Champions League Final | Ticket Criteria | SOLD OUT

[swintonjamie]

I just kept refreshing and managed to buy a Cat 3 ticket…not going to lie I wasn’t really anticipating getting one and haven’t thought through the rest of it

And the opportunity grabbing airlines, between them my trip is inflated by around £200 - £300. Manchester lounge is £41.50, Istanbul Lounge (IST) £13.30.

Turkish airline internal is £78 return Bodrum to Istanbul, £1.80 per seat reservation and a free snack on board. However, just like all other airlines they have inflated their prices for flights from the UK.

Never thought of getting an airport lounge in Turkey. Last few flights I've had have been too early for a UK one and I'm sure they were £20-25 when I've booked previously. As you say they've shot up to 40 odd quid now. Looks like I'll be swerving those from now on.

I'm stuffed. Just noticed my year is wrong on my date of birth in the ticket app.

No tickets are associated with with email address is all I'm getting.

trying to find some way of contacting UEFA.

You can change it in setting profile, I did, but I also sent an email, how to contact them is in the Chumps League App, somewhere.

Sold out. Amazing. What a fucking club. I love you all. See you all in Istanbul for a Manchester takeover.

Bring your best pair of Kickers and your smartest Ben Sherman's, this is gonna be a fucking epic trip.

Alex was spot on with what he said tickets would go down too

He was and loads of others on here expected similar. A few agitators tried to stir things up like always happens when there is a high demand game:

I'm a season ticket holder but I got mine through supporters club but I never got any email saying it had reached my selling criteria ( low points )

They won’t have done unless you requested an access code back at the start.

 

[solley attwell]

They won’t have done unless you requested an access code back at the start.

I applied for a ticket before the Monday night deadline so I was under the impression that when it got down to the points criteria you had was when you were given an access code to buy a ticket unless the club realising I had accessed a ticket through a branch decide not to give out an access code to me( which is proper order)

If you got one through a branch you wouldnt get one through your supporter number

 

[solley attwell]

That explains it.

If you're trying to buy a cat 3 they might be already gone by the time you click on it. This was happening on the City site for the Real game.

Sold out a bit quicker than you expected?

 

[solley attwell]

So basically any season ticket holder who wanted a ticket got one

 

[Whether or not]

Totally agree. Hats off to City for their criteria, on the fucking money. My only gripe being that they should've used last weekend too instead of leaving it hanging between Friday and Monday. UEFA a fucking disgrace for needing over a week to release criteria.

If we get there again, let's hope City wrestle control of sales if possible. Remove the fuck around of access codes.

Control will never be released back to clubs after what the victims did last year. Once again they have wrecked it for everyone.

Not an ideal location but people don't seem to understand just how expensive Amsterdam, Paris, Munich etc are for accommodation and food when an event like this is on. It's not a cheap do especially with the match tickets but presents better value than other major European cities.

Exactly.
If it was in a smaller city (which includes pretty much anywhere else in Europe) accommodation costs would have been through the roof and airfares may well have been just as expensive.

Yet quite a few people on here were adamant we wouldn’t sell out unless it went to Cityzens…

 

[OB1]

I think it is pretty impressive to have sold out to STH, given the cost involved and the cost of living crisis and the lack of official organised trips.

 

[paulchapo]

It worked OK,as they've shifted 50000 tickets in the last fortnight.

Not for everybody it played up a fair bit but yes for the majority it must have worked as we've sold them.

 

[paulchapo]

Just do it Chapo. You know you have to.

I did try but it kept fucking up. I'm easy with it, Casa Chapo's it is, a few drinks and hopefully celebrating. Have a great time all who's going.

I agree, but a sizeable chunk will be non SC holders who have been passed codes by mates not going. Not too fussed about this now as all SC holders got their chance and a lot of these will be young lads willing to bring the noise, like they did in Porto. Met a lot of top young blues over there who didn't get a ticket for the game.

 

[hammocity]

I was in Munich pre Covid and the beer festival was just finishing, hotels were priced from around £200 a night upwards, ended up in Air B&B in a bohemian district for about £130 a night, great place but as stated very expensive due to an “event”.

 

[DunfermlineBlue]

Definitely .. when are you coming back?

Sunday night get back Monday morning
