Arizona Cardinals Raise the Bar With New Fan Travel Experience – But It'll Cost a Pretty Penny
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. Advertisement 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. Advertisement 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? RELATED: How To Watch the Arizona Cardinals Games Live 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. Advertisement 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.' Advertisement '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.

Cardinals fans will pay $2,500 and up for team-sponsored trip to game in Dallas
The Cardinals have found a new way to make money off their fans traveling to road games. The team today unveiled a new program called Cardinals Premier Travel, in which the team sill provide a private flight, two nights in a hotel, a team-sponsored tailgate and welcome reception, and other amenities. Packages will start at $2,500 per person. 'In recent years, the number of Cardinals fans who travel to support the team at road games has increased exponentially,' Cardinals owner Michael Bidwill said in a statement. '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.' The program will start with the Cardinals' Monday night game on November 3 at Dallas. '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,' Bidwill said. Given how many rabid NFL fans travel to see their favorite teams on the road, it's surprising that programs like this aren't more commonplace. Teams know their fans are spending money on the road, and the logical next step for the NFL is for teams to get a share of that money.
