Supporters hoping to see the Tottenham vs Manchester United Europa League final in person will have to fork out a lot of money to be in attendance

An all-English Europa League final has been confirmed, cue a mad scramble for Tottenham and Manchester United fans searching for flights and hotels in Bilbao.

Spurs reached their first European final in six years thanks to what turned out to be a comfortable semi-final triumph over Bodo/Glimt.

Already 3-1 up from the first leg, goals from Dominic Solanke and Pedro Porro completed the job in Norway and Ange Postecoglou has the chance to deliver on his promise of always winning a trophy in his second season at a club.

Meanwhile, Man Utd will to return to the San Mames after dispatching Athletic Club 7-1 over two legs.

However, with the Europa League Final taking place on Wednesday May, 21, 2025, that is not a lot of time for supporters to plan journeys and book flights and hotels.

A leading airline states the quickest return option from Manchester to Bilbao, flying out the day of the final and coming home the day after, costs £1,648 per person. This is an increase of over £600 from just a week ago.

Meanwhile the quickest return option from London to Bilbao, flying out the day of the final and coming home the day after, costs £1,846 per person. An increase of around £100 from last week.

The search for somewhere to stay is equally fierce, with one leading hotel website boasting that four of its nine rooms in Bilbao were already booked up for the day of the Europa League.

That leaves hotel rooms selling for thousands of pounds with one, which would normally be available for less than £200 for one night, going for £4,201 on Friday.
