Also thinking along your lines - mustn't be too expensive as it's Wembley on the Saturday after.

Friend mentioned B'ham now the best airport for Perpignan in terms of price/flights but he said Girona more expensive, especially if you want to car hire.

The Club excursions are really expensive (like a family holiday) but another option could be the TGV thru' France direct to Perpignan.

Check out all the 'Net sites for accommodation, there are cheap alternatives both around the town and on the coast. :eusa9:

Sorry the "cautionary logo" supposed to be after the Wembley remark.

Nerves getting to me already !

If you go to Girona it's only a 30 minute train ride away, worth it (plus taxi/bus from airport to train station)

Hi - newbie to the forum here!
Can anyone help me out with answers to these 2 questions please?

1. Is there any chance that the Wigan-Catalan match on 17Aug would be cancelled or postponed if Wigan are going to Wembley the week after? Worried about paying for flights then there being no match...

2. Looking to fly from Leeds Bradford or Manchester and there is nothing direct to Perpignan. Has anyone flown to Beziers? Looks like it's about 90km / 1hr drive away. Would this be a good alternative to Gerona?

Thanks in advance

1. No chance, Catalans and Wembley are still going to happen. If anything, Wigan may rest players, to disappointment from the travelling hoardes.

2. Beziers, if you're minted hire a car or check the train timetables, it's easier than you think. Catalan Sports Tours is worth a try but they'll only pick up from an airport if there are enough people. Trains are your best bet though. I got from Barcelona on a mountain train in 2 hours, nice scenery
