Emirates offer tickets to premier sporting events

Emirates Airline has announced ‘Emirates Live’ – a campaign to give customers full access to international events, including tickets, flights, hotels and transport.

The campaign is running in partnership with TUI Travel PLC’s Sport Division.

The Rugby World Cup 2011, which takes place between October 7 and 24 in New Zealand, and the IRB Rugby 7s Series are both on offer. Tickets for F1 Singapore Grand Prix (September 23 to 25) are part of a package and horse racing is also offered as the Emirates Melbourne Cup Carnival takes place in Australia between November 1 and 4

All customers are eligible to purchase the Emirates Live packages with flights on Emirates Airline, regardless of airfare or class of travel. In addition to match ticket(s), packages include hotel accommodation, daily breakfast and all taxes and service charges.

If passengers wish to arrange a trip tailored to their specific interests, individual and group packages can also be arranged for each event.

“Combining the expertise of TUI Travel PLC, which is a respected global tour operator, with the six-continent-wide Emirates route network is a huge advantage for our customers, giving them access to premier events with the comfort and satisfaction of these two reputable brands,” says Emirates’ Russell Sheldon, senior vice-president, Network Sales and Passenger Development.

Emirates operate fights on a daily schedule from Malta to Dubai via Larnaka, Cyprus.
