TRAVEL NOTICE FOR FANS Last week eight Celtic fans were part of 300 folks traveling back from Poland through Ryanair, we were left without an aircraft for just under 24 hrs in Krakow Airport. At no time did the travel company offer anyone, overnight hotel accommodation, expenses for taxi fares or even a glass of water to folks who had to remain in the airport at a time when they temperature was very hot. Most folks on board have decided never to use this company again. As lots of Celtic fans do use them for trips across Europe please be sure that this firm very very often takes no responsibility at all for delays etc. EUROPEAN TRAVEL FOR NEXT SEASON With Celtic gaining direct access to the group stages of this season’s Champions League, The Affiliation will again be looking to fix up travel for supporters wishing to travel to the away games once we find out who our opponents will be when the draw is made in a few weeks time.
