The return trip I have not looked at since I need to gather more info about departure times from everybody.

It will be a 50 person bus, so depending on how many people we get together it will be between 12€ and 30€ per person. (one way!!!!)

Is that an acceptable price range for everybody? If not, please voice your price expectation. But before you complain, do research if there is anything cheaper. And if you find something, please share that info with everybody :)

I will soon write an email to all squad captains asking for flight data (airport and time) to get a better overview on what can be done to serve you the best way

Hi Torsten

Sounds reasonable. To compare, a return train ride from the airport to Heerbrugg is 32 euros, and then you have to get from Heerbrugg to Dornbirn. So, if we can fill a coach and get the return cost down to below 30 euros then we win on costs.

Others may wish to consider the train if their arrival times would give them I long wait, I guess.

Cheers

Pete

To all: Please have your squad captain respond to the mails I have sent to them in that regards. It would make it easier for me and I don't have to look at several place. If they have not received a mail: a) look in Spam folder, or b) let me know that you don't have received the mail

Help me to help you :)

Does it make difference that I'm not travelling with my Captain (or anyone else from the squad) as far as I know?

No, it won't make a difference.....I just want to have the emails bundled a bit. Getting answers mails from 200 captains is much easier to handle than 1300 mails from all the coaches :)

My captain and team mates are travelling from Scotland, I'm travelling from Bristol so this may not be of relevance to the rest of my team. Is it easier for me to reply rather than get my captain involved?

I honestly don’t see a problem there. If you want to write an email, please do so, but please mention squadname and your NAF Nick, or the World Cup Coach-ID who all coaches have been assigned (ask your captain if you don’t know it)
