Travelling abroad to Grand Slams « on: December 06, 2011, 08:11 AM »

Hi guys,

Have not been around here for a while, have just finished my final year of study, which now allows time to plan our 2 weeks at the upcoming Australian Open! Only 40 days away now!

But anyway, back on track...

As a few of you may know, myself & the boys are planning a trip, most likely to Wimbledon, in 2013.

We have the options of attending one of the other 3 Grand Slams but are not quite sure of a ballpark figure of our budget. Our economy is different to the Pound, and I am not quite sure where our Dollar sits at the moment.

So basically..

- What do you folks belive to be the 'cheaper' of the 3 Slams to attend?
- I was thinking a minimum of $10,000 should be alright for a 2-3 week overseas trip, but I am not quite sure.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

We are aiming for 2013. This will give us all a year or two out of school to work & save up.

I have been to the US Open 3 times, you get great value for money with the matches you see and the ticket prices, labor day weekend go for their holiday package you can see Saturday, Sunday and the Mondya night session for around $150, enjoy!

We would be there for the whole Grand Slam for whichever Slam we decide to go to. So we would be hoping to see all of Andy's & a few other players matches.
