The bars are in the Malasaña area and the Lavapies area. You can easily hop from one bar to another in either area.

Thanks mate.
Both right close to digs, one north one south - we’re just next to Plaza Mayor

@Sydney Bear should make it clear, Malasaña is just North of Gran Vía (the Main Street) and Lavapies is about a 15 minute walk south of Sol.

Hi folks,

Seen a few posts getting lost in threads when discussing Madrid. I've booked a train ticket Weds 8am to Seville and back the next day on the 7am

Flying 17th Gla - LHR - Mad for 22.50 and back 19th 14.55 Mad - LHR - Edi with Iberia.

Anyone on this route?

I’m on the return train back to Madrid your on ,

 

[madridista]

Thanks mate.

There’s another area right next to you called La Latina, plenty bars there too.

Mercado San Miguel is next to Plaza Mayor, nice to look at but a total tourist trap.

I've booked with them, I sent the money by PayPal. Spoke with them today, they were working until the early hours this morning. Apparently they're sending out booking confirmation/itinerary today. I asked about the departure time incase it went to extra time and penalties. The girl I spoke with said she'll be there and will do her best to get everyone onto the flight and it might be delayed to allow for that.

If there's enough of us here travelling with them, is it worth us booking a bus to take us back to the airport?

I used to travel a bit to away Euro matches and everytime returning home there was little to no security, last time was Valencia in 2009 mind you pre Brexit so it might be different now. But back then they tried to get everyone onto the aircraft asap.

That's good to hear as deffo a bit concerned about getting back. I'll be meeting up with mates over there but obviously different travel plans so will heading back solo. it might be worth setting up a whats app group if there are a few of us on our own so we can try and at least stay in touch with whats happening regards to taxis etc?

I have a train ticket with a bear and his kid on the Monday back Thursday that won't get used.

I now need to drive to murcia to pick folk up.

10 hours instead of 3 to Seville.

Anyway, if anyone needs a train ticket, give me a shout. Face value loyal.

You’re going to struggle that, but maybe a few bars open towards Lavapies until 1/2am.

Im waiting on the departure time being confirmed before i start to panic about it.

This sounds like it might be a good shout. Like @DeBear, I'm happy to pitch in for any taxi/bus back to Seville airport after the game if there's enough numbers to get one going.

I have done a few trips with CTM this year and pre Covid. For Leipzig we had to wait on our coach well over an hour after the game for a police escort to take us the 2 hour journey to Erfurt airport where the three flights back went from. Only football flights then and although there was a queue for security it wasn’t slow to get through.

I honestly can’t recall a CTM trip that has gone to plan and I have never failed to get home as expected. Maybe after an hours delay or so but nothing major. I think it will be the same for whatever charter firm you are with.

 

[madridista]

10 minute walk to be honest. There’s a lot of bars behind the Caixa Forum Museum, might be worth a scout close to Calle Santa María.

If all else fails there is a McDonalds on the corner of Calle Atocha

Google found a dancin near Sol station open till 5am

Cheers for advice mate!

I’m staying in getafe
Can I get train from Madrid airport?

 

[Gascoigne]

Should the worst happen and there’s nothing planned for Seville for ticketless fans, how would it be watching the game in Madrid @madridista ? Plenty sports bars to choose from?

We are also getting the morning train back to Madrid but will be a long night waiting for it! Was there ever any buses looked at or not enough interest?

Cheers!

 

[Lambretta]

Anybody looking for transport from Malaga around 12:30 on matchday to Seville and returning around 2am after the game…give me a shout. Cheers

Looking for space for 4 mate.

 

[Withambear]

that is cutting it tight. Game finishes 11pm ( assuming no extra time) then need to exit ground and find buses - 11.30. Traffic will be horrendous so could take at least an hour to get to airport 12.30. Then still got to get through security etc and get to gate half an hour before departure

Any delays and it will lead to missed flights

 

[Boldvale]

We’ve got the 7am train to Seville on the wed and 7am train back in the thu morning

booked on the 7am Wed morning and back to Madrid on the 14 43 Thursday. Home on Friday 1730 to Heathrow.

 

[madridista]

I’m staying in getafe

Getafe isn’t technically Madrid. It’s a bit like Paisley, another town but very close to the city.

You’d need to get the metro from the airport to Nuevos Ministerios. Once in NM station, you’ll need to catch the train (the C4 to Getafe). Will take you over an hour.

Plenty bars. Mostly in the centre and Irish (only Irish in name) Bars. Best one for screens in James Joyce in Calle Alcalá, just next to Cibeles fountain.

 

[WATP87]

Anyone on the Heathrow flight with Iberia on the Tuesday night in at 22.50? Happy to share a taxi in to Atocha. Had planned a bus @madridista - is that best if traveling alone?

Aye you’ll be fine. Bus is 5€ from Airport to Atocha.

Not many posts highlighting issues with traffic but this is going to cause some serious delays. Gridlock possible with so many vehicles trying to get away from Seville after the game.

 

[Brissy Bear]

When are most people arriving in Seville itself? Wednesday or earlier?

We’re down Tuesday morning

 

[Teddy bear]

Got 2 manchester to valencia flights. Tue 17th til friday 20th flying with ryanair. Had orginally booked car hire from valencia to cordoba then train to seville for game day but can no longer go.

Ryanair name change is £115 per person

What time is your flights?

 

[Teddy bear]

Is anyone heading back to Lisbon for a Thursday morning flight?

 

[Gascoigne]

Plenty bars. Mostly in the centre and Irish (only Irish in name) Bars. Best one for screens in James Joyce in Calle Alcalá, just next to Cibeles fountain.

Outstanding mate, thank you!

How easy is it to change passengers on a Ryanair flight.
Arranged this with another poster on here (much appreciated that man).
Having never done it before I’m not really sure what it involves.

You'll need to pay a hefty amount to change names.

 

[Robert Prytz]

Can anyone tell me times/info for ctm flight on Wednesday morning, lad in work has had an email saying he has got a space flight + ticket £715 but looks dodgy at this stage.

Probably not as hefty as what the flight prices are coming in at just now booking from scratch!

For any bears still looking for accommodation in Seville, keep checking booking.com. I managed to get one this morning in Seville, presumably a cancellation. Keep at it

Probably not, think it's £115 to change names.

Assume this is the case but are the trains in Spain (…) all ticket affairs? I.e. you can’t just board without a reservation? Due to a bit of indecision, struggling to arrange transport back from Seville to Madrid to catch our 1545 flight on the Thursday 19th back to Heathrow. May need to offer 4x flights for sale so early interest appreciated.

Not a definite yet as still trying to book
But my plan is Madrid Seville hire car and I would head straight back after game - well early hours.
If so I could have space for 4. Although Cordoba is looking like a stopover. Will let you know as depends on flight times I wnd up with.

I’m at the Clube Alvorferias about 5 mins away. I arrive on Sunday. I’ve booked an 8 seater through the hotel to take us to Seville as a plan B so we can arrange to get you and your boy.

Just saw this, thanks for the offer, really appreciate it but I didn’t want to take any risk and booked a car a few days back.

I have friends in Abuferia who are coming with me too now, they also have an apartment booked in Seville so we can crash there for the night too.

I hope this doesn’t impact you, pretty sure others will take you up anyway!

Thanks again, appreciated!
