Rob Cecconi, Sportsnet Holidays’ Managing Director said “Australians and International visitors get the opportunity to visit Melbourne and watch some of the best tennis in the world which for the first time will be played on the new plexycushion surface in favour of the old rebound ace. Australian Open 2008 truly promises to be a spectacular event”.
Sportsnet Holidays has created unique travel experiences which include exclusive access to the Melbourne Colonial Tramcar Restaurant and 3 course champagne breakfast. Sportsnet Holidays’ clients will cruise the streets of Melbourne while enjoying fine cuisine and beverages before a day of Australian Open action.
