OK, now that I'm starting to recover, is there anyone considering going to Hong Kong for the 4 team tourney? Just thought if theres a few travelling we might all try and go together, I'm going to start looking around at flight prices etc and will keep you informed.

There's flights to HK with Lufthansa out of Edinburgh for £403 plus tax. Think you can also go via Kuwait with Kuwait Airlines from London.....cheap but flights are dry!
Does any one have any more details re the tourney - like how many games we actually play, where, when, why etc
Any info much appreciated

As far as I know this has not been finalised yet. I suspect it's something Vogts and the SFA would like to take part in but as yet I don't think it's an official goer yet. Would be a good un tho.

Tartan Teddy, where are you getting the flight price from? the Luftwaffe are not a bad airline. Had a look around the net for hotels and these are coming in at £30 per person a night for a decent hotel, which is bloody good for HK (been there a couple of times), so if you add that to the Luftwaffe fare, a 5 night trip comes in at around £600.......oh, and beer is about £4.00-5.00 a pint!

Reeky,
The HK flights are from STA travel for non students. For all the callow youth there may be cheaper options!
Other possibilitiers might be through Bangkok as it's fairly easy to pick up cheap HK tickets from most travel agents in BKK.

ScottK, a past master of block bookings in Loony Alba, was looking to sort out a block booking a few weeks ago when China looked a possibility.
I know he uses this board, so he might come up with the goods.
At least two of the Netley Abbey Tartan Army are interested, with another 2 on the edge!

Something to say |
Last I heard was that it is a 4 team tournament with Scotland, Turkey, South Africa and another TBC. Berti is only planning to take the youngsters to HK to give them the experience of a tournament.
Would be interested in going but I doubt any of my usual companions would be able to go along. May have to ask to come along with some of you guys.
P.S. My first day back at work so its a bit of a pisser, but thanks to all you guys and gals I met (again) who made the Paris trip a tremendous party.

Was quoted flight from Edinburgh to Hong Kong for about £480. This is an under 26 fare. Don't even know the exact dates and fixtures. Wish the SFA would get their finger out!

John, have you got any idea when the games would take place?
Also, if the SFA do confirm could you recommend any good digs for us?
