Keep ahead Sports Dates

2019 First Semester Calendar

The sports industry is an interesting source of income for many travel agencies. With a well-marked seasonality, sports events annually move millions of fans across Europe.

Due to the high fans loyalty level and the undeniable club need of travelling, agencies have historically been staunch collaborators of the sport. More and more are ahead of the demand by organizing 360 trips to the most important sporting events of the season.

Due to the long distances and "express trips" time optimization need, most of the clubs and fans choose the airplane as transport. As a result, the agencies work with these combos, including in the displacements on private flights.
