Arizona Cardinals Raise the Bar With New Fan Travel Experience – But It'll Cost a Pretty Penny

Yahoo14-07-2025
The Arizona Cardinals are launching a new luxury travel experience called Cardinals Premier Travel for fans to support the team on the road.
Fans will travel on a chartered Boeing 777, configured identically to the team's plane, ensuring a high-end experience.

The package includes round-trip private transportation, two-night hotel accommodations, game tickets, team merchandise, and additional amenities.
Team owner Michael Bidwill noted a significant increase in Cardinals fans traveling to road games, prompting the creation of this premium travel option.
This first-of-its-kind experience aims to provide comfort, style, and convenience, mirroring the team's travel standards.
The program kicks off with a trip to the Monday Night Football game against the Dallas Cowboys on November 3, 2025, at AT&T Stadium.
Arizona Cardinals Fans Get a New Experience – For a Pretty Penny
As Front Office Sports (FOS) points out on TikTok, the new Arizona Cardinals experience will attract a particular class of football fan. Namely, those with the means to splurge thousands of dollars to see a game.

The experience – known as the Silver Package – starts at $2,500. What do you get for that price tag? Airfare on the team replica plane, hotel accommodations, and lower-level tickets for the game.
Then you have the Platinum Package, which goes for about one arm and one leg. No, seriously, it's priced at $6,000 and gets the buyer first-class seating on the plane, two-night hotel accommodations in the team's hotel, and private suite tickets for the game.
According to FOS, the package 'also includes access to a pre-game tailgate, team merchandise, and a reception hosted by Arizona Cardinals legends.'
The price actually seems pretty good for what the team is providing. But are they running the risk of pricing the average fan out of the market by offering packages that only wealthy individuals might be able to afford?

Some Confusion Over the Package
There seems to be some confusion as to what the fan experience package includes. Several outlets are reporting that it allows fans to travel on the same plane as the team.

That, however, is not what the Arizona Cardinals team page states.
'The all-inclusive experience includes: Round-trip private, air transportation aboard a wide-body Boeing 777-200ER aircraft, identically equipped and configured as the Cardinals' plane used by the team's players and coaches.'
That seems to indicate it's a replica plane, folks. Still, excitement abounds, according to Bidwell.
'In recent years, the number of Cardinals fans who travel to support the team at road games has increased exponentially,' he said. 'To meet that clear demand, we are introducing Cardinals Premier Travel, which will offer fans an unprecedented opportunity to travel to games in comfort, style and convenience, just like the team.'

'Feedback from fans was clear that this was the No. 1 choice among the road games in 2025, and the expectation is to grow from this starting point,' Bidwell added.
If that amounts to actually putting fans on the same flight as the team remains to be seen.

Mike LaFleur impressed by OT D.J. Humphries early in Rams training camp

Veteran offensive lineman D.J. Humphries is already earning praise from Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur for his professionalism and presence early in training camp. D.J. Humphries has only been at the facility for a short amount of time, but the Los Angeles Rams' veteran tackle hasn't taken long to make a strong impression. The longtime Arizona Cardinal joined the Rams back in June, a move the organization made after starting left tackle Alaric Jackson was diagnosed with blood clots. Humphries, who the Cardinals drafted in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft, brings in a decade of experience to the Rams' offensive front and has a reputation for being one of the more dependable left tackles in the league. Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur knows all about Humphries from his time coaching with the San Francisco 49ers and what has stood out is the man within the helmet and jersey. 'I've unfortunately, or fortunately, gone up against him a lot over the last six, seven years,' LaFleur said. 'So I've always respected his game. But I didn't know him personally until we brought him in.' That all changed quickly when Humphries arrived in Southern California just before the team made its way out for Maui camp in Hawaii. 'We got him so late in the summer, I didn't really know what to expect,' LaFleur added. 'But just in these past few days, it's clear, he's a professional. A real pro. It's awesome to have him.' Humphries, 31, spent nine seasons in Arizona (2015-2023) and was signed late last year by the Kansas City Chiefs. Across 10 seasons, the former Florida Gator has started 100 games and was named a Pro Bowler in 2021. Now returning to the NFC West, he steps into the other side of the rivalry, bringing leadership and experience that the Rams will rely on in the potential absence of Jackson. 'Guys like him, they raise the standard,' LaFleur concluded. 'He's been through it. He gets it. That matters.' Whether he ends up starting or not, Humphries' presence is already being felt around the locker room and on the field. For a team that has played in the postseason the last two years and has those same expectations for 2025, having that kind of veteran tone setter is no small thing.

43 days till the Arizona Cardinals' 2025 season opener: Who has worn No. 43?

With 43 days till the Cardinals open the season against the Saints, we look at the players who have worn No. 43. We are counting down to the start of the 2025 regular season for the Arizona Cardinals and are less than seven weeks away. They will open the season on the road against the New Orleans Saints on Sept. 7. That is 43 days away. As we count down the remaining days of the offseason, let's look at who has worn that number uniform over the years for the Cardinals. Who has worn No. 43? Cardinals players to wear No. 43 Linebacker Mykal Walker, acquired in free agency this offseason, wears No. 43. Reddick was great in 2020 but was otherwise disappointing for the Cardinals. Lonnie Young was a fierce hitter but was more well known for his time with the Jets after leaving Arizona. Thompson wore No. 43 the longest.
