World Cup Charters

1 June 2021 Poland vs. Russia (in Wroclaw)   Thanks to their head coach Stanslav Cherchesov, Russia have been preparing in Austria for major tournaments quite a few times already. They did so in 2021 as well, and then travelled to their first pre-tournament friendly in Wroclaw against Poland with S7 Airlines:   SBI8205 INN 1715-1830 WRO A319 VP-BHK (31/05/21) SBI8206 WRO 0105-0430 SVO A319 VP-BHK (02/06/21)   Croatia vs. Armenia (in Velika Gorica) KM7014 MLA 0430-1000 EVN A20N 9H-NEO (30/05/21) KM7015 EVN 1130-1300 ZAG A20N 9H-NEO (30/05/21) KM7016 ZAG 1700-1920 ARN A20N 9H-NEO (02/06/21)   Kosovo vs. San Marino (in Pristina)   After losing 0-7 in Cagliari against Italy, San Marino will take on supposedly easier opponents in Pristina. But watch out for the Kosovarians, as they showed some formidable displays in the Nations League and were in the mix for a spot at the final tournament until very late. They will travel to Pristina on an Albastar Boeing 737-800: ...

11 June 2021   Turkey vs. Italy (in Rome)   Group A will start the pan-European tournament with a game between hosts Italy and Turkey in Rome. While the Italians will arrive from their regular training base in Coverciano near Florence, Turkey have set up camp before the tournament in Germany. A Turkish Airlines Airbus A330-300 with special decals took them from Antalya to Paderborn and will most likely also take them from Paderborn to Rome for the opening game. Another charter flight has been announced to take supporters from Istanbul to the game at the Stadio Olimpico.   TK3231 IST xxxx-xxxx PAD A333 (09/06/21, ferry flt) TK3232 PAD 1600-1800 FCO A333 (09/06/21) TK3233 FCO xxxx-2015 IST A333 (09/06/21, ferry flt) TK3241 IST 1530-1710 FCO A333 (10/06/21) TK3233 IST 0900-1030 FCO A333 (12/06/21, ferry flt) TK3234 FCO xxxx-xxxx GYD A333 (12/06/21) TK3235 GYD 2015-2220 IST A333 (12/06/21, ferry flt) A Turkish Airlines A330-300 seen at Madrid-Barajas in March 2020.

With the club season now over, the preparation for the EURO 2020 is in full swing, all across the continent now. Every team is looking for ideal opponents to be ready for their start into the postponed tournament. Here is a look at what has been moving where until 31 May 2021.   23 May 2021   Ukraine vs. Bahrain (in Kharkiv)   The first reported game happened in Kharkiv, where the Ukraine hosted Bahrain for a one-off friendly. While other teams from outside Europe would usually embark on a tour for several games, Bahrain travelled back home the day after the game, which ended 1-1.   GF7020 BAH 0900-1400 HRK A20N A9C-TB (20/05/21) GF7021 HRK 1410-xxxx BAH A20N A9C-TB (24/05/21)   27 May 2021   Turkey vs. Azerbaijan (in Alanya)   Two traditional befriended countries meeting before a final tournament is an absolute classic. Turkey hosted Azerbaijan in Alanya, before they would go into camp in the region and long before they would travel to Baku actually, ...

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...
