NM said:And it seems that VS is also trying to get into the act. According to this posting on another BB:
I don't have the paper to verify the info, nor could I find any reference on the VS web site. But this type of promotion is what I would expect from VS.Ryan N said:According to today's Sunday Telegraph, VS is offering a similar deal to BA's Ashes special fare.
VS is taking $20 off its $1760 SYD-LHR return fare for every wicket Warney takes in this Ashes series. Before the start of the 5th test, Warney has taken 28 wickets, so the discount is already $560. In the 1st inning of the 5th test, Warney took 6 wickets, so that's another $120 off.
The number of tickets available will be calculated in a similar way (ie: 20 tickets for every Warney wicket). Bookings available from next Tuesday.
Yes, 40 wickets in a 5-test series is very impressive. Congratulations Eggland, you played the game the way the Aussies have for the past decade.Kiwi Flyer said:12 wickets so $800 discount.

Did anyone take up this offer?Mal said:The date range available was only up till early Dec. I believe Dec 2. Doesn't suit my travel needs.
The phones were seriously flogged this morning! I would have thought the tickets would have been sold too !!
I didn't ask any more details. Would be interested in the class of travel.
Sounds like a pretty good deal for this time of the year.bravoecho1 said:Colleague of mine flew out yesterday from MEL to LHR on this deal.
All up including taxes the fare was about $1300.
I can't remember the exact booking class however I did check it for him and it does accrue points and SC's so not a bad earner for him.
