[Albion] Marseille v Albion ticketing - allocation and priority windows etc

[Jimmy Grimble]

I presume it’s half the allocation. Makes sense to split the allocation into two equal batches

Harsh on anyone sitting on 229 who gets thrown in with everyone on 180+.

I know the cut point has to be harsh at some point for someone, but if it was more staggered it would certainly feel less harsh. Say every 20 points or so.

 

[Mr Bridger]

Yes - 0800 from Gatwick on the Thursday..
half hour into the city centre from there I believe

Finally! was thinking Marseille didn't have an airport. I'm on the 8.10am from Stansted on the Wednesday.
Plenty of time to get down to the old port to take a couple of selfies before the police turn up and start nicking all and sundry.

Is anyone actually flying to Marseille? keep reading people flying to other places then getting the train in.

Yep. Flying Wednesday evening from East Midlands as I couldn’t make Manchester work on dates/times. Fly back Saturday night.

You can buy your train ticket into the city centre online and it's quicker than queuing up at the airport

Finally. I actually think ticket sales will go down to members. Everyone wants to go to Ajax, with the advice given and the expense of travel I suspect a lot of those that pre registered may think twice.

I seriously hope you're right

The OB won’t be happy until they nick someone who’s it going to be I wonder

 

[armchairclubber]

I read that as if you’re within 10 years of issue date you’ll be fine I think?

Combined with at least 3 months validity on departure date, yes.
With the issue date effectively becoming expiry date +10 years

Peace of mind, booking transport and hotels that I'll get a ticket on Friday.
Without checking I presume the Friends and Family applies and we can book seats together?

5 loyalty points for this one?! What’s that about?

Speaking re Marseille, we already know the French hate us, but looking a little deeper, as soon as the draw was made EasyJet upped their prices for the cities we're playing in.........strictly speaking, due to Brexit the "authorities" need to know where any Brit visitors are staying and their financial details..........................

 

[Colonel Mustard]

I think people with Monday dates should be reasonably confident. The way I see it is that because the club has stated that everyone with a Friday date will get a ticket, and because it's highly unlikely that everyone with high points who preregistered will actually book, there are certain to be quite a lot available come Monday. Whether they will last into Tuesday, who knows, but I think anyone getting in fairly promptly on Monday will be fine.

Naturally Easyjet put up prices as that is how their business model works

Utter bollocks. We all know that transport and hotel prices automatically reflect demand via algorithm. I think you've looked a little too 'deeply' here
