UEFA Champions League Final in Istanbul
Question: Is anybody attending the aforementioned event in a plane spotting capacity. If so, are there any organised tours to allow us to attend the days events at the airports.
P.S anybody willing to take me out there for the day
yours hopefully

Hi runtobarlu,
I haven't lived in Istanbul since I was a kid but as far as I know, the football stadium is not close to the airport. The other thing is that due to the security in Istanbul, I don't know if the authorities will even let you to a plane spotting area near the airport. But I can't say more than this as I don't know the area around Ataturk/Yesilkoy airport.
It is possible to perhaps do spotting from one of the residential apartments near the airport but someone with knowledge of the area will have to post here to help you.
Good luck. As for Liverpool, forget them even having a chance at beating Chelsea or AC Milan - they won't even make it to the Finals!

As far Liverpool not being able to beat Chelsea or AC.... that's what people said about Juventus!
Plus some weird links with the last time Liverpool won the cup...
1. Charles gets married
2. Pope dies...
There are a few others too, maybe this could be the year?

Just a heads up to all you spotters out there. The 2007 UEFA Cup Final has been awarded to Hampden Park, Glasgow. This was for the venue of the 2002 Champions League Final.

Hi Danny_R,
Those events are quite amazing really! Well, I'm all for any English team winning the Champions League. But today, Liverpool lost to West Brom! Anyways, don't get me wrong-Chelsea coach Josee Murinho is an --shole so I'd rather Liverpool won.

I doubt it, it’s usually just ignorant English people who have that view of Liverpool. Just look at US citizens , they love Liverpool… same applies for most on the continent.
I say ignorant, as they obviously don't know the facts, considering Liverpool now has less crime than neighbouring Manchester, any many other UK cities of similar size.
