Rugby fans visiting New Zealand for Rugby World Cup 2011 are
being reminded to make travel arrangements for their special trip
to ensure they aren't disappointed come tournament kick-off.
An electronic direct mail (eDM) was sent to thousands of
international ticket holders on Friday to remind them that "kick
off is coming fast" and it's time to think about finalising their
travel and accommodation for their very special New Zealand
holiday. More than 19,000 ticket holders who receive tournament
updates by request received the eDM.
Tourism New Zealand's General Manager Public Affairs Suzanne
Carter said the reminder would help ensure rugby fans has the best
possible experience in New Zealand during the tournament.
"For anyone who hasn't yet done so, now is definitely the time to
book flights and accommodation".
International fans are being directed to the Rugby World Cup 2011
accommodation portal on www.newzealand.com to help them search for
accommodation and flights.
The REAL New Zealand Festival is
also being promoted to encourage visitors to take the long way
around during the tournament and experience rural New Zealand.
