February 2, 2006 (Press Release) --
Fairfax, Va., February 3, 2006 – To cap a successful football season as the official travel Web site for the Washington Redskins, RedskinsTravel.com awarded a lucky fan two free tickets to a National Football League playoff game in a Redskins Fan Appreciation Sweepstakes. RedskinsTravel.com sells professional football away-game travel packages and is powered by Omega World Travel.
Michael Sahli of Chesapeake Beach, Md., was the winner of the online drawing and he and his wife Sandy traveled to Seattle to attend the exciting playoff match between the Redskins and Seahawks.
“I want to thank everyone at RedskinsTravel.com for the wonderful opportunity to go to Seattle and watch the Redskins,” Sahli said. “My wife and I had a great time and truly enjoyed ourselves. The accommodations and the seats at the game were just perfect.”
The sweepstakes were held by RedskinsTravel.com as a way to thank all the fans for supporting the team and its travel provider. More than 50,000 Redskins fans visited the site during the 2005 season.
After hearing about the RedskinsTravel.com contest on the local news, Sahli was one of 10,000 Redskins fans to enter in just a 24-hour period. ”I found the Web site very well laid out, with easy-to-find information,” he said.
The contest prize not only included highly-coveted tickets to the game, but also complimentary airfare, hotel accommodations, and the customer service that separates RedskinsTravel.com from the pack of other online travel agencies. “The travel arrangements were first rate,” Sahli said.
Travel packages to away games are a growing business for the travel industry. According to a Travel Industry Association of America report, two out of every five adults—equal to over 75 million sports fans—attended a sports-related event while traveling, over a recent five-year period.
This was Sahli’s first experience with a travel agency and he was pleased with the level of personal service. “Everything went without a hitch,” he said. “I never felt like I was on my own.”
