It is, and its scary some of the prices mentioned. but I got flights for €46 return and four nites accomm for about 80. So thinking that 125€ for all that is worth the trade off of it being expensive for the four days. Plus i really wanted to visit Copenhagen and get to see it properly. The dream draw all round!

On the Friday, try DUB-POZ-MMX. Still reasonable.

Anyone booked on the Sunday morning return flight from Hamburg? 7 of us booked looking to see if anyone is running a bus or can organise one. Would probably have to leave Copenhagen at 3am after the game Confused

Let me know if you need tips on Copenhagen. I am a native Smile

Direct flights to Dublin is really cheap - isn't it the same the other way around? I see people are talking about stopovers in Hamburg etc.

That's a decent price. Free beer with Austrian as well, I imagine.



Always Clap Beer

Might pick up a bottle of Rum in duty free,chatting to my mate there,she works for the UN in Copenhagen ,said pints are about 8€ but cans are reasonable enough.

Took a gamble on booking Dublin - Copenhagen direct from Friday to Sunday after the draw before the date was confirmed. Had it open on Skyscanner through a third party at €200, had twenty minutes to pay, checked on the SAS website and it had already gone up to €600 by then so bought it. Been waiting for them to cancel but just had confirmation that tickets are secured and the booking is up on the SAS site when I put the details in so job looks a good un!

Have it booked for me and the old man via gatwick on the Friday and Malmo-Stockholm Dublin on Monday for 180 each. Prices all rocketed up very quick so that wasn't too bad. Accommodation sorted too, now just to worry about tickets....
No thank you Turkish......I'm sweet enough

But it goes onto a ferry for an hour in the middle and you get off and up onto the ferry.

That sounds mad. I was almost tempted to book to go that way because of it.


make sure and stock up in hamburg that ferry is one of the most expensive ive ever been on

went via hamburg when celtic played copenhagen in the CL a few years back 

its a sh*t journey

Yeah, absolutely.

If I'd been more confident in the dates, I'd have booked a Friday flight out, not a Thursday one.

If you're not booked yet, given the cost of accommodation etc, even sharing a room, I'd pay an extra €75 for a Friday flight over a Thursday one, and the same for a Sunday flight back as opposed to a Monday one (depending on flight times).

I was tempted to look at Thursday flights, but just bit the bullet and booked via Oslo on the Fruday for 150, arrive Friday at 4.20pm, flight out at 10.45. 

The extra day spending money, feeling sh*t for too much drink etc etc I reckon Friday Sunday was the correct decision

I've used them a few times before and have never had any problems. Should be fine. Just need to give your details to them a bit earlier so they can check you in but they'll email you about that

Cheers Mads. Normally I'm sure direct flights are relatively cheap but as soon as this fixture was announced you can be sure the airline companies ramped their prices up - hence trying to figure out alternative routes into Copenhagen!
