Cheers. Will have a look at going to Graz so. Was in Salzburg before, lovely spot, would recommend it to anybody thinking of spending a bit of time in Austria for that week.

I was expecting Salzburg to be very expensive but found it reasonable. No worse than here but as Salzburglily posted you wont regret visiting it. The view from the castle over it is something else.

Yep. Depends on what you're after in a bar but I can recommend some for you.
Incidentally, I was talking to a guy last night who is the business manager for one of the first division teams here and has lots of contacts within the association here and he was adamant that the game will be played in Vienna.

So seeing as the Austrian F.A were waiting to see if they still had a chance of qualifying at the end of March before deciding on a venue for this game, i think the fact that Sweden have dropped points and even if we beat them on Tuesday they will still feel they have a chance for 2nd, so i reckon this game will almost certainly be in Vienna!

I'd say it will be Vienna, If they played Faroes in Vienna they will play us there IMO
|

If we win on Tuesday, we will send a really good crowd to this. Three points over the Faroes in June and the playoffs will look really possible, so Vienna would hopefully be the venue, and we won't have any great ticket difficulties.

Cheers Fritz. Most of the lads/lassies haven't booked flights yet as we are waiting to see where the Austrian FA decide to play the game. What are the chances of the game not being played in Vienna?

Was considering doing something like this myself. Budapest is a serious spot but I've already been there so don't know whether to venture to Prague..or just stay in Vienna a few nights.
Anyone know what the midweek nightlife is like in Vienna? |
Myself and a mate stayed in Vienna back in 2008 a few days after the match in Bratislava. It was very quiet at night although I think it was midweek or early in the week as we were heading to Prague for the Czech game after Vienna. Only place we could find what we would call a pub turned out to be a paddy pub full of pissed up Austrians playing table quiz. Good laugh though.
If you've not done Prague then certainly do it. There is a night train between Prague and Vienna where you can book a bed in a cabin. We did that going in the other direction in 2008...the train was continuing on to Moscow and we jumped off at Prague

There's a 19:55 from Dublin to Budapest with Ryanair on Sunday evening. With a 3:30 throw in, and Croker being a twenty minute taxi ride from the airport, you'd be grand. I mean, you really only need to be jumping in a taxi at 18:00 from Quinns (18:30 at a push). Not saying it would be ideal, granted, but it could be done, especially if you want to be in Vienna for Monday night. It would probably ruin your enjoyment of the final, though, and you'd need to bring your bags with you or else leave them somewhere nearby (the Croke Park Hotel might well hold it for you if you ask nicely).
You could try the aer lingus to Prague on Monday morning but you wouldn't get to Vienna til about 23:00 (four hour train) or the flight to Budapest, but it arrives so late you would either be leaving yourself with a tight connection (1:45 to get from the scheduled landing time to the train station) or else having to head up on the Tuesday.

Yeah will take the budapest sunday or bratislava monday flight, as for the game, I go with the family so not a big drinking affair and dads work has an office in fairview 10 mins walk from croker so thatd be handy for the budapest flight, just wouldnt be mad keen getting in there that later, will be there one way or another if ive not emigrated, cheers SD

Yeah, I didn't mention the Monday Bratislava flight. It's very early and I had been guessing that you would be drinking Sunday night.... it's a 06:50 flight and it is €118 one way. If you aren't drinking that much on Sunday then the early flight isn't that big an issue. If you don't want to leave on Sunday evening, don't mind the early start and want to spend Monday night in Vienna, it is the best option. It's a little pricier than the other options but I suppose it does exactly what you want it to do.

For the history buffs going to Vienna I posted an interesting article in the history thread about the year 1913 in Vienna. A year when Hitler, Trotsky, Tito, Freud and Stalin all lived in the same place. Might do a tour of the auld haunts in anyone else is up for it. http://www.ybig.ie/forum/topic19344_post1188876.html#1188876" rel="nofollow - http://www.ybig.ie/forum/topic19344_post1188876.html#1188876

Monday to Wednesday - arriving about half six Monday evening, leaving about half eleven on morning. Based on the flight prices alone, the Monday flight is currently fuller than the Tuesday flight - the prices would indicate as much.
Tbh, there may even be a few there over the weekend - I know we are spending a couple of nights in Prague from Saturday to Monday.

In Pargue on Sunday; what would be the best pub to watch the all-Ireland Hurling final in SD84? After last sunday expecting the Dubs to be in it. According to the Hotel website I'm a leisurely stroll from Prague Castle.
Some beers,travel scrabble, eye spy and a few chorus' of 'The Boys from The County Hell' should see us arrive on the rattler into Vienna on Monday afternoon.

Oh, you're in Prague too.... cool. I'm sure we'll find a pub showing the game. If not, we can always find somewhere with free wifi and stream it.
Incidentally, I think the best train to get down is the 13:39 (that's the one I'm planning on anyway). The earlier one is at 10:39 (which seems too early for my liking) and although the next one is 14:39, I'd rather get into Vienna at half six than half seven. Booking will open on the 11th or 12th July on www.cd.cz, and it is much cheaper to book in advance.

Email them telling them you want to apply for tickets for the Austria game and they should issue you with a username and password.
Failing that I wouldn't worry about tickets for this game, will be plenty floating about for our end the day of the game. Always are.

As far as I'm aware we have a 10% allocation for this game therefore 5k tickets. Bar Poland & the Paris play off we have not had anywhere near 5k at any of the away games in the past two campaigns. Be doing well to bring 2,500 to Vienna IMO so tickets won't be an issue. If you don't get sorted by the FAI lots of spares will be about night before, day of the game or at the team hotel. As for your mate applying through the FAI I don't think that will be a problem either.
