Online Cup accommodation launched
The FIFA website launched an online accommodation service, yesterday Monday 7 December 2009 for fans looking for South African bookings. In total, MATCH has secured 1 725 190 room nights for next year and 43% of the entire inventory (741 832 room nights) in the 1007 properties is reserved for the public.
MATCH has also reached a service agreement with SAA and leased 20 aircraft for the duration of the Cup. These will provide 100 000 seats on scheduled domestic flights on match days during the month-long tournament. The domestic flights will fly to destinations such as Nelspruit, Mangaung/Bloemfontein, Polokwane and Nelson Mandela Bay/Port Elizabeth. This will help supporters find flight connections to smaller city destinations from their accommodation base.
The accommodation service will enable fans to instantly search the available inventory and make bookings. The process is simple: visit the World Cup section on FIFA.com and click on "Destination" and then on "Accommodation.” Enter the desired dates and location to view the available options and immediately book the accommodation of your choice.
