Eurostar ? Fully refundable ?Booked euro tunnel for £335 fully refundable. Seems a sensible option as I imagine prices will continue to increase after tonight
Standard tickets aren’t fully refundable but you can change dates for a small charge, 1st class is fully refundable.Eurostar ? Fully refundable ?
Driving down to Folkestone mate to get the tunnel across then driving from Calais to Paris if we make it.Eurostar ? Fully refundable ?
There's a few Ibis hotels coming in at between about £375 and £500 in total for those 3 nights. Reasonable locations and not miles out of the city. I got lucky and have had one reserved with free cancellation a couple of weeks back for £90-odd a night staying on the Friday and Saturday but like I say you can still pick one up for not much more than that per night. Not sure if they're still doing free cancellation at this late stage though:Booked Glasgow to Paris for £105 when the venue was changed (and got £21 return train tickets up there in the rail sale recently), Friday to Monday. Accommodation is a joke though, no good options really.
Some hotels are asking over £20k for 3 nights, and some basic ones asking for over a grand
I looked this morning and the Eurostar is almost fully booked for both Friday and Saturday. Most blues are going to have to drive themselves there, as when Liverpool get a decent result tonight they will book any remaining planes/trains to Paris.Right, I've taken the plunge and booked the following:
27th May-29th May:
Manchester to Amsterdam with KLM - £147 return (although the flight isn't refundable, you can change it to a different date if we don't qualify - plus any fare difference if applicable - and use it for a city break in the 'dam
27th May:
Amsterdam to Paris on the high speed Thalys train - £82 (this is 50% refundable if we don't qualify)
29th May:
Paris to Lille Flandres on a regional train - £9 (non-refundable)
Lille Europe to Brussels Midi on the Eurostar - £26 (non-refundable)
Brussels Midi to Amsterdam on the Intercity - £29.50 (I think this is refundable for a 5 Euro fee)
It's a bit of faffing about but no-one is getting it door to door for anything like a reasonable price at this stage. I think to do it for £300 is about as good as anyone is going to get now, and a lot of that cost comes with options for refunds and changes to flights. For the bits that aren't refundable/exchangeable, I'll just whack a bet on Real to qualify to offset it.
