World Cup Charters

Belgium vs. Denmark (in Leuven) Travelling abroad is a tricky thing for the Danes at the moment, due to the quarantine restrictions they have been made to follow. They still have a chance of making it to the finals tournament though. The prospect of having to beat a strong Belgian team is not too promising however. The Danish team arrived in Brussels from Copenhagen with The Great Dane Airlines: DW721 CPH 1100-1230 BRU E195 OY-GDA (17/11/20) DW722 BRU 1000-1120 CPH E195 OY-GDA (19/11/20) Poland vs. Netherlands (in Katowice) Both teams are still playing for a spot in the Finals, in a group that is extremely tight, on low points totals. They need the result of the parallel game in Sarajevo to go their way though to have a chance. The Dutch team remarkably arrived in Katowice on a TUI Nederland Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner: TB7817 AMS 1530-1720 KTW B788 PH-TFL (17/11/20) TB7818 KTW 1030-1220 AMS B788 PH-TFL (19/11/20) Bosnia-Herzegovina vs. Italy (in Sarajevo) The Italians had a solid dis...

Spain vs. Germany (in Sevilla) The year has ended in dire straits for the German team, going down 0-6 in Seville against Spain. The Germans had looked in control in their previous match at home in Leipzig against a weakened Ukraine. They had beaten Ukraine, but against Spain, in the first half already, they shipped three goals, while Spain lost two players to injury, one of them their captain, Sergio Ramos. Germany had arrived in Seville from Leipzig with KlasJet and will return to Munich on Wednesday morning. In the meantime, the Spanish team will return to its Madrid base, using an Iberia A330-300 from Seville to Madrid.

12 November 2020 Spain vs. Faroe Islands (in Marbella) The Faroe Islands' young guns are off on a tricky road trip, that will literally take them from the North-Western corner of Europe deep to the South-West. They will play Spain in Marbella, before heading off to nowhere else but Kazakhstan. The trek all the way to the East will require a fuel stop in Malta. The U21s will eventually fly back to Malta, where they will join up with the senior squad, before heading home to the Faroe Islands on a joint flight with Atlantic Airways.

Georgia vs. North Macedonia Path D is where Kosovo for a long time looked like a likely outsider to make it to the final tournament. North Macedonia ended their dreams however, while Georgia eliminated Belarus in the semifinal. The Macedonian team will travel to Georgia with Croatia Airlines, but it seems quite open which type of aircraft it will be. A trip on the Dash-8-400 might be on the cards, even if the flight from Skopje to Tbilisi will stretch its range quite a bit.
