Which fan groups will have the most chances of travelling to the UEFA Euro 2024 final, next Sunday, July 14 in Berlin? Mabrian, the global travel intelligence platform, part of The Data Appeal company, analyses the evolution of airfares for this major sports event and concludes that Spanish and Turkish fans will have an easier time flying to Berlin, with one-way tickets of around 135 euros.
The anticipation for the UEFA Euro 2024 final is beyond the stadiums: Mabrian’s data intelligence shows how this sporting passion reflects in the preparations to travel to Berlin from several European countries to enjoy grand final match. But the costs will not be the same, and this may determine the size of the fandom from each country who will cheer on their teams in the last match.
Airfares from Spain and Turkey will be the most affordable, while British, Portuguese and Swiss would have to pay the highest price increases; in fact, one-way flights from the United Kingdom will reach 572 euros, on average, the day prior to the UEFA Euro 2024 final.
Mabrian focused on the period from July 11 to July 16 to study the variation in air capacity and in average prices (one way, taxes included) of direct flights from the countries that advanced to the quarter-finals (Spain, Turkey, the United Kingdom, France, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Portugal), and domestic connections with other German airports.
The most affordable flights, from Spain and Turkey
Airfares begin to increase precisely starting on July 11, depending on the markets of origin, to skyrocket just 48 hours after.
Prices for flights from Turkish airports to Berlin remain very stable during the period analysed, although they increase by 66% from 11 to 13 July, reaching an average fare of 178 euros (one-way ticket) the day before the final. Turkey is the only Euro finalist country from which flights will be more expensive on very same day of the final, when average one-way ticket prices will reach their highest in the period analysed, 187 euros.

In this narrow 48-hour window, average fares for one-way flights to Berlin from Spain on the day before the final increase an average of 174 euros, 53% more than two days before.
In the middle of the table are France and the Netherlands. French fans will have to pay 130% more for their flights compared to 11 July, when they reach 129 euros (one-way ticket), to hit almost 300 euros on 13 July. Fares will be higher and will increase even further for travel from the Netherlands, by 73%, from 180 to 312 euros in just 48 hours.

Despite rising airfares, there are plenty of last-minute deals for a European summer getaway. JetBlue recently announced the «Overseas the Day» fare sale, which provides discounted fares to Europe for as low as $299 one-way from either Boston Logan International Airport or New York's JFK Airport. Best of all, the fare sale includes discounts on JetBlue's highly beloved Mint cabin, which is the airline’s version of business class and includes a lie-flat bed and additional amenities. Travelers can purchase deals including one-way flights to Dublin, Ireland for as low as $299 in Main Cabin or $1,299 in Mint. Those looking to explore the United Kingdom can fly to London-Gatwick Airport for $379 in Main Cabin or $1,299 in Mint. The airline is also offering discounted one-way fares to Paris for $379 in Main Cabin or $1,299 in Mint. The fare sale ends on July 20, 2024 at 11:59 PM, EST, for travel from July 28 through September 30. The airline advises that some days may not be available due to capacity or restricted travel dates.

With more than 1,300 boulangeries and a profound baking culture, Paris has always been an awesome place for your morning pain au chocolat or baguette. But the lovable boulangerie de quartier might rely on additives and premixes. After a recent monthlong stay in Paris researching a book on bread, I found that a new generation of artisanal bakers across the city is replacing commercial yeasts with carefully nurtured sourdough starters, sourcing heirloom wheats stone-ground by small mills, and embracing creative techniques and cross-cultural flavors. Their creations are worth traveling for, as I happily discovered.
