James Glover - Operations Manager
Belfast Giants
We started working with Sports Pro Travel for the 2022 season and we now are reaping the benefits of a travel agent who understands our requirements and delivers on our expectations.
Booking travel for professional athletes is a lot more challenging that what you would experience booking your own personal trips. The number of people, amount of luggage, specific meals and precise timings are all challenges that factor into our travel on a weekly basis. The team at SET have helped us solve those problems, allowing us more time to focus on other areas of our business with the knowledge that this is being taken care of.
Nothing is too much trouble. The team work with us to find the best hotels, flights and ground transportation, using their knowledge and contacts to ensure we are getting what we need to make our travel effortless and allowing the team to focus on winning ice hockey games.
Anne McCormack - Hockey Ireland CEO
Hockey Ireland
We have been working with Sports Pro Travel for a number of months now and we have been very impressed by their competitiveness, the level of their service, and their knowledge of sport-related travel requirements. We are constantly looking for ways to support the wider hockey community and offer relevant services and benefits, and it therefore made sense for us to move the engagement to the next level and have Sports Pro Travel join us as our travel partner. We look forward to working closely with them to develop relevant travel services and exciting experiences for our hockey community in the years ahead.
Gerry McLaughlin - Commercial Director
Glasgow Clan
Travel is a much discussed factor when it comes to any team’s chances of winning. The club has made a commitment to continue to drive higher and higher standards of professionalism. Sports Entertainment Tours, and now their specialised Sports Pro Travel divison, have been essential in helping coordinate our increased flights, ferry and hotel plans for this 23/24 Glasgow Clan squad.
Being the only professional league with teams representing all the nations of the U.K. is a great source of pride for the Elite Ice Hockey League, but it does present a significant travel challenge. Sports Pro Travel have been able to navigate this and give us the optimal options for success
Steve Thornton – Group Head of Commercial & Hockey
The Odyssey Trust Company Ltd
Sports Pro Travel have helped us immensely over the past year. The customer service they provide is over the top. No ask is too big, and they always respond to our queries quickly as they recognise this is hugely important for team travel logistics.
Their commitment to excellence has saved us a significant amount of time and energy as we used to book our own travel. Their connections in the industry have saved us money and on top of this, they are great people to work with. We can’t recommend them enough, they have been a great partner for us this season..
