Taurus Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Mack, we appear to have 2 threads for this match Link to comment
mack Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 No we don't. We have an away trip thread like every away game we have, and the announcement of the draw thread. Might lock the announcement article in a few days. Link to comment

Tranquilo Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 why are there flights that can take up to 17hrs from sydney to darwin and its cheaper to fly overseas?????? #darwinout Erdz and wendybr 2 Link to comment
Taurus Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 @tranquilo You want to post the info such as flight costs etc, you have gathered in regard to Darwin away trip. A few mentioned that they were interested in making the trip in this (closed) thread Link to comment
Edinburgh Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 I spoke to a travel agent friend and client today prompted by tranquilos comments and the friend mentioning he was thinking of going to Gold Coast to watch Jets play there in FFA cup also on 7 August but was put off by cost of $500. Direct flight from Sydney to Darwin 4hr 40 minutes. Cheapest return trip $800. But that is via Brisbane, so a longer trip. Link to comment
mack Posted July 4, 2018 Author Share Posted July 4, 2018 $800 ouch. No thanks. Smoggy 1 Link to comment
TehSmileyBandit Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Darwin Cup is on, one of the biggest events in town. I'm up there from Fri-Wed and let's just say I'm glad I wasn't paying for flights out of my own skyrocket. EmMac 1 Link to comment

A few mentioned that they were interested in making the trip in this (closed) thread that thread got closed down, but a quick webjet check is quite depressing, there's a few cheaper flights $260 one way, but your looking at a 13hr 55m flight that leaves 11am on the monday and arrives on the tuesday at 12.25 am. Return flights approx same price but only early flights that leave between midnight and 4 am. Sorry darwin but this trip would cover my membership for the next 5 years! Might be quicker to catch an uber to darwin than some of these flights! wendybr 1 Link to comment
LeeMarvin Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 $25 for a grand stand ticket. Isn't that a bit pricey?: http://www.ticketebo.com.au/football-federation-northern-territory/ffa-cup-round-of-32-hellenic-athletic-club-v-western-sydney-wanderers-fc.html. We are not exactly talking top notch facilities here. Link to comment
theguyyouwishyouwere Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 maybe it will help pay for top notch facilities? support local football m8. Link to comment

I will be going, and will be buying a couple. Just wondering, as there seems to be a wide discrepancy between different matches. How much do you pay for games in Sydney? theguyyouwishyouwere 1 Link to comment

But, from memory, the tickets to our FFA cup game against Blacktown last season were $20-25/each. theguyyouwishyouwere 1 Link to comment

If being close to the ground is the preference, this place is about 500 metres away as the crow flies: https://www.airporthotel.net.au Swanderer 1 Link to comment
