Odense Travel Thread

[gordy]

After much debate with the trouble and strife, myself and my daughter are going.

I was thinking Scotrail sleeper (Iwork with Scotrail so this is free) to Euston on the Tuesday night, flight from Stansted Wednesday afternoon to Billund, then train / bus to Odense.

Price for flights £250 return all in???

Cannot get cheap digs though for Wednesday and Thursday, Everything seems sold out, including Bed and Breakfasts.

 

Alternatively, I could get the sleeper to London then Eurostar to Brussels, Brussels to Cologne then the sleeper to Odense arriving about 08.30 the morning of the game.

Thursday night in Odense then the sleeper to Cologne on Friday night arriving back in Motherwell 18.30 ish on the Saturday.

Just need a room on the night of the game.

Anybody know of cheapish accommodation?

I wouldn't normally bother that much for one night but I am taking my wee lassie.

If price is ur priority try and google:

 

vandrehjem i odense

 

These should be ur cheapest choices. Most of them are not dead center but within 5 miles which costs about 12£ in a taxi. In general: Zip code "5000 Odense" is the centre and the higher u get from 5000 u probably get further away from the center...

 

Happy hunting!

For reasonably priced accommodation (£70 / night), try this: http://www.occ.dk/en/hotel_2052.aspx

 

Maybe not what you'd call cheap, but it's still available. Seems to be a few Well fans already booked in there. It's a couple of miles away from the city centre, but apparently there are a few local bus options for a couple of quid (20 mins), and a taxi is about £12 if necessary.

Thanks, I am going to book the congress centre.

 

Anybody else booked into it?

aye. there's 5 of us booked into the congress, sounds like there could be a good well contingent

 

it looks no bad, definitely a step up from mister beds in nancy and reyjkavik backpackers 8 person dorm.

OCC is an ok place to stay! And OB owns the centre so u are supporting our club!

 

A little trick since loads of u guys are booked there: get the centre to order minivan taxies. U can be 9 guys in a big taxi and only 4 in an ordinary one. 9 guys in a taxi actually beats the price of public transportation if u're going to the centre or the stadium..

Here man, watch your times with the bus, how you getting from Victoria to Stansted?

 

Train takes about an hour, that's not including crossing London etc and mind you gotta be there an hour before!

[nethertonwellfan]

Connections from london to the airports

[steelboy]

i got the stansted express on my way back from iceland, think it was about 35 mins.

 

it's definitely do-able but it doesn't leave much breathing space if the bus is delayed on the way down or there's tube lines closed.

It should only take 20 minutes-ish on the tube to get from Victoria to Liverpool Street for the Stansted Express. Change at Oxford Circus onto the Central line for Liverpool St

when you check in online before you go you'll be given the option to do it for the return flight as well. so choose that then when you print it off you'll get a seperate page with a bar code on it for each flight.

 

online check in is the baws. it maximises your time in the airport bar.

probably best to do it earlier, most airlines have a cut off point. ryanair is either 4 or 6 hours but some are 24 hours.

 

take you're on the cimber flight on the wed?

[well_nuts]

yeah 1310 flight out. will have a look and see when there is. as i say first time using this system so just wanted to make sure.

I'm trying to arrange transport from Billund 10.50 flight arrival from Stanstead Thursday and return for the 18.50 flight on Friday. already been quoted £180 for an 8 person taxi one way.

 

I know of a bus and train route but thought it might have been easier getting a taxi/minibus.
