I fancy going, staying the night before the game, and the night of the game itself. Not sure how to get there yet, although flying is the obvious one.
By train, SC? How does that pan out, time and cost-wise?

The best way i think is fly Friday morning from East Midlands to Carcassone then you fly back Monday morning, for the flight and 3 nights in Ibis it is around £130 per person.

i have looked at all other possible ways to get there from other airports you can fly from Bristol thats about it.

It is worth the trip it is good laugh over there hope we can take a good following

If you go the quickest way on the early Kings Cross train (0601) on the Friday but the price is ridiculous. You'd arrive in Toulouse around half 7 in the evening their time though.

Friday is also dearer for Eurostar but this below so this was the the best I could find pricewise. (Based on March 5th as prices for 19th not available yet)

1040 Leeds-King Cross arr 1310
1502 St Pancras-Paris Gare du Nord arr 1917 (local time)
2256 Paris Austerlitz-Toulouse Matabiau arr 0643 Saturday morning.

This cost just short of £90 but two thirds of that was the Eurostar because they seem to double their prices for the weekend.

Not sure if anyone's posted this but it worked out cheapest for some last year flying in to Carcassone then about a half hour train ride in to Toulouse.

yeah thats what i have priced and it is cheapest option.
