OFFICIAL SUPPORTER PACKAGES - Available Now

England team manager Martin Johnson, who captained the national team to its win over Australia in Sydney in 2003 and played in two other Rugby World Cups, said: “Rugby World Cup 2011 will take over New Zealand for the whole year building up to the Tournament as well as during the six weeks it takes place.”

Johnson, who features in an exclusive England Rugby Travel on-line video interview, added: “It’s one of the biggest sporting occasions in the world and I meet so many people who have been to a Rugby World Cup. They say it’s one of the best trips they’ve ever done in their lives and they create so many special memories.

“Travelling on an official supporter package with England Rugby Travel is the best way to enjoy the Tournament, the country and the entire Rugby World Cup experience.”

The official packages for Rugby World Cup 2011, New Zealand, include a variety of England’s opening pool fixtures, including two eagerly anticipated pool stage head-to-heads with Argentina (Saturday 10 September – Christchurch) and Scotland (Saturday 1 October – Auckland), as well as clashes with qualifiers from Europe (Sunday 18 September – Christchurch) and the Repechage play-off (Saturday 24 September – Dunedin) fixtures.

Supporters also have the chance to book their place at all of the knock-out phase fixtures, with packages offering options for both quarter-finals that Martin Johnson’s men could reach, both semi-finals, and of course the fabulous occasion of the Final of Rugby World Cup at the redeveloped Eden Park on 23 October 2011.

Supporters can choose from packages with prices starting from £1,849 per person for flight and ticket 'explorer’ options, with the option to add a motorhome. The full travel packages include everything fans want to make the Rugby World Cup experience as easy as possible with flights, transfers, dedicated coach captains, centrally located accommodation, official kit, official tickets and much more.
