[Abe Frohman]

If anyone is STILL contemplating a fairly cheap route, consider this:

Fly from Manchester with Tui 1745h Arrive Burgas 2320h £93. Includes 10kg bag.

Book your digs in Sunny Beach.
£60 Return coach leaves at Saturday morning. (PM me for details).

Arrive Istanbul at noon.
Coach returns to Sunny Beach after the game.

Stay in Sunny Beach Sunday night.

Tui flight from Burgas, again with Tui, £140. Monday 12th at 1255h. Arrive in Manchester 1445h.

DON'T LOOK AT RETURN FLIGHTS WITH TUI AS THE FLIGHT PRICE DOUBLES. JUST MAKE 2 SINGLE BOOKINGS.

I looked at taking a week’s holiday in Sunny Beach for a week.
All inclusive was about £350, then hire a car to drive to Istanbul on the day of the game was about £25. The problem I had was taking the car from Bulgaria to Turkey.
Could have taken the whole family for about £1000 for a week’s holiday.

They wouldn’t insure the car in Turkey I assume?

I think so, a friend works for a rental car company and said they wouldn’t do it, so I didn’t take the chance. Wouldn’t have mattered anyway as the only way I could get a passport for the baby in time was get to Belfast for an appointment at the Passport Office.

I’ve got the same flights on hold, just waiting for my 4:00pm slot today to buy ticket.

Just booked 2.35am to saw sat and back 10.05am sun. 61 quid for match tickets too

Looking at this flight also, are you doing hotel or straight to the airport after the game ?

Anyone on the 9.10 flight to SAW on the Saturday? Wondering if anyone wants to share a taxi to the ground, hopefully will have enough time for some beers before the game!

 

[Indaparkside]

Anyone on the 11am Turkish airlines Thursday the 8th arrives 17,05

Meet up on the Wednesday and watch West Ham?

Share taxis to dalaman if your on your own or a couple

Straight to airport after the match, didn’t think there would be enough time to get back to a hotel & then travel to SAW.
