Travel details for upcoming games:- 

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE AWAY v PSG

​​​​

​​PSG v Man City –  Wed 22 January 2025 KO 9pm (local time).

I am currently looking into the POSSIBILITY of running a single decker coach to this game over a 3 day trip.

Itinerary will look something like this :-

Coach leaves pick up point around Midnight on Mon 20 Jan/Tues 21 January and travels overnight to the Channel Tunnel.

Early morning Tunnel to France, then arrive in Paris early afternoon on Tues 21 Jan.

Afternoon & evening free time to do what you wish.  Metro station close by offering transport to centre of Paris.

Stay overnight in a local hotel - I am looking at an IBIS which is apparently 2 stops from the PSG stadium on the local metro.

Wed am 22 Jan - day of the game.  Check out of the hotel mid morning then leave bags back on the coach.

Coach will then either stay at the hotel or travel to the ground.  Unsure at this time.

After the game, we will either jump back on the coach at the ground or get the metro back to the hotel and jump back on the coach there.  Coach will then travel overnight back to the UK via the Tunnel and be back in Manchester early afternoon on Thursday 23 Jan depending on what time we get the Tunnel train. 

Costs currently being finalised and I await hotel prices.

The total cost  is estimated at being no more than £250-275 per person.  Obviously the more people we get, the cheaper it will be.  Again, if you share a twin room it will be cheaper than a single room.    

I am looking for people to register interest and numbers with me asap as we will need to move quickly to secure the hotel rooms and Tunnel booking.

Deposits of £75-100 per person will be required at the time of booking and are NON REFUNDABLE.

​​​​

NOTE NO REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN IN THE EVENT THAT YOU CANNOT MAKE IT UNLESS WE CAN RE SELL THE PLACE AND HOTEL ROOM ELSEWHERE. PAYMENT MUST BE MADE AT THE TIME OF YOUR BOOKING.  

To register interest and book a seat please text John Morgan on 07970 436920 or e-mail travel@mancityosc.co.uk.  If I don't answer the mobile just leave a message and I will come back to you as soon as I can. 

My regular passengers will be given priority booking initially.

NOTE THAT GOING FORWARD IT IS LOOKING LESS LIKELY THAT WE ARE GOING TO BE ABLE TO USE THE STADIUM FOR A PICKUP, IT WOULD APPEAR CITY/COUNCIL NO LONGER WANT US THERE AND ARE SEEMINGKY SET TO REFUSE TO ALLOW US TO USE THE CAR PARKS.  FAR FROM IDEAL, I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS BUT IT SEEMS WE HAVE NO OPTION.  WE CAN DISCUSS FURTHER ON THE WAY TO NEWCASTLE BUT IF ANYONE HAS ANY SUGGESTIONS RE AN ALTERNATIVE PICK UP POINT WITH PARKING  INSTEAD OF THE STADIUM, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
