Travel/Tickets: USA versus Denmark in Århus, Denmark (11/18/2009)

wait, Ryanair flys from NY? I'm looking for anyone seeking to travel from the UK if you're up for it I'd like to hook up.

 

Hey MJ - Just replied to your post on my "wall". I'd love to do this, but the midweek thing makes it tough for me. Perhaps we could hook up for the Nov 14th friendly if they announce it soon. If not, for sure the next (weekend) friendly in Europe. Netherlands next Spring?

I've got a friend from California coming over on the 31st and I've got tickets for Fulham v Liverpool that afternoon, so I've probably used my football pass from the wife for now, but would love to be a part of a group from the UK or Europe (or from wherever!) that go to matches over here.

 

Wait, a flight from NYC to Denmark is 16$ ?

 

i have been thinking about this one but it might tough for the midweek before thanksgiving. i find ryanair to be a bit dodgy usually, well completely dodgy to be honest. i know they were looking at starting US flights but i dont see this cheap fare anywhere?
been looking at more traditional airlines and the prices arent really favorable.

 

Hmmm...gotta look into this one. Turns out there is no work that week for me.

 

I have not seen lights from NYC to Denmark or anything under $900 or so....anyone?

 

A few of us are planning on driving up from Berlin. Still working out the details but see you then!

 

Grace Kim from US soccer sent me an email today saying there working on getting tickets for US fans going to Denmark for this match....My birthdays the same week...That will be a nice way to celebrate..lol

Is the Radisson in Arhus? How much is it a night to stay there?

 

seeing about $800 to go into London and then Ryanair onto Arhus....but i havent been able to find the ultra-cheap fares yet that Haifa did....its looking unlikely for me to make this trip unless prices change or i find an excuse to get to europe the weekend before....

 

I think this is definitely the way to do it. Or fly to Amsterdam and drive up. Even flying to Århaus from as nearby as Berlin is over 200 Euros.

Stateside, someone told me about Megabus which drives up to New York for like 10 bucks a passenger. Then you could probably find cheaper flights to Europe from there.

 

Ok Pal, I'm finished in Bath now and in between gigs so a bit easier for me. I'll hold back though for the Nov 14th friendly to see if it's around.

I hear ya on the UK group thing, we ought to start one (does one exist already? ...anyone...anyone). I think it would be great to meet up for the flight/ferry over and stuff - road trip.

 

FIFA is listing Bratislava for a Slovakia friendly.... http://www.fifa.com/associations/association=usa/fixturesresults/gender=m/index.html#
