I will be in Birmingham for the Wallabies game the next day. As Alison says we will all need to meet up somewhere for drinks. I think we have a bit of time to arrange this

does anyone know how much we are talking for one of these packages? For example 2 group games or say sf and final?

[Alison]

It's not cheap. I had a quote of $7500 for flights and tickets to the QFs, SFs & F. No accommodation included.

Give the Flight Centre a call and see what they're quoting.

Unfortunately the IRB rules won't allow the travel agents to offer a 'tickets only' package. It has to be with flights or accomm or both.

Tickets to matches go on sale via ballot from September 12 to 29 according to the World Cup website if you're keen to avoid being gouged by a travel agent.

We've paid about 6000 for a package of semis tickets, flight & accommodation at 5 star which seemed like a pretty good deal to us, after we shopped around. Booking our own flights and accommodation wasn't really saving much so we went with this one and we were able to upgrade our tickets.

That is a good deal Val :-)
