    I'm coming down to Portland from Saskatchewan for this one. How do I get tickets without the transportation option?

    Through the FO.

    It looks like the only option through the club is to get the Uniglobe package if you are not a season ticket holder. Would any season ticket holder be willing to grab two tickets and send them to me? All costs paid by me, of course.

    Fuck, kind of sucks its southsiders only, had a lot of people wanting to come down after telling them stories about portland. Totally understandable though, i was surprised the last trip was open to everyone. If they were to buy the southsiders membership how long would it take for them to get their number and buy the package?

    Simultaneous. Put it in the same transaction.

    FYI not our decision, it's a VWFC requirement on us.

    Will it be open at some point to non SSers if tickets are left?

  • piltdownmanpiltdownman
    Posts: 8,036

    To get these tickets we were required to sign a lengthy contract. One of things in that contract is we are only allowed to sell them to our membership. With the last trip we only sold non-member packages before it was presented to us.

    Not long. With an online purchase, you will receive a confirmation email. You can request your membership number any time after that. All new memberships purchased online before Friday evening will have their packs ready for pick up Saturday at Doolins.

    My belief is it is one thing for us to provide this trip as a service to our membership, but when we start selling to anyone then we are competing with their partner Uniglobe.

    If Uniglobe provided a competitive price point perhaps it wouldn't be a big deal.

  • piltdownmanpiltdownman

    I won't say anything about Uniglobe's price, but it's pretty hard for them to match ours, as our contact with the club forces us to take a loss if we don't sell out.

    That sounds pretty good. The East Van Soul Club is usually a pretty good time, Johnny Was has good taste. It will be interesting to see how Soul DJs from Seattle and Portland compare.

    so i tried to buy the trip package for me and my girlfriend and i got the message "The card you entered cannot be used for this payment. Please enter a different credit or debit card number." I tried just buying one and same thing happened. I know my credit card is no where near its limit, and should not be 'blacklisted'. Glitch in the system or do the southsiders not accept mastercard anymore lol?

    Bump to make a ticket request for this game. I am looking for a season ticket holder to do me a big favour and buy two tickets for this game for me. I would reimburse all costs for said purchases. Southsider #1000.

    Are you buying the bus trip? If so, you can have two from my allocation.

    Chris said: Are you buying the bus trip? If so, you can have two from my allocation.

    I live in Saskatchewan, so I am flying in beforehand and the bus trip and accommodations aren't of use to me. My understanding is that all season ticket holders can buy two away tickets for this match, so my hope is that someone who is not going would get the tickets for me. I don't believe the Southsiders are offering ticket-only packages.

    Buy early, as everyone who enters before our home match on July 22 will be eligible for an early bird draw for a Whitecaps jersey.

    Due to a lack of interest we have removed the noon departure option, and have compromised and will be leaving Portland at 1.30pm

    This gives people enough time to do some shopping and have lunch, and still get back to Vancouver in plenty of time for transit and work on Monday

    Now that we've agreed on meeting at Fado before the Flounders game what about in Portland?. I guess we've always found Henry's welcoming but I know there were Suggestions about possible taking over the whole of the Deschutes Brewpub? What do folks reckon?

    We went to Deschutes last time and it was quite good. We tried to get the upstairs room last time, but for some reason couldn't. Would be nice to get it this time.

    Also, in case people are wondering, tickets for this match have indeed been sent out. I received mine today.

    Linens are good, but not toiletries. So you don' need to bring towels, or a pillow. But you do need to bring soap and shampoo.
