TheGuv Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Regardless though driving to Hull will be quicker than any other option from Amsterdam? I don't know how long a drive Hull is, but was just throwing it out there for those that might fancy combining the trip with a visit to Amsterdam. Ah right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger Kint Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Regardless though driving to Hull will be quicker than any other option from Amsterdam? Think the ferry trips are similar times so yeah i would agree. Its what? 2.5 hours by car to Hull? Definately be quicker. Direct train Newcastle to Brugge is fastest way.

Ketsbaia Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 So everyone's booking before we hear anything about tickets? I already feel like I've missed out on good prices but because I don't have a season ticket there's too much uncertainty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to check on Monday about possibility of time off work first (didn't have the chance on Friday ) Blatantly going to cost a fortune though!

Few lads have paid £216 Eurostar with two nights in Brugge. Some deal with Westoe Travel, not bad at all that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to clarify, the reason the security fella threatened to have me arrested was because I was wearing a Newcastle shirt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Maybe there should be a new thread for travel plans, leaving this one for just the football. By being sensible and waiting for more info, the price is skyrocketing. Hopefully there can be at least 6k tickets for Brugge though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Just been investigating the Maritimo trip and the only way to get there now is by Cruise ship or plane. Ferries have stop going there now apparently, how strange. Also landing on one the worlds most dangerous runways is not a comforting thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 my mam and dad went to Madeira a few years ago. They were in their early 50's and reckoned they were some of the youngest tourists there by about 10 years . They said holiday-wise its rammed with old people so not sure what the pre and post-match drinking atmosphere will be like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevo Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I'm booked up for Brugge. Ferry to Amsterdam return 70 quid, train to Brugge runs every 30 minutes, hotel for 26 quid 1.5 mile from the ground. Train single is 40 euro so I guess a return will be about 60 euro. So looking at around 130-150. Booking Bordeaux within the next few weeks. Can't wait! Edit: main reason for avoiding hull is my old man doesn't like the sound of having to drive home from hull, much more convenient being in the north east. Only an extra couple of hours onto the journey going via Amsterdam. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggybread Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 160 Eurostar to Brussels From Newcastle one night in Brussels one night in Bruges home on the friday probs could have shaved 15 quid off that with slightly cheaper hotel In bruge but happy with that.

Can i get a season ticket holder to buy tickets for me or do they need to see travel bookings etc? No you have to download or get a form from ticket office, and the season ticket name needs to match the name on the passport/travel documents. Or at least thats how it used to work iirc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magpie Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Apparently Birmingham took 10,000 to Brugge last year, 5,600 in the ground and 5,000 outside. Hope for the same. Imagine we'll take similar numbers over aswell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
