Dortmund Away

[Bobby the blue]

I’m thinking of staying in Essen but I’m struggling a bit with getting back there after the game. Was playing about in Trainline last night but gets a bit confusing after a while.

Gelsenkirchen/herne/Düsseldorf are all other options but it’s the getting back which is the ballache.

I’m staying in Essen, seems a real pain getting back with loads of trains showing as not available. Hopefully they will come available at some point over the next 2 weeks. Otherwise I’ll take a taxi back as it’s only a 30 minute drive from Dortmund to Essen. I am open to other suggestions though if anyone has any??

Have a look on Deutsche Bahn website (bahn.de) there is an English option but there are local trains RE or S that are free with match tickets from Dortmund to Essen at 23:26, 23:48, 00:07 &00:46.

Will they check the names on tickets? Mine will be the same but Mrs Hoghead will have a different name.

 

[ArdwickBlue_M12]

They didn't check mine last night or in Seville. No idea about Dortmund

There’s 185 remaining, but not sure if that’s from the original 3,193 or is after taking an additional 1,000 that were available.

If I’m guessing, I think it’s from the original 3,193. So at the moment it looks like we’ve sold +/- 3,000. But if I’m wrong and we have taken the additional 1,000, then we’ve sold around 4,000.

Can't work it out either, either there are 1,200 left or 800 (of the full allocation) with 3 blocks remaining.

Saled stopped in effect after the 12pm rush, can't see us taking any more. Not after last night :)

Trains tend to run all night.

Does anyone know if we get free travel from Dusseldorf to Dortmund with the match ticket?

Yes

Does anyone know if we are allowed to take a backpack into the ground at dortmund?

Good option that but worth adding its flying to weeze which is the best part of 100k away from Dusseldorf.

I’ve booked it for 3 of us and never even realised!! Haha

 

[DunfermlineBlue]

If anyones on that flight can share an 8 seater for 160 euros to dusseldorf looks like a ball ache on public transport

Ha. At least you can plan for it now. Best route from there is a bus to Kevelaer then train to Dusseldorf, worth checking the train times though as might not be too often. I think we paid about 100 euros in a taxi one way about 3 years ago.
