Thanks.

Depends what you're after, some prefer to see Barcelona or even stay in Callela. The Easiest way is to fly Manc to Perpignan and get a hotel in the centre but the prices will be riddiculous now at over £300 just for the return flight!!

Other options are easy jet, BMI etc to Gerona and hire a car or get Catalans Sports Tours to pick you up.

Alternatively, Ryan Air - Standsted to Perpignan is 70quid return at the min. 9 (Thurs to Mon)

Try skyscanner.net for flights.

If you're restricted to those days your cheapest option (but still quite dear in comparison to other options) would be Liverpool to Girona return with Ryanair and get transfers with CST.

Monarch are doing cheap flights from manchester to Barcelona, I am going Thursday and coming home Monday, staying in Calella, we got transfers for £20. Thats from airport to calella,from calella to match and from match back to calella, We have then got the transfers back to the airport also

If anyone is staying in Callella, I'd recommend the Amaika hotel with it's Titanic interiors, all inclusive was pretty cheap a couple of years ago and was situated near the beach front about 1/4 mile away from the train station.

That transfer seems very very cheap for all that travelling.
