A: On Wotif.com/sport you can book a variety of products for groups, including accommodation, flights, packages, activities and car hire.

Accommodation: You can search for hotel bookings for up to 8 rooms and up to 14 people per room. As long as you follow the Booking Guidelines, a percentage of the total booking value will go to the Australian Sports Foundation as with individual bookings.

If you require 9+ rooms and select this option during your accommodation search, this will submit an enquiry to a specialised group travel team and a travel planner will be in touch to process your enquiry.

IMPORTANT: as Wotif’s booking process for 9+ rooms is a little different, please contact us here with your Wotif Itinerary Number and Club Code upon making your booking so Wotif can assist. This must be done to take advantage of the Wotif.com/Sport program.

Flights: You can search for flights for up to 6 adults and 6 children.

Packages, Car Hire & Activities: Options will vary by what you search for.

These amounts may vary over time and will be communicated on our wotif.com/sport homepage.
