Cardinals fans warned to be sure Super Bowl packages include game tickets
The U.S. Department of Transportation and consumer groups are warning Arizona Cardinals fans to read the fine print and be careful when booking Super Bowl travel packages.
The Cards won the National Football Conference Championship Game Sunday and will play the Pittsburgh Steelers in Tampa Feb. 1.
The USDOT said fans should be aware of what is covered in Super Bowl travel packages they purchase, such as air fare, hotel accommodations and game tickets. If game tickets are not specifically advertised or noted in the package details, they probably are not included, officials said. The agency also said that if travel and tourism brokers say a ticket is included in a package and it is not, consumers can get a full refund.
This will be the Cardinals first Super Bowl appearance and their first in an NFL championship game since 1948. The Cards last NFL title came in 1947 and the win Sunday was the franchise’s first NFC title.
