

Also suggests they will

That's my thinking too. So if City were to impose that condition themselves..........

City have to follow Chelsea surely, can’t see them prioritising this cheap offer first for those choosing to fly in and out on the Sheiks £160 saver ticket

Another cog in the ever confusing testing regime UEFA require a PCR test doing within 72hrs or a LFT within 48hrs of stadium entry... so for those going for a longer period It could mean them having to do 2 tests over there!

 

[beermusic]

I am lost now on the testing. Chelsea travel conditions state this
As per government guidelines, all people travelling between the UK and Portugal must show proof of a negative PCR covid-19 test before boarding. The test must be taken within 72 hours of departure of both your outbound and return flight*.

So if you go Fri to Sunday the earliest you can take a single test is the Thurs but you would have to have immediate same day results, otherwise its 2 tests ie a second one in Portugal??

Pretty much, this has been well known for a few days

 

[M18CTID]

I'm not being funny but now that Chelsea have released their ticketing details, there's absolutely no excuse for City not to release theirs. The issues with the Portuguese govt have obviously now been ironed out so the club can't hide behind that.

 

[Higgy]

For those who are arriving earlier than wednesday night

Or those going home on the Tuesday but they would need to take a Test on the match day to use that to also get back in the uk

 

[Tarnat]

Sorry to be a pain, but I'm flying Thursday lunch time and returning Sunday morning. I know I need to take 1 test prior to leaving the UK, and book one in for my return. Am I right in thinking it's just then 1 LFT test needed whilst in Portugal?

 

[chaddblue]

The confusing issue with Testing in Chelsea's announcement is that there appears to be two criteria you have to meet

1) To board your flight you need a negative test within 72 hours of boarding
2) To get in the game, UEFA say you need a negative test within 72 hours of entering the stadium

So if you're arriving a couple of days or more before the game, you're going to need a test in the UK before leaving and a test in Portugal before going to the game. Then if you're staying in Portugal for few days you will need a test before leaving, then another test in the UK within 2 days of arriving back

I don't know if I've completely misunderstood that !!!!???

Does it state anything about a test 2?
