My oldest is in the RAF and based in Cyprus right now and he has been told its the Thursday and he can get his tickets at the stadium on the night so least one of my clan will be there
Well worth looking at "air b n b". Download the app and you can hire out whole apartments for £50-100 a night, basically renting someone house where 4/5 can easily share. Some of the house have their own private pools. Could work out very cheap for dandies

2 of us on the edinburgh to paphos flight gets into paphos at 5pm then getting a bus or if we can get a few more for taxi/mini bus we would do that. Flight home is 1.15am saturday to glasgow.
Final qualifying round as predicted by our friend at https://kassiesa.home.xs4all.nl/bert...eedel2017.html
Some funk in there for us if we get passed the Cypriots.....
[Apologies for mad format but I'm rubbish with this stuff. Teams on far left are top seeds we are likely to face basically]

Booked after first leg (ever the optimist, it's not failed yet!).
Flying Lufthansa, ABZ-FRA-LCA, out Tuesday and back Friday.
Jesus, you'll be a zombie with that flight schedule!
Doesn't leave much time for celebrations after we beat them to progress to EL PO!
I presume those flights are with Blue Air (Romanian low-cost outfit)... if so, good luck, let me know how comfortable it is! What I've heard about them is not that great.
For matters such as this, earliest and best info comes from Steven Gunn, AFC's football operations guy.

AEL Limassol are playing Austria Wien at the Antonis Papadopoulos Stadium in Larnaca, KO 19:00 on the Wednesday.
It might be interesting to watch if it's possible to get tickets for the game.
