Public transport is free for tourists in Bern if you are staying overnight. There is a Bern Welcome App you can download and you activate it with a code from your hotel (the room reservation number in my case) It covers all local trains, trams, and buses and will get you to the Wankdorf Stadium. Every little helps with the beer prices. There is also one in Geneva if you are coming from there. My hotel there sent me a link.

Getting around Bern - Bern Welcome

Its central location in the heart of Europe and excellent national and international connections make Bern easy to reach from anywhere in the world. The extensive public transport network connects all parts of the city, and thanks to Bern’s manageable size, you can go almost anywhere on foot.

Any tips on travel between Bern and Thun for the EDS game are welcome? Interlaken and the Eiger are tempting... until you see the prices for everything nearby.

You can take the train from Bern to Thun, travel time is around 18-20 Minutes if you take an Intercity train (S-Bahn is slower and stops everywhere). If you have the free public transport card from Berne you can buy a ticket for 6 zones instead of 8 zones so the trip is slightly cheaper, but still expect to pay around 30 Francs. They will sell you a Libero-Tageskarte which makes sense if you do the return trip. From Thun you can catch the Bus No. 3 in front of the train station to "Arena, Thun", takes less than 10 Minutes (included in your Libero Ticket). Or you can walk there in around 30 Minutes - leave the station at the back exit as the Stadium is in the other direction instead of the City. Thun is also nice for a little stroll around the river and the Old Town. Interlaken as a City (it's more a village) in my opinion is much overrated, it is more a gateway to the tourist hotspots like Jungfrau and so on. A trip to the Eiger takes to much time (if you want to visit the Youth Match) and will brake your bank.
 
Hopefuly drinking in Barbiere craft bar before game. Staying at Moxy hotel 10 mins from ground and bar open 24 hours. Could be fun afterwards!

That'll go some way to explaining why we were sat at the gate in Nice about to board at 530pm when the flight got cancelled.

We're now in Geneva having waited 4 more hours in Nice to fly with Easyjet.

Hotel and travel plans from Basel all gone to pot.

We're hoping for a better day today!

Safe travels. Hope the day goes as smoothly as a Mr Whippy cup final opener.
