adejo92 884 Posted 5 October Report Share Posted 5 October I haven't seen a dedicated thread hence creation. Its a shame there's not the same hype around travelling as the Covid Free Champions League adventure but that said, who's going? Anyone booked yet or thinking of booking? Anyone know if many people are going? Looking at 3 nights myself however there hasn't been the usual steep hike of flight prices like with the Champions League which would say there hasn't been the demand and web traffic there previously has been.

The restrictions in Greece look very tight. No more than 4 on a table in doors, no gatherings of more than 7 anywhere. Face masks compulsory at all times. I was contemplating it until I saw that and then I binned it. I'm sure people will still have a good time but I reckon there's going to be a lot of fines handed out to our lads 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RonnieTodger 3,234 Posted 5 October Report Share Posted 5 October There's also random covid testing upon arrival and if positive, you have to isolate for 14 days in Greece Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TamworthFoxes 228 Posted 6 October Report Share Posted 6 October Looking like Greece will be added to the quarantine list this Thursday. Only paid £35 for my flight so won’t be to much out of pocket. Can cancel digs up until the day before. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My initial plan was to book tickets whilst they were cheap enough not to worry about having to cancel - Like you say, £35 is nothing should you have to cancel it. I thought long and hard, and the rest of my friends are going, however i had a word with my less selfish self and couldn't justify the risks of travel & Quarantine due to having a little one. It's a real shame this year but hopefully Europa will be an annual target for the club now. I don't want to come across as entitled but looking at our squad, not getting into Europa every year would be a major disappointment. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They abide by the rules except face coverings everywhere, people are relatively sensible with that. Its nowhere near as restrictive as it sounds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly don’t it’ll be shit. Covid restrictions, can’t go the game, can’t gather in crowds, risk of cancellation, risk of being forced to quarantine either side. Literally everything fun about a European away day stripped out. ****ing barmy if you ask me. Edited 7 October by Manwell Pablo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Depends where you go mate. I know that Rhodes and Kos are pretty hot still. 26 degrees today, but I think the likes of Corfu cool down at this time of year. i think the latter is true, no idea how Leicester fans would bag a ticket, but I bet someone will Quote Link to post Share on other sites
