The email from Sportsworld said to just select a seat number at random, from rows 1-38 and seats A-F iirc. It says Jet2 on the same email.

No names on match tickets for those wanting to source tickets, so won't be any hassle getting in like at Madrid etc.

Has anyone received their 2 day pack for when you get back?

For this, do we literally only need a printed e-mail booking confirmation, and a reference number?
So this, and the 72 hour PCR test

Not wanting to blow anyone's trumpet, but there are a group of us in here and other threads (and I'm not too modest to include myself) who have been very clear and consistent with the advice and guidance.

Whilst people run around like headless chickens, claiming BA are saying one thing, City are saying another thing, Chelsea another thing etc etc ...they are unwittingly making a complex situation even more complex, unnecessarily.

The one that continues to do the rounds is the CL final advice page that the Gov site have shared.
This page IS NOT formal government advice; it's come from the embassy and consulate in Portugal, as clearly stated at the top of said page. It is not direct guidance.

For the avoidance of doubt, the only pages people need to take note of for the most up to date and official advice is the Government pages for entry requirements into Portugal and entry requirements back into the UK.

What about entrance to the ground.
Most are saying 72 hours before kick off for a PCR however UEFA’s site specifically says a test Wednesday, Thursday or Friday will be accepted I.e. three days before

How did you book with Unilabs? I can only find a contact form on their website but no prices or anything.

I went with a Antigen test 25 euro I rang them in this number but to bypass the options in Portuguese I pressed *#*#*#*# and that gets you through to someone

+351 222 401 401

The test centre is about 7euro in a cab each way the test is 25euro and I get the result within 4hrs by phone text or email
A PCR test was 100euro but that takes 24hrs for result so no real point apparat from I could do that in the Friday but wouldn’t get the result till Saturday anyway

I don't have a ticket so haven't paid much attention to the stadium requirements, admittedly.

It's UEFAs comp so their rules; I'd go with whatever their website is saying.

Great. Thanks mate. I'll be driving so can get to the test centre easy enough. Do you have the address?

Tickets arrived!! Flight 6 out at 8 am back at 1.15 am. Bracing myself for an 8am swabbing in the morning ... fortunately I've got a hooter the size of Concorde so, unless I lose the bloody thing up there, shouldn't pose too many problems.
