Sports Travel & Tours Business

Been a busy week at Sportsnet Holidays. Best bit so far is Phil Anderson (Aussie Cycling Legend) being in the office. One the of the interesting things I have noticed over the years is that with a couple of obvious exceptions few professional cyclists are very tall. Given the stamina and sheer grit involved in the Tour de France , Tour of Spain or Giro I some how always expect them to be as big as AFL Football players.
The team here have been spending time reworking some of our bigger events post the Australian Open and pre Australian F1 Grand Prix. Feb is a big month for football codes. We get the pre season comps; AFL & NRL, A-League Soccer wraps up (its Victory vs Sydney United, which could get ugly) & we have the first of the Super 14 Rugby Union matches.
So in Feb we have to get NRL Grand Final, AFL Travel, Bledisloe Cup tickets & Tour De France Packages sorted out before we get really busy again.

Wallabies Rugby World Cup Match Schedule

The Wallabies draw for the Rugby World Cup in NZ is out for those planning their trip.

The Wallabies draw has been finalized as follows:

Sunday, September 11, 2011: Australia v Italy in Christchurch
Saturday, September 17, 2011: Australia v Ireland in Auckland
Friday, September 23, 2011: Australia v Americas 2 in Wellington
Saturday, October 1, 2011: Australia v Europe 2 in Christchurch

That is a bit of travel between cities. Ireland has to be the pick of the bunch in Auckland, flights will be tough as that is start of school holidays.

Sportsnet Holidays Rugby World Cup Packages will be out shortly we will have official Rugby World Cup Tickets & 3 to 5 star hotels which we will have pre paid as accommodation is going to be tight.

A year after we started work on this event I am finally beginning to feel the buzz.
