National Holidays has put a coach and hotel package on sale for agents to promote to Sunderland fans after the team made it through to the League One play-offs at Wembley.

Within minutes of the result on Monday night, National Holidays had announced the package and, by noon on Tuesday, it accounted for over 40% the operator’s total morning bookings.

The package departs on 21 May and costs from £79pp, including return coach travel from Sunderland and the surrounding areas, plus accommodation for one night, with breakfast and transfers between the hotel and Wembley. There is also free time in London the following day.

The package doesn’t involve a ticket to Wembley, which must be secured separately by fans.

Trade Sales Manager Claire Dutton said: “For Sunderland fans this is a huge event and our hotel and coach packages take all the hassle out of getting down to London.

“We have secured good availability and agents in the catchment area need to ensure they are promoting this on social right now.”
