Bournemouth have issued a warning to supporters over the use of third-party travel providers ahead of the club's maiden UEFA Europa League campaign. The Cherries will not be offering organised travel for league-phase away fixtures, following consultation with supporters.
What happened?
The club revealed that although there was strong interest in attending European away matches, only a small proportion of fans expected to use official organised travel.
Why it matters for Bournemouth
Instead, the majority indicated that they planned to make their own arrangements for flights and accommodation, with the club also recognising the potential risks surrounding organised travel.
What comes next?
For now, supporters travelling independently will be provided with local travel guidance once Bournemouth have received the relevant information from local authorities, police and host clubs. With Bournemouth's European adventure now rapidly approaching, the announcements provide supporters with an early indication of what to expect, as they sit 6th in Premier League, 57 pts, 13W-18D-7L from 38 games, recent form DDWWD, and 28 points behind leaders Arsenal, following their last result, Nottingham Forest 1-1 Bournemouth on 2026-05-24, and with their next fixture vs Ipswich on 2026-11-07. The club have also confirmed how away tickets for individual Europa League fixtures are expected to be sold, with priority broadly following Bournemouth's existing Premier League away points structure, and no European points to be added to supporters' existing home or away points totals. Currently sidelined players include Amine Adli, Eli Junior Kroupi, Julián Araujo, Veljko Milosavljević, David Brooks, and Tyler Adams.
