Re: Stuggart or Cities Close By to Stay
Just booked flights with Ryanair...fly in Saturday morning to Baden and out early Sunday morning....260euro all in. So thats not too bed I guess, especially as the flight times mean there's no need for accommodation if one is into having a few pints after the game!!!!
It's an hours drive from Stuttgart according to the AA route planner and I'd be fairly certain that the usual bus services operate that all Ryanair airports seem to have.
The train from frankfurt costs about 90euro return or so i've been told so it might'nt be worth trying to fly to another city to save money. Strasburg is nearby but no direct flights from Dublin, but there are some from London for about 150stg.
You could also look at Friedrichshafen, another Ryanair airport south of Stuttgart. It's about a 2 hour drive but you can only fly there via London.
