All aboard for Aalborg


Aalborg BK


Tuesday September 30
8.45pm local time
Energi Nord Arena, Aalborg (TBC)


Tickets

The Aalborg Stadion has an official capacity of 13,800, 7,700 of which is seating.

It is anticipated United fans will get an allocation of about 1,000 to 2,000 tickets, though there is a possibility that the fixture could be switched to a bigger ground.

The only problem with a venue switch is that there isn't a suitably-sized stadium in northern Denmark close to Aalborg and there's only a month left to the match.

There are three possible (sensible) routes:

1. London Stanstead to Aarhus on Ryanair, priced between £35 and £150 return, depending when you intend to fly.
Aarhus airport to Aarhus on a coach, which takes an hour and costs about £8.

2. London Gatwick to Aalborg on Danish airline Sterling, priced at about £100 return depending on when you intend to fly.

3. London Stanstead to Gothenberg on Ryanair, priced at about £40 return, depending on when you intend to fly.
