Another option on matchday is Easy Jet from Luton at 6am for £115. Same flight on Wednesday is £72
Best I can find out of BRS is EJ to AMS Thursday at 4pm for £45 and then a Transavia from AMS to REY at 6am for £80 ... It might prove a little cheaper spending 8 hours in AMS, than two days in iceland...

IIRC the Play flight back is at silly o'colock for £110 ... JET2 have a very decent flight Reykjavik to Birmingham on the Monday for £59 Dept 1045 arrive 1435 - so plenty of time to get to CCS!

aNY wELSH FANS STAYING IN HOSTELS? aNY RECOMMENDATIONS? I stayed in Guesthouse Pavi last time for the friendly match, which is now closed. Take a look at 101 Guesthouse Hotel, Laugarvegur on booking.com It's not far from the stadium and in the opposite direction is the main drag into the town.

The place I stayed was Dalur HI official hostel - it is abut 2km out of town, but right next to the stadium where we are playing, that also has a decent public pool and sauna called Laugardalslaug. I don't really recommend the hostel - very military / regimented with very heavy / noisy fire doors ;-(

A little taster for those of us who are travelling to Iceland... "Is Reykjavík a walkable city?" You can walk from the Hallgrímskirkja to Grandi harbour area in about 30 scenic minutes! Reykjavik is a great city to stroll around.https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=YeNJ3FvFSKE

Is anyone flying in on the day of the game at around 1pm? If so, do they want to share a taxi?
Will be a bit dearer than a bus but quicker.
If so please DM me.

Exchange rate was about 180 to the pound a few weeks ago, now it’s about 160. Bugger.

There are 2 of us now, need 2 more for a taxi, it's around £20 for the bus and £30 for a taxi, if anyone who is on the play flight from Liverpool on the day of the game wants to join us let me know ad I will book a taxi.
