    My mate in work has two tickets for me and my girlfriend for the Hearts game at home on the 19th of september. Im living in cork so they dont do flights to glasgow but tried the aer arann website to see could i get connecting flights from cork-dublin-glasgow on friday the 18th the day before the game and returning on september the 20th. Anybody know if this can be done??? Id said id try on here before ringing aer arann. Thanks folks :50:.

    I just booked it all on the net there now bud. Im getting the bus from cork to shannon airport and a flight from shannon to glasgow prestwick. Its 40 euro for the bus for two of us and the flights are 162 euros with bags checked in and the lot which isnt bad i suppose. Taxes and charges is what bumped the price up.

    Yeah if you can get to Dublin alright then usually cheap flights with Ryanair to Prestwick. Nothing fancy but cheap and cheerful.

    Yeah Taxi will be fine getting you in mate. Probally cost you about £8 from city centre. There is busses that run all the time towards Parkhead aswell.

    you will have no problem on the train on a friday evening it will cost you
    50 or 60 pounds for a taxi compared to 3 each on the train

    Sorry mate, but that is so not true.

    Just book your ticket on the link below and a coach takes you from Buchanan Bus stop to Prestwick. I do this when I return to Brussels on Sunday morning after the game on Saturday.

    Sometimes it is even for free in the train, because you are not obliged to pay for your ticket before you enter the train at Prestwick (which is ridiculous in my opinion) and the ticket man does not always show up.
