Think it's done through Ticketmaster now
Yes, the account is managed through Ticketmaster and you can log in using your Ticketmaster account but I didn't think it allocated you an FAI customer number (could be wrong on that).

If you've not had one before, an FAI account number would be allocated once you sign up through the FAI Ticketmaster portal and is available to view in the account overview

Rightly so. Why should a fan get a ticket ahead of Johnny cokehead 🤔

In fairness to the bag merchants they still bothered their hole to get on a flight to Athens.

Personally think the Season Ticket should really count towards your record if you're coming to home games from outside Dublin, but sure that'd be too difficult to enforce.

So you'd be punishing people for living in Dublin????
Would be some amount of people getting tickets delivered to friends and cousins down the country or abroad!

If you have more than one kids you should get bonus points for away games. If you have an elderly parent you should also get bonus points and if you get the home care package you should get a further bonus points.  The fai away scheme should basically be run like the dept of social welfare.

1: Yes. That way each person has their own personal record, it saves any issues in the future that tickets may be scarce for if each person has their own account and record of aways. 

2: Yes. Really no need for any grown up to be piggybacking on someone else’s account. It also has the added little benefit that each individual will receive the pre sales email links etc instead of relying on the main account holder.

Hi I'm trying to set up away portal accounts for me and 3 others and I have a few questions.

1. Is it better for us all to set up individual portal accounts and apply for 1 ticket each separately on our accounts or should I set up 4 profiles on the one Portal account?

2. We have 4 season tickets but they are all under one email. Is it possible to transfer the season tickets so that we each have one on our own emails?

Thanks.

Nation's league is an ideal opportunity to get on the away day ladder.
time is the stuff that life is made of, don't waste it.

Nobody can say for sure if we'll sell out our allocation but on the face of it this game is the most likely of our remaining fixtures to be be oversubscribed. In that instance you (with no previous away games) would not get a ticket.

Depends on how much they give us really, some games don’t over subscribe when you think they will. I wouldn’t throw in the towel that easily. 

It’ll be a popular one, especially if were still in with a chance of qualifying which does seem unlikely.

A word of advice would be to build up your record in games with less demand, for example Gibraltar in Faro is a great opportunity 

Also, it’d be worth setting up your away portal account asap as it seems to take a while for it to setup 

Cheers pal. I've my account set up on the away portal and was actually thinking of going to the Gibraltar game anyway (work permitting!).

In recent years it was indeed season ticket & x amount of away games being the criteria.

I think since covid if I'm not mistaken it's been just x amount of away games.

Luxembourg email did mention season ticket plus aways
