CityJet has been unveiled as the Official Airline of this season’s Guinness PRO14 Final Series. It is the sixth brand to come on board for the tournament’s closing stages kicking off this weekend and culminating in the final at the Aviva Stadium on May 26th.
CityJet will provide exclusive discounted offers on tickets for the Guinness PRO14 Final, and access to the Captain’s Run ahead of the big game.
The Series will be promoted over the next month on all CityJet flights between London City Airport and Dublin as well as its other routes. Passengers will have the opportunity to win tickets to the Final Series.
CityJet has been an official partner of Leinster Rugby since 2010. It partnered with the FAI as official airline ahead of the 2016 Euros and has got involved last year as a sponsor of London GAA.
“We are delighted to come on board as the Official Airline of the Guinness PRO14 Final Series,” said Pat Byrne, Executive Chairman of the Airline.
“We have always been very supportive of sport and rugby, in particular, and are an official partner to Leinster Rugby.”
“We join with our friends in the Guinness PRO14 in looking forward to a Final Series which promises great drama across six games and an atmosphere in Dublin which will set the pulses racing. And for any rugby fans travelling from the London area, then we will be only too pleased to welcome them on board on the official airline of the Guinness PRO14 Final Series.”
“Our partnership with CityJet is just the latest illustration of the appeal that the Guinness PRO14 has for premium brands as we continue to go from strength to strength after expanding into South Africa,” added Dermot Rigley, Commercial and Marketing Director of PRO14 Rugby.
“As the Championship has spread its wings, it’s quite fitting that our Official Airline for the Final Series should be one with a proven track record such as CityJet. When it comes to our partnerships we believe in teamwork to deliver the best result for our fans.”
“We embrace innovation and recognise it in partners such as CityJet, which is a modern brand with a fantastic team of airline professionals serving routes in Europe and in particular the Dublin to London City Airport schedules.”
“We have six thrilling games to look forward to in the Guinness PRO14 Final Series, including a Play-Off for a place in next season’s European Champions Cup. Leinster and Cardiff Blues are representing the Championship in this year’s European Finals in Bilbao which is a great indication of the calibre of rugby in the Guinness PRO14.”
