Has anyone seen any good deals for the wcc if played in Australia and is anybody doing a package deal

I guess mayfair travel will be doing a trip again, I went with them in 1994

I'll be making the short trip over from NZ so it's not too bad for me. I have to say that it's a p!ss poor show from the people in charge, the dates and venue should have been announced long ago.

All confirmed now apparently - www.foxsports.com.au/league/the- ... 6761369703

Hi Guys, we are in talks with the club and hopefully the official tour on this and should sorted early in the week.

Great trip planned with a good rugby league mix with a visit to club houses and stadiums, beach tours and bbq at Clovelly hotel, sydney harbour cruise by night, great hotel with harbour views, plus me as the host

i hope anyway lol.
Will post the tour as soon as we know.

cheers
Dave

How much we talking?

Hey Dave I'm making my own way over as I live in that part of the world but I'm keen to get in on the tour and everything else if that is possible?

Hopefully all will be released early in the week. Its not possible to name the price until all is public sorry. but i gaurantee its reasonable good inclusions , fun , good hotel , good flights etc

Looking forward to seeing Wigan out here again. Saw them beat the Brisbane Broncos in 1994.

Have seen all England, Great Britain and English club matches since coming to Aus in 1968.

I can't wait for it! It'll be interesting to see how many make the trip. Does anybody know roughly how many went to Brisbane in 94?

Interested, is this the best place to check for info?

Nothing better than a club tour even more than international in some ways.

Also if you can have an option excluding flight that would be great!

Dave.
Are you doing a day trip.



We'll keep it at the top of the board for you

Are Mayfair doing a coach?

any chance i would be able to book on the tour but jump on the plane in Dubai (if its the transit stop of course)?

Im hoping there is a "tour excluding flights" people can then meet up with the tour on arrival in oz

Ive been looking into emirates flights via dubai





Yes it leaves on friday they also said dont forget your armbands for the swim

Are there any aussie fans wanting to put me up for the week, I don't mind cleaning the windows or mowing the lawn for my keep

Lawn mowers are not required in Australia, every household has a pet sheep and the resulting Dung (when dry) is used to fuel the Barbie.

That's it then
Cheap trip for hatty. One way ticket and after the game throw him on the barbie. Sorted.

Now that's all sorted I better go and dust off my budgie smugglers in readiness for Bondi beach

I have just priced up flights, as follows:

DEPART:

Saturday 15/02/14 1320hrs from Manchester, lands in Dubai 16/02/14 0030hrs (7h 10m flight).

80 minute wait until flight departs from Dubai 0150hrs 16/02/14, lands in Sydney 2230hrs 16/02/14 (13h 40m flight)

RETURN:

1505hrs 01/03/14 (Saturday), lands in Singapore 1955hrs (7h 50m flight).

75 minute wait until flight departs 2110hrs 01/03/14, lands in Dubai 0100hrs 02/03/14 (again 7h 50m flight)

120 minute wait until flight departs 0300hrs 02/03/14, lands in Manchester 0705hrs Sunday March 2nd 2014.

In summary, 2 weeks off work, and total travel times of 22h 10m outbound, 27h inbound, or 49h 10m in total

Price for 2 adults and 1 x nine year old : £2389:45 inc taxes, etc.

I am being given a house for the 2 weeks in Sydney, 3 bedroomed, owned by my Uncle who is ironically flying home to England for a holiday in February 2014 so we may have a spare room for a small fee

I'm flying over the day before the game with a couple of Kiwi friends and meeting another couple of Wiganers there who will already be in Sydney. We defiantly need to designate a certain pub to be the Wigan HQ. Any suggestions?

Fairly cheap. Where are you pricing up? And who are the flights with?

They are on the Qantas site - I used Sky Scanner

I will be going this time, couldn't do Brisbane but went to the world cup in 2008

Seeing Wigan play in Aus has always been a dream of mine since I can remember so can't miss it!

Hope some of the people who did the 2008 world cup trip can make it too?

Kingy

You bet we will the build up should be great





My head says i shouldnt but my heart says i shouldnt miss it
