Foxes1 Posted 24 April 2016 Posted 24 April 2016 What you have to look out for is some flights include a change at somewhere like Copenhagen shouldn't be a problem but will add some extra time to travelling hours
Frost Posted 24 April 2016 Posted 24 April 2016 Flying from Stansted at 8:30am on the Tuesday, flying back late Sunday evening (basically making a week of it). Flights in total were £94 each (including return) so can't complain at that. Ideally you want to fly to Stockholm Arlanda not Skavsta, as the latter leaves you just over an hour away by train, and you'll have to get the bus first to get to the station. From Arlanda you can jump straight on a train half hour away from the city centre.
BoyJones Posted 24 April 2016 Posted 24 April 2016 I really wanted to do this. It all looked like it tied up nicely. The wife even gave the ok. Although she did want to fly out with us but not do the football. However the more I think about it. It's 4 days before a potential community shield. How strong a side are either us or barca for that matter going to put out. And the wife has pointed out if we are gonna have 3 of the real deal in Europe do I risk not being able to do those? Really envy anyone able to go and wish money and time was no object. But I guess I'm going to have to save myself for once the draw for the group phase is done and plan some trips then. It's all fell lucky for me. Retire on 23rd June, referendum day. Sold the house, moving into a flat, so will have a few quid left over. Never played golf, but my wife wishes I had as she reckons a golf widow is better than a football widow, as I will be going everywhere watching the city literally til I die!
B_Fox Posted 25 April 2016 Posted 25 April 2016 Even if you were reluctant I'd have a bit more sympathy. But £50 a ticket for a friendly taking place four days after a match in Los Angeles (5,500 miles) and four days before a potential Community Shield at Wembley is a bit steep isn't it? Of course it's the Barcelona factor, and the "International Champions Cup," but drill it down and it's still a friendly. Amazed at the "shut up and take my money" attitude. It's Leicester against Barcelona, in Stockholm, for god's sake. Last year we had Mansfield and Rotherham away. £50 is steep but you pay whatever to be there, we don't get many opportunities like this... Got mine at the back of the first tier behind the goal
BoyJones Posted 25 April 2016 Posted 25 April 2016 Looks like the tuesday 06.40 flight from Gatwick may be a football special then Just booked two seats on this flight. Coming back Thursday evening.

Last year we had Mansfield and Rotherham away. £50 is steep but you pay whatever to be there, we don't get many opportunities like this... Got mine at the back of the first tier behind the goal We have a few opportunities like this next season. If it was either a competitive match, or on a weekend, or at the Camp Nou, I'd be there like a shot. This one doesn't appeal to me personally.

GaelicFox Posted 25 April 2016 Posted 25 April 2016 I have three mates back on Sunday's evening All paid for I points out the community shield issue Now they are trying to get home Saturday
Mapperleyfox Posted 25 April 2016 Posted 25 April 2016 Flying to Stockholm on the Tuesday, then Thursday morning getting the train to Oslo (about 5 hours), then flying back from Oslo Friday evening. Really looking forward to it. Ticket wise we'll blag one on the day while we're there.
Frost Posted 26 April 2016 Posted 26 April 2016 You going to miss the charity shield then? Absolutely buggered that haven't I? Genuinely didn't cross my mind at the time, got far too carried away. **** sake.
CosbehFox Posted 27 April 2016 Posted 27 April 2016 What's going on with Celtic? Part of me thinks that there is no way they will allow those tickets to go on open sale with the risk of trouble.
red5 Posted 27 April 2016 Posted 27 April 2016 Absolutely buggered that haven't I? Genuinely didn't cross my mind at the time, got far too carried away. **** sake. Can you get a flight back Saturday? I'm not going Sweden as don't want to miss Wemberly.
brisfox Posted 11 May 2016 Posted 11 May 2016 Just phoned the Celtic box office. They have no news on tickets for the Leicester game
Foxes1 Posted 12 May 2016 Posted 12 May 2016 See Millington Travel are looking at running a trip to the Barcelona game according to facebook
Balj Posted 16 May 2016 Posted 16 May 2016 Got bored at work and found myself buying tickets for me and my son to go to the Barca game! Flying from Bham via Copenhagen - hope to see some of you there. It's still ridiculous and absurd and crazy - we are the champions!
chrisawhitmore Posted 16 May 2016 Posted 16 May 2016 Got my tickets for Barca in stockholm, flights are booked, see you all there!

Lcfc_lass10 Posted 21 May 2016 Posted 21 May 2016 Hope they organise travel as well. At the minute £20 on Ausden Clark. According to Jim on Thursday he told me £35 on foxes travel.
Bayfox Posted 21 May 2016 Posted 21 May 2016 When will this be? That bit I don't know. I can try to find out. But I'd book the ausden Clark at 20 notes. 40 quid for Glasgow away isn't bad.
oohaahmustafa Posted 22 May 2016 Posted 22 May 2016 Tbf that is great value but a coach to Glasgow sounds like absolute torture! Tbf that is great value but a coach to Glasgow sounds like absolute torture!
