All ticket/travel information thread - 2024-25 edition - Ticket Purchasing FAQ in OP. Please read it and be careful purchasing tickets

Those of you that have little to no chance of going to Bilbao, where are you watching the match in Manchester?

Think the club are missing a trick by not opening the Stretford End and putting a massive screen on the pitch. That would be mint.

I just saw on FB, there was a post from themanc.com that there's going to be a fanzone somewhere

I’ve seen that they’re doing something at the AO Arena but can’t help but think it will be a bit plastic. Not sure if that’s the same one.

I'm not sure as I didn't click the link. I agree that the AO will likely be a bit too forced and plastic.

I don't think United will open up a stand with a screen, as it'll mean they'll have to hire security/police/ambulance etc.
 
Managed to bag some tickets in the ballot despite some horrible luck this season. £1.5k return flights... Staying in a studio flat 30km NE of Bilbao in Bermeo if anyone is close by for a few drinks let me know.

Got one in the ballot also. Looking like a Sport break 24 hour trip for me

Bizarre amount of people I know successfull in ballot. Loads of people didn't seem to realise ballot closed before game today. A fair few people caught off guard.

It seems getting the ticket is the easy bit. Trying to justify to myself basically spending more for travel for 1 game than my season ticket next season
 
It was a bit random tbh, we got four with zero credits but there’s a few I know of who were chubbed.

We’re just going to drive down instead at this point as the return flights are ridiculous.
 
I got some in the uefa ballot for it, or at least I think I did, going to check to see if the email is legit in the morning. But 2 hours scrambling round tonight and travel options look dire.

Oh nice one. I tried in the UEFA ballot, on condition that United get through, guessing I didn't get any and no money been deducted from account.

Tbh, as special as it'd be, I don't really mind given the crazy money involved...

How long is the drive? I read that flights are long as they don’t go direct. Gutted I’m not going but if there’s a decently organised fanzone or something then that’ll be the next best thing for me.

It’s 1100 miles so 17-18 hours… planing to leave Tuesday and cover as many miles as we can, aim is get down to Bordeaux and stop over. Bilbao is about 4 hours from there so hopefully be there for midday.

Will take one if you have one going spare. I’m all sorted for travel and accommodation, but no ticket at the moment. I’m only a Cup Season Ticket holder, so wasn’t eligible for the ballot.
 
Gutted, looks like they've all sold.

Missed out on applying as I'm 1 season short of being a gold ST holder :(.

Can only hope there's a few returns and as per instructions in the first email we get a notification of a ballot with the spares on the 12th.

I'll still be in Bilbao rocking it at the fanpark with my dad regardless. What an experience it'll be.

If by some freak chance you've got a few going, I'll happily take two. Happy to pay above the fv as a token of appreciation also.
 
Chubbed in Uefa ballot as well. EUGH!

as others have mentioned above, if anyone has tickets through either United's or UEFA ballot and then cant get over there then I'm happy to pay for one as i have flights etc. already booked.
 
I’ve got two in the ballot but don’t think I can go, how easier is it to pass them on? It’s saying the tickets go to a Uefa app, can they be passed on from there?

It’s vague, but the UEFA help info says it can be transferred to “your guests but not a third party”.

My guess is that that’s them discouraging people from transferring to touts.

Happy to take the tickets if you can’t make it mate? Even one works for me, if it means someone else here can go too.

I've already PM'd him as i'm sure a few others have to :lol:
 
I've just booked Sport Options. Looks like I'm off to Bilbao. Will let my Mrs know later... :o
 
Does anyone know if you have friends in other price categories on the same tier in Bilbao can you walk around to other sections of ground?
 
I've transferred loads of tickets in the Uefa app before for other tournaments. You can send to anyone just using their email address.
 
If anyone has a pair that they can't shift let me know. Happy to take them off your hands at face value as me and all lads I go with got chubbed in both ballots. Won't entertain paying over for them as I'm already fuming so many fans have missed out when the Internet is awash with tickets going at over a grand a piece!! Touts do my head in

Please DM me if you have.

Have up to 4 tickets available for West Ham next weekend, in pairs but both in Stretty tier 2, blocks are next to each other (3104 and 3105).

Drop me a DM if interested.

Still got 2 tickets available in W3104, pm me if interested.
 
Will take a pair for Villa if anyone has them. Lots of singles available at the website, but would rather sit with a mate.

It’s ran by red square who did the fa cup final at Fc United last year… that was great to be fair, I think it’ll be the best option at the arena if you can’t go

Depends what you're into. Arena will be £7 pints and beer throwers, but it will be a big atmosphere etc etc.

Not my kind of thing but right for some.
