| Just for anyone who hasn't booked yet, there's a flight from Liverpoool to Carcassonne with ryaniar on Sat 18/04/09 and return Tues 21/04/09 for £20 return with no taxes added. Got to book by midnight today. I'm on it!
The flight will get you in at 09.10 subject to no delays, but its only an hour away from Perpignan in a cab if a delay occurs or a train ticket at £29.50 return which is easy to book with eurorail. Hotels are from around £50.00 a night so all in you pay around £124.50 per couple for 3 nights.
Just thought if any interested parties out there who were considering going would want to know.

| We went on the Saturday flight from Liverpool to Carcassonne last time. There is a bus from outside the Airport to Carcassonne Railway Station that costs 5 or 10 euros. I can't remember the cost of the train to Perpignan but it wasn't very much. The only problem may be train times - but they are quite frequent - and there's a station bar. The journey took just over the hour from memory.
You might have trouble hiring a car at the Airport as I don't remember a Car Hire desk there. Carcassonne Airport is more like Barton than Manchester! When we landed there we were the only plane on the Airport and the luggage carousel was about six feet long!
You'll get to the game with plenty of time to spare though.

You can hire a car there. I did it last year for the play off game. The car hire office is on the right as you come out of the "airport terminal"
I used carhire3000, it was the best deal I could get.

On the subject of Ryanair:
[iPassengers to Suggest Next Discretionary Charge
€1,000 CASH PRIZE FOR BEST SUGGESTION
Submit your ideas by email to competition@ryanair.com
Ryanair, Europe’s largest low fares airline, today (12th Mar) invited passengers to suggest the airline’s next ancillary revenue idea after Chief Executive, Michael O’Leary, confirmed that the company is examining the possibility of passengers paying to use the on board toilets in a drive to keep costs down and lower Ryanair’s guaranteed lowest fares even further.
This Europe wide competition invites passengers to submit their most ingenious, wacky and creative ideas to Ryanair via the www.ryanair.com website to be in with a chance of winning a €1,000 cash prize.
Launching the competition, Ryanair’s Stephen McNamara said;
“Ryanair is Europe’s largest low fares airline and we plan to continue to reduce costs and fares by stimulating ancillary revenues. We have always provided passengers with choice, if you don’t want to pay for food – don’t buy it, if you don’t want to pay checked in bag charges – don’t bring checked in bags, if you don’t want to pay handling charges – then just use Visa Electron entirely free of charge.
Since we confirmed that we are considering a toilet charge we have received a huge number of ancillary revenue suggestions from passengers and we want more. We are asking passengers to submit their ideas with the most creative winning €1,000 cash. Some of the best suggests to date are:
· Charging for toilet paper – with O’Leary’s face on it,
· Charging €2.50 to read the safety cards,
· Charging €1 to use oxygen masks,
· Charging €25 to use the emergency exit,
· Charging €50 for bikini clad Cabin Crew.
Passengers can submit their ideas by email to competition@ryanair.com to enter their idea before the 30th March 2009. The winning idea will be chosen by Ryanair and our decision will be final.”[/i

Why are you going all the way back to Lloret for one night after the game? You've got a two hour journey back there plus the extra cost of another transfer back to Gerona airport on the Sunday, why not just stay in Perpignan on the Saturday night (best part of the trip for me) and transfer straight to Gerona with a load of others on the Sunday?

Oh anf if I were you I'd forget that outbound flight from Luton Ryanair are currently selling the outbound flight from Liverpool to Carcassone for £5.00 one-way including tax, surely you'd be better off travelling out from there although I'm unsure what your arrangements are for getting back from Luton on Sunday, that might be a little difficult with no car waiting for you.

You feel ripped off.
I got my flights early thinking they would be cheaper so 3 tkts for £300, good deal I thought.
Ryanair have now dropped all tax and you can get the same 3 flights for £180.
