I got my return flights for 40 notes so im not overly fussed either way. Ill happily choo choo it..

Ryanair have return flights to Cardiff up now at €220. Might be worth it for lads who don't want any additional travel to other airports and the times are good. Out Sunday or Monday and back Tuesday.

Yep i would be of that thinking also. Flybe direct are €300 return with a 7am departure time so Ryanair a very welcome addition at this stage. They will go up quite a bit closer the time.

Plus €79 aiport tax.

Even with those Ryanair flights if you managed to get your hotel booked anyway early you should have yourself a one night stay and direct flights for less than €300.

Don't expect train fares to be expensive either when they are uploaded in summer (already signed up for the e-mail alert on thetrainline.com).

not really, guaranteed match ticket, don't forget they have to actually make money, as it's their prime reason for doing what they do

€480 is maybe fine for a day trip to the Faroes when there aren't a heap of realistic alternative options.

€480 for a day trip to Cardiff is madness in comparison, when there are much cheaper options of getting there with minimal extra inconvenience for a massive price difference. I suppose the one benefit over the alternatives is the fact you will be back for work on Tuesday morning.

They are gouging, simply on the guarantee of match tickets. Without those, it would make no sense whatsoever to book the trip with Abbey. Match tickets are not included in that price. Ryanair, hardly bastions of pricing restraint, are charging €220 for direct prices. Now, while that isn't a day return, and while accommodation is a bit pricey, there's no way access to a match ticket is worth paying €260 at this stage.

That is, frankly, a crazy price. You would have to be crazy to pay it. Also, if you wanted to go overnight, you'd go for Sunday night as well. I can't see much demand for a trip that is just Monday night. I'm kind of surprised they aren't running a two night trip and a one night trip, rather than a one night trip and a day trip, especially with accommodation being the way it is.

Only catch is that there's only 10 places per sailing available at that price, but I just checked there and there's plenty of routes on the Saturday and Sunday from Dublin to Holyhead for 2 euro and a few on the Tuesday and Wednesday for the same

Does that include match ticket?
