The World Football Championship, to take place during June 11-July 11 period in South Africa, is likely to attract as many as 1,000 Romanians in stadiums though Romania's national team will not play. For Romanian travel agencies, the championship may generate revenues worth almost 3m euros from sales of holiday packages, according to ZF's calculations. "We've so far sold 10 packages at the South-African tournament. We expect to sell more than 100 packages for this championship, which is also appealing through its location," stated Sorin Vaduvoiu, general manager of Perfect Tour travel agency, with 22m-euro turnover last year. Vaduvoiu adds that had the national team qualified, demand would have been higher. Prices for a holiday package range between 1,500 euros and 4,500 euros, depending on matches and the number of days. A holiday for the entire championship costs between 25,000 and 30,000 euros, with just one such package having been sold so far.
