Flight Calculator (£)

My flight tickets cost £162 and are now useless to me, and presumably many others on this site find themselves in the same boat. If you assume that at least 10,000 of those tickets were sold to people travelling into dublin you'd be looking at somewhere between £1.5- 1.75m in costs for fans

great

well done team prince/ mcd. it's obviously about money or the announcement wouldn't be so vague. 55,000 fans not enough for you on a rainy monday night in dublin?

60,000 TICKETS SOLD BY NEXT WEEK ISNT BAD AT ALL ....MORE THAN I THOUGHT HE WOULD SELL SO ITS A MONEY DECISION BY MCD ...THEY MUST HAVE HAD TO SELL CLOSE TO 80,00 TO MAKE A PROFIT AND THEY HAVE DECIDED THAT THE FIGURES DIDNT MATCH UP AND PULLED THE PLUG....BUT PRINCE SHOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT 80,000 TICKETS AT 100 QUID A HEAD IN IRELAND WAS ASKING TOO MUCH AND HE HAS NOW LET A AWFUL LOT OF PEOPLE DOWN AND AFTER THE INTERNET CRAP THIS YEAR....IT MIGHT BE THE LAST TIME HE DOES IT....

Hi I am very disapointed by this as I had booked flights from Edinburgh and the hilton hotel. So I will get my ticket money back but not the rest. Surely Prince must have realised this. As for people saying we must expect this from Prince I don't see why Neil Dimond has not canceled why has Prince? I will still remain a fan and will still buy his music but will only go to a concert if it is in the area I live and I don't have any extra costs to cover. I am more sorry for me than Prince as he will never notice but I will. sad
I love u baby u know the rest.........
