If the club charter isn't sitting on the tarmac, it will probably be flying empty to somewhere else.... and then flying back empty. Those costs have to be factored into the amount the club is being charged.

The club also has to have one eye on the potential costs of the next round, which will be considerably more.

The will team bank about a quarter of a million for winning this tie though.

Maybe. But the next tie is going to cost a lot more, if we make it there. It makes sense to look at the two ties as an overall package.

I think the club will bank £285k if they win the next tie as well.

But we’ll get a much bigger home gate if we get through, all swings and roundabouts

All of which will have been factored into the calculations..... Which will lead back to the amount fans are being charged for the charter.

Booked my Dad and I on this, pricey but gets us there and we’ll have best part of two full days in the Faroes and a guaranteed transfer back to the airport right after the match. Got a room booked for 2 nights via Air BnB. 15 min walk from the bus terminus in Torshavn. Need to find transport to the ground on the day but there’s two other folk we know staying nearby who are also on the charter so might get a taxi and split it four ways. Hope it’ll be easier to book for the next round....

Lucky you!
If you scroll through some of the threads, Aldo07 is organising a bus from Torshavn to the game. Maybe find it and send him a message

All the more expensive if you did it twice.

You always have to complicate things, don't you.

We might not know the cost of the plane, or how much profit the club is making, but we do know that they're over charging the fans.

Get with the script!

No I think £250 to 300 a head would be fair enough.

Why do that when every one of those seats will sell at the price they have set?

Chum of mine has fixed up an airbnb (whatever that is) for £65 per head per night.
Not cheap.
But not too bad either.

It's a bit like air guitar.

Why is there assumption that the club are trying to make money out of it ?

Could it maybe be a case they have simply just split the total cost by the amount of seat ? So in theory club are paying the same per person they take

Equally the price they are charged could be a per person ? Given more people will equal more fuel ?

It's not much more expensive than any of the scheduled trips I've looked at and cheaper than some.

Agreed.... flight times mean that i'll only need Wednesday and Thursday off work and will just go in late on the Friday. Hoping i'll need more leave for the next round or 3...

Booked on the flight and got a bed for a couple of nights in a dorm of 4 at Giljanes Hostel in Sandavagur (around 60GBP for the 2 nights).

Looks like it's 10 mins from the airport and around 1 hour to Torshavn and the same to the Svangaskarð Stadium in Toftir.

Anyone else booked in there that might want to share taxis or whatever on Wed/Thur?
