Estonian Sports Fans Go to Vancouver

It will be around one hundred the number of sports fans that from Estonia will head to Vancouver to support the Estonian national delegation at the Olympic Games.According to Estravel, the official sales agent of the Olympic Games in Estonia, this is the number of people who booked their flights and accommodation for participating to the experience of the Olympic Games.Mari Liis Ruutsalu, Estravel marketing and communications manager, explained that the number stayed quite low because of the high costs of the travel and the great distance of the event: with an average price of 40.000 kroons only for plane tickets and accommodation, the Olympic Games became extremely expensive also for some hard core supporters of the Estonian team.Speaking about the preferences of the people who will fly from Estonia to Vancouver, Ms. Ruutsalu explained how Estonians showed an high interest on getting tickets for cross-country ski events. google_ad_client = "pub-7566508867516851"; /* 468x60, creato 18/10/09 */ google_ad_sl
