Arsenal staff ‘to pay’ £859 for Budapest flights after invite | OneFootball

Arsenal employees have voiced frustration ahead of the Champions League final. The Telegraph reports that non-working staff invited to Budapest are being asked to pay £859 for travel. That amounts to almost €1,000.

The fee relates to club‑arranged flights to the Hungarian capital.

Employees can book independently, although they may need to be listed on an Arsenal flight if they want to return to London in time for a potential trophy parade on 31 May.

PSG have also invited staff who are not on duty for the final, and are covering their travel costs. The Paris club did likewise in 2025 for the trip to Munich to watch the Champions League final against Inter Milan, a 5-0 win.

Arsenal face PSG in Budapest on 30 May at 6pm.
