None really. Just that it is a genuine flight/hotel if you choose air travel for example.With regards to the Travel Report, what information can the club check that you have submitted?

South end I believe.Anyone know what end United will have in the stadium?
All right, thanks. Got tickets at the other endSouth end I believe.
I tried. They flat out said 'we're not doing any moves for the next couple of seasons as we're working on the new changes in the stadium'. If you're on the Stretty you wana switch with me?Anyone tried to move their season tickets about for next year? Are the club entertaining moves at this point or refusing to engage, given the mandatory reallocation for some?
I just want to move to a slightly better seat in the same stand - but good try!I tried. They flat out said 'we're not doing any moves for the next couple of seasons as we're working on the new changes in the stadium'. If you're on the Stretty you wana switch with me?
not being sarky here but if you look at the stadium maps online we are on the right hand side as you look at it. Don't know whether thats NSE or W. We are in blocks 202, 302 - a stadium map will show you which endAnyone know what end United will have in the stadium?
Yeah, that's what I thought. I'm at the other end but feck it; I'm going to the Europa League final!not being sarky here but if you look at the stadium maps online we are on the right hand side as you look at it.

if past experience is anything to go by there'll be united fans throughout the ground. lots of neutral seats will have been sold on or 'passed to friends' ahem.Yeah, that's what I thought. I'm at the other end but feck it; I'm going to the Europa League final!
You do indeedPair of Southampton away available for £20 a piece.
Would prefer to sell to someone who could help with aways in future but PM me anyway if you're interested.
Edit: @MkPaul I think I owe you a favour if you want them.
Lost my contacts mate so PM me your number and I will do next time.You do indeed
Sorry mate, I already had tickets for the Southampton game. I think you have my # so text me in future and i'll reply much quicker!
Not sure if it helps, but I'm flying to Gothenburg then catching the 3/4 hour train to Stockholm.It pains me to have to do this but I have two tickets for Wednesday and haven't been able to find an affordable route to Stockholm. If you can get there or already have flights and accommodation but no ticket send me a DM.
You definite on that about loads of returns? If so I will be buying one in the next hour.It's sad how many people cannot get there without throwing serious money at the problem. There's apparently been thousands of tickets returned and I know someone who bought two tickets for the final for £80 at Old Trafford yesterday.
Not definite, but going off what has been reported anecdotally both here and talking to those who are generally savvy on getting away tickets.You definite on that about loads of returns? If so I will be buying one in the next hour.
I emailed them about a week ago when I heard about the returns, they got back to me saying:You definite on that about loads of returns? If so I will be buying one in the next hour.
Nice one, so not 'thousands of returns' thenI emailed them about a week ago when I heard about the returns, they got back to me saying:
"Thank you for your email.
We did received a very small allocation of tickets for the game that had been returned to us but these have now been sold. These tickets were allocated by outbound call only to supporters who were originally not eligible to apply.
The supporters contacted were Season Ticket holders who have purchased 11 of 12 home cup games and applied for at least 1 European away game this season and so on, in order of the most home games purchased and European away games applied for.
If we receive any further returned allocation of tickets then we will only communicate out to supporters who have applied for at least 1 European away game this season via an outbound basis.
If you require any further assistance then please do not hesitate to get back in contact with ourselves or by calling the ticket office on 0161 868 8000 and select option 1 followed by option 3 on the telephone options."
I'm sure that there have been a few (hundred or so) in the last week simply because people are not interested in forking out for travel.Nice one, so not 'thousands of returns' then

Nothing to lose by giving them a call though mate just to be sure.
Appreciate it pal but no joy. Flights to GOT from Dublin are just under 600 and there is no train that would get me back for the return flight. I feel like I have literally looked at every possible option. Had hoped to find a route by flying into UK airport and getting connecting flights but now flights back to Dublin from U.K. On the 25th are €300. Absolute joke.Not sure if it helps, but I'm flying to Gothenburg then catching the 3/4 hour train to Stockholm.
Tried going directly to Stockholm but the prices this late on are ridiculous as I'm sure you'll know.
Would like to know more about this as well, I will be in a neutral zone close to the Ajax fans.Was lucky enough to get two tickets in the open ballot held by Uefa, was still the 1/4 stage of the competition at the time but went for it. So excited for it now.
Having not been to a major final before, I wondered what the more experienced European travellers thoughts were on:
Any other advice for both keeping safe, and making the most of the trip?
- Wearing United colours in the neutral section of the stadium
- Do we know what end/section of the ground is allocated for United? Would be great if our seats are close by
- Will we be able to access the Man Utd fan zone on the day of the match? Or is access to the fan zones limited to those with tickets in the relevant sections of the ground, leaving us with the 'neutral zone'
On travel, because we were lucky enough to get the tickets a couple of months ago, we decided that we would go to the final regardless of who ended up playing, and make a few days of it, so were able to get cheap flights and accommodation at the time.
Thanks all.
On the Man Utd fan zone - I've seen nothing to suggest the area is restricted to fans with tickets for the specific United section of the stadium (or indeed a ticket at all).Would like to know more about this as well, I will be in a neutral zone close to the Ajax fans.
All right, thanks! Do you know where these fan zones are located or where I can find information about that?On the Man Utd fan zone - I've seen nothing to suggest the area is restricted to fans with tickets for the specific United section of the stadium (or indeed a ticket at all).
On visibly being a United fan in the neutral section - Unless the ticket expressly says 'no club colours' (like Club Wembley) I don't imagine there will be a problem. Of course you could be unlucky and surrounded by Ajax fans.
MUFC fan area is RorstrandsgatanAll right, thanks! Do you know where these fan zones are located or where I can find information about that?
A dedicated MUFC pedestrianised fan area will be at Rörstrandsgatan in the centre of Stockholm, where there will be a number of bars and restaurants available just to Manchester United supporters. We advise you to remain in this area on Wednesday.All right, thanks! Do you know where these fan zones are located or where I can find information about that?

That's impossible, it's an important street in Stockholm and can't just be completely closed off. Big church there, commuter train station there etc.is this area only for fans who bought tickets through the club?

The Manchester United Fan Zone will be located at Rörstrandsgatan. The zone will be open from Wednesday lunchtime until the match starts. The best way to get to Friends Arena from the Fan Zone is by commuter train from Karlberg station. You should be aware that drinking alcohol in public places is forbidden in Sweden at all times. You will be allowed to drink alcohol inside the Fan Zone, but not outside.
