Time to plan ahead for some of the year’s most traveled sporting events. Super Bowl LI is rapidly approaching, landing Feb. 5 this year. Hosted at the NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas, the event is sure to be a sold-out show no matter the competition.

 

Prime Sport’s Super Bowl LI page has event plans $4,545–7,800, or more, per person with packages ranging from standard to luxury accommodations. Ticket packages range in events from pre-game parties to after-parties, in addition to the already highly sought-after tickets to the game. Concierge packages can be completely customized and offer an unparalleled game day experience at a cost.

 

The Kentucky Derby is a longstanding, Southern tradition in Louisville. Known as the “fastest two minutes i sport,” the Kentucky Derby is much more than a horse race. The event is a well known, affluent affair. This May, visitors should prepare for big hats, Mint Juleps and high-society with a Kentucky Derby travel package.

 

Derby fans can stay in Lexington three to five nights from $1,600–1,800 per person. Tickets include a ticket to the event, horse farm tours, welcome event access, motorcoach transportation and accommodations at Hilton Lexington. The $2,000 ticket ranges offer Crowne Plaza lodging and post-Derby dinner tickets.

United flyers are sure to notice these enhancements from the moment they step on board: Each new or updated plane sports remodeled seats, seatback entertainment screens for everyone, Bluetooth connectivity and more, all adding up to a better experience on every journey.
