Toulouse Travel Thread : Wed Dec 03, 2008 11:41 am  
Right then I may as well be the first to get this ball rolling, anybody made any plans or bookings as of yet?
Obviously at the minuter, most of us just weighing our options up. Checked sky scanner and expedia etc, and all direct flights are pretty costly. I am pretty keen on flying with bmi from Manchester to Bordeux (spelling?) and then catching a train or national express type coach. Only about 140 miles from there on to Toulouse.
Also Ryanair fly to Carcessone and that is even closer at 61 miles, but not 100% sure of getting from here to Toulouse.
Anybody know what they are doing yet?

PS Perhaps it wouldn't be a bad idea if this thread was a sticky for a little while? :wink:

I've not found any flights to elsewhere in France that are any cheaper than the direct BMI Baby ones to Toulouse?

Matt, have gander at Ryanair from John Lennon to Carcassone. If you include a train or bus ride from there into Toulouse then yer right it may work out cheaper. :? Big pain the rear end this trip, should imagine it will be worth it though eventually.
This flight from Manchester mate?

Still weighing it up at the moment. I've had a look at the BMI flights and they seem fairly reasonable.

Was wondering if there might be any kind of an organised package deal?

Probably won't book for a while yet until I know what's happening... if it's on the tv then everyone will be screwed that book the flights for the friday.

I have heard somebody say the club may charter a plane but tbh I'd rather not wait around for that. Want to try and get it sorted our between now and the end of Janruary. I can't imagine the club announcing anything until the season starts. Think I may now have a gander at these BMI flights. 8)

BMI Baby fly direct from Manchester to Toulouse.

Ours are £183 return (Friday-Sunday) but we play them when the kids are on Easter holidays; the following week the same flights cost £80 :twisted:

Looks like we're at the start of the Summer Holidays so we'll have a similar problem pricewise. :cry:

Beware the fireman strikes at the airport!!

When we went for the Cup game a few years ago we were welcomed to all flights cancelled on the way home. Thus a 6 hour delay and bus journey to Bordeaux for flight home.

We flew from Gatwick direct to Toulose with easyjet. Had 5 of us in the car so shared petrol and the thoughts were it's easier for us to travel in England where we speak the lingo than trying to travel across Southern France.

Not decided on whether we'll be going this year, all depends on finances and whether I can stay gainfully employed!
