Packages from SA to the Brazil 2014 World Cup

Packages from South Africa to Brazil 2014 World CupA number of travel operators and tour companies in South Africa are putting together tailor-made travel packages from SA to the Brazil 2014 World Cup. The event is taking place from 12 June 2014 until 13 July 2014, and is less than a year away.

However, one thing that travel operators are unable to offer with tours, is tickets to the actual world cup soccer matches, as these are only available to fans directly from FIFA through an application process.

The sale of tickets will commence on 20 August 2013, and there will be an element of luck with regard to which tickets will be allocated to different persons, and most people will not get all of their desired tickets given that only around 3.3 million tickets will be sold for the competition, and demand for the tickets will be high.

This is likely to make it difficult for travel companies to effectively plan and sell such packages, given that different fans will have different itinerary needs, and will only know close to the World Cup date, once the ticketing allocation is compplete, where they need to go.

It will therefore be necessary for most fans to make their own travel arrangements which are customised around their ticket allocations, and to make numerous bookings for domestic travel within Brazil in order to ensure that their trip is logistically in order.

There are twelve host cities in Brazil that will play host to World Cup matches. As a result, fans who are allocated tickets for various matches, will need to make transport arrangements within Brazil to get to the various host cities. Brazil is a huge country, and a domestic flight within Brazil can easily take up to 6 hours.

It is advisable for travellers to make their travel arrangements early, as demand will fuel extremely high prices, and there will be increased demand as the event grows closer.
