Wouldn't worry too much about that another few weeks the Mediterranean countries will be pushing for EU travel to save their tourism season. I'd be confident we will be in Luxembourg so much so I booked my flights the other day. 
More confident of this now..

1,000 (a guess) of us in Luxembourg on a cold Sunday night in November..... can't wait

Portugal will be good to go as soon as the Irish government allows. It’s one of the lowest infection rates in the EU, among other factors. It’s more what the Portuguese will do with a crowd.

Looks like end of June being pencilled in for international travel by the Irish government atm. Hope they're not going to insist on people having full tests even from 'safe' countries regardless of vaccination status as the British government seems to be planning on doing (for arrival in the UK). 

And hopefully the Portuguese will give us plenty of notice if we can go.

They sell a quare drink at their games in Luxembourg. It's kinda like half lager half coke mixed together. Couldn't get my head around it.

A few weeks ago I'd have said might be too soon, but could be just the right time. Portugal seem to be ploughing on with reopening and then it'll be a question of travel from here. Hopeful

I was introduced to something similar by the Belgium fans in Bordeaux during Euro 2016. So offended by French beer, they were putting a coke head on their beers, and fair play, it wasn't as bad as I had assumed.

€450 for flights with a transfer through Istanbul, other options can be got for about 350, had looked at going for Europa final in 2019 and nothing could be got for less than 1100

Ya that's the prices I've seen. Hopefully more routes open up in the months ahead.

I would be a bit wary of anything outside of the EU but pretty hopeful for Portugal now at least out of Uk
