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

The day trip looks shit. Bussed to a fun area And a warning that some will not get home until mid morning on Sunday!!!!!
I know its free but that sounds shit, the alcohol will have to be from mcr. airport!

Can anyone who has travelled abroad recently confirm if this is actually the case, the government advice page states 3 days but most airlines say 72 hours and the City info states 72 hours for inbound. 3 days before is not the same as 72 hours, as potentially that could be up to 96 hours before. Surely its the same for all?

In which case if your trip is over 48 hours but under 3 days eg Fri morning to Sunday afternoon then latest test time (to guarantee results) is Thursday morning and I would need test in Portugal to cover the Sunday afternoon flight and a 2 day test on return

Agree that this is a point of confusion. Clarity on it would be welcomed haha

Champions League Final | Going to Porto without a Ticket?

Right, now criteria is out and only goes down as low as 15000 points and on the cup scheme. Who has booked flights / hotel etc and is going to be there without a ticket?. I and my mate are 2 that are doing just that. What can we expect?. Can we get into the fan zone?. I've read that there is...

Is it going to be a similar situation to Wembley Vs Spurs then? You'll have to select your mode of travel, and then your ticket?

If the "independent travel" option is gone by the time you qualify you'll have no option but to select the day package?

That right?

If there's no independent travel option by the time I qualify I'll select the day package, and I'll only be on the outward flight to get my ticket, and I suspect I won't be the only one. The idea that we'll have to travel in a bubble while ordinary British tourists will be wandering about doing whatever the fuck they want, while we'll be penned in and herded around like cattle even though we hold the same passports is an absolute fucking joke and I hope the whole thing is an utter shitshow, with an empty fan park, everyone getting on it in Porto, and UEFA looking like the absolute clown outfit they are.
 
Anybody got any idea of family and friends tickets. I qualify for a ticket at 3pm but my son on the cup scheme only has about 4000 points. Will I be able to get him one or will I need to wait patiently?

If on the day trip, can I use the same PCR test done in order to get to Porto from the UK, for re-entry back to the UK?

I’ve just booked mine the guy said even if it’s in the 72 hour period you still need to do one on return to the uk

I just hope that’s true and it’s not like the league Cup where 750 were available for own travel and the rest spread over train and coach... so those with the most points will take them up

My reading of it is that it will be exactly like the League Cup. It's this line:

'... the majority of supporters must travel on the Club’s official day trip travel package.'

The difference with the League Cup is that they're too scared to announce how paltry the allocation is for independent travellers for fear of a backlash. So qualifying fans will log on and simply find that independent travel option doesn't exist.

The day trip will be boring but does have the appeal of being cheap as fuck, especially if you get a category 3 or 4 ticket

The points really are not an issue at the moment

it goes to season card holders who are on the champs league cup scheme ONLY!

this is a pure guess but I am assuming that this accounts for around 15000? Based on the apathy on this forum for it !

of that 30% won’t bother for what ever reason,family ,cost,age etc

so my guess is that if u have at least 5000 points and are on the cup scheme u should be ok

remember the league cup went to ,no points ,no cup schemes and we only had a couple of thousand

all pure speculation by me ,but based on previous final allocations

I am Not sure about that.
I looked at the original tunnel club brochure and it said you could have a ticket for any match City were in. Effectively another Superbia. It hasn’t seemed to matter in recent years as the novelty of some of our destinations have worn off making matches go for lower points. I went to Real last year on 11k points. If that had been a semi final, I reckon I would have had no chance.

There will be loads creamed off for corporate. To be honest if I was paying what they pay, I’d want one too.

This would surely be impossible to police as you could just dip away from the ground and come back on your original return flights effectively creating security risks where people are not accounted for.

Still think the free travel is great but not the key cost... when you factor in £100 test and potentially the top price tickets that is still a big cost for many at short notice, especially with having to go on a restricted trip

Yep, I’d have preferred spike’s trip but was never totally convinced fans on those trips would be able to buy tickets from the club and I still think government could still change the rules and going with the club seems to provide a bit of a safety net in that regard. Hoping the fan park isn’t too far from town centre and we’re somehow able to get out and have a more genteel booze.
