PCW1983 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Moscow gonna be way too expensive like Absolutely mental the cost. Think the Visa price really tips it over the edge. We've came to that conclusion too unfortunately :-/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 £200 flights are more than reasonable like. That's going on the Wednesday from London to Moscow via Zurich. Nice 10 hour stop in Zurich to catch a glimpse of somewhere different. Come back on the Friday evening, I think I'll book this on Monday when I get paid. Quick research looks like a visa costs around £120! Might be more to get it fast tracked aswell though. According to .com the visa is £77 for a 7 day turnaround or £127 for next day and can be obtained from the consulate in either London or Edinburgh. That's not too bad then. £277 quid plus hotel, it's going to cost little over £300 overall. Just as cheap as any of the others despite the distance. Hotel will cost you almost the same as the flight.

ponsaelius Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Hotels in Moscow are a fortune, and the general cost when you're there for food and drink will be about 4 times as much as in Kharkiv. Going through calculations we reckon it'll cost about twice as much overall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All capital cities are expensive so don't expect it to be much different to London in food and drink prices. Only there for the Thursday and half day Friday so shouldn't be spending ridiculous amounts. Although if the flights have went up by Monday I'll not be bothering with it anymore.

ponsaelius Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Flights - £161 Visa - £77 Coach to Heathrow - £50 Hostel - £40 Match ticket - £15 (?) Spending money - £100 Rough estimate I reckon I could do it for around £450, minus whatever I could flog Stoke home ticket for. Would be a stretch but reckon I could scrape it together, problem is unless mates can scrape together similar cash I'd be doing it on my bill. Still think it'd be too expensive.

Aye, I'm looking at coming back on the Friday really like. Don't know whether it's going to be worth spending all this cash like, might just pray we get through to the quarters.
