GET TO THE FOOTIE IN PARIS USING LOW COST FLIGHTS

Going to Paris for the match? Got a ticket for the game, but not a flight? Don't worry, not all the flights to Paris are expensive.

Ok, so even easyJet are charging £325 plus tax to fly from London Luton to Paris on the 16th, returning on the 18th, but you don't have to pay these high fares. Using www.whichbudget.com you can fly to Paris via another airport and you can make huge savings.

For instance, fly easyJet via Geneva and it will cost you just £85 plus taxes (of about £30). Log onto www.whichbudget.com and you'll find a variety of airlines offering flights from the UK to Geneva from Belfast, Birmingham, Bournemouth, Bristol, Cardiff, Doncaster/Sheffield, Edinburgh, Exeter, Glasgow, Guernsey, Jersey, Leeds/Bradford, Liverpool, London, Manchester, Newcastle, Norwich, Nottingham, Southampton.

The cost of a return flight from Geneva to Paris (out 16th May - return 19th) is £75 return, including all taxes. So, the total price one would pay is £160. Compared to £325, that's a half-price ticket!

Another option is to fly to a provincial airport in France and take the train to get to Paris. Rail fares in France are cheaper than in the UK, and the service that French Railways offers is excellent (see www.sncf.com).

From London Stansted to Lyons on easyJet is £79 plus tax. From there a return ticket to Paris is around £35.

Or fly from London Stansted on Ryanair to Dinard for £70 plus tax. To Bergerac is only 14 pence each way, with taxes of £33. Bergerac to Paris by train takes about 5 hours and the return ticket is about £40.

The options are all on www.whichbudget.com - the website that brings together all the low cost flight options available.
