Those thinking of going to Vegas for Wicky v PacMan

Please give me a shout (PM) if you'd like me to sort out travel for you. The reason I'm shamelessly touting for business of ESB is I'm trying to get my employers to consider a specialist sports department and sorting out trips for more than just Stuey would help my cause no end. I know a couple of you contacted me re JC v RJJ and I couldn't get much in the way of decent prices, but NYC before Xmas is a nightmare. There's plenty more availability in Vegas. I work for www.travelbag.co.uk so it's a kosher company. Honest guvnor.

Benefits: I can do a week over there from about £550pp inc flights and 3*. More if you want a flash hotel or direct flights. Also, the nature of boxing dictates that fights get cancelled, moved and postponed. I can refund deposits up until a month before the fight should things go tits up.

Downsides: I can't do actual fight tickets (one of the reasons I'm trying to get an official sports dept set up).

Once your flight tickets have been issued (full payment needed approx 30 days before departure) you're going to Vegas even if the fight is cancelled because the airlines won't give refunds and insurance companies don't pay out for "I don't want to go any more".

Advice: Even if you're just thinking about it, give me a shout and I'll hold some flights for you on a refundable deposit. Prices will only go up if you hang around.

Sadly I won't be able to join those of you that go as I've poured all my pennies into going to South Africa for the British Lions tour in June....

 

I'm in australia and I can smell the shite from here.

 

"I can do a week over there from about £550pp inc flights and 3*."

A week is a long time in Vegas. I can get 4 nights in the MGM with flights in cheaper than that just off the t'interweb. You're gonna have to come up with some better deals bud. Sorry.

 

I would be looking for about four days, rather than a week..... any ideas?

 

From Manchester? Prices from about £445pp if you stay in the Circus Circus, but, again, these would need paying for straight away. The delayed payment options out of Manchester would probably be about £100 more as I'm restricted to certain Airlines. Plus, it's already getting booked up out of Manchester. London will be cheaper if you can manage it..

 

Cheaper than that is definitely available, but would need paying straight away. Generally speaking, the internet is cheaper for packages this simple (although I should be able to price match most stuff) but you don't get a deposit only option and you certainly don't get it refunded by a kind hearted travel agent if the fight is cancelled :yep

 

From Leeds if possible - though Manchester would be ok!

 

True

 

From Leeds you'd have to go through Amsterdam and Detroit and stump up by Jan 25th!

From Manchester on Delta (one stop in Atlanta) about £440pp (based on two people) or £400 if you cough up the full payment straight away.

 

How about based on one..... just in case I can't talk one of my mates or my ex to go with?

 

You're paying for the hotel on your own in that case. Add £110.

 

:shock:

 

How much would it set me back from here, Doyley?

I'm going to to hold up hate banners and burn a doll of Hatton on a stick

Go Pac

 

Hope the plane goes down :happy or would it be rowing boat from your part of the world?

 

How about the cheapest, shittiest hotel!
