For a team that has one of the league’s most historic past and largest group of fans, the Washington Redskins are simply not being talked about as the 2008 NFL season draws nearer. Especially for a team that had an impressive winning streak at the end of last year to make it to the playoffs as one of the more dangerous teams in the NFC before being eliminated by the Seahawks. After 2 impressive preseason games and even with a new coach the Redskins seem to not have lost a step, but rather gained two steps while nobody is noticing as Farve, the Cowboys, and Giants steal all the attention. I for one think that is awesome and am having a difficult time from getting too excited for a team that has made the playoffs three times since their Super Bowl XXVI victory. Sure it is only preseason but you can just tell that this team is different. There is a whole different kind of vibe noticed while watching them during training camp or a preseason game. Fortunately I am apparently not the only one who has noticed.

Don’t miss the chance to witness history or at least a good NFL experience. Great Atlantic Travel has a Preseason Fan Appreciation Special where you can buy 2 tickets to the Redskins vs Jaguars preseason game for the price of 1. Thats less then the cost to fill up your car for the trip up there to FedExField.  Don’t feel like driving like Dale Earnhardt Jr on i-95? Then reserve your Day Trip or Overnight Package which includes roundtrip motorcoach transportation for any Washington Redskins home game as they take their new and improved team on the path to Super Bowl XLIII.

Save Your Gas Money - Ride with Great Atlantic Travel to the Game!

Local company offers Motorcoach transportation to Redskins Games and NASCAR.

VIRGINIA BEACH (August 7th, 2008) - Do you want to attend the upcoming Richmond NASCAR Sprint Cup race, but gas prices got you down?  Great Atlantic Travel offers Roundtrip Same Day transportation from Norfolk and Newport News to the race in Richmond with the purchase of their very reasonable travel package which includes a race ticket and Motor-coach transportation.   Every year, hundreds of local NASCAR fans, make the 90 mile trip with Great Atlantic Travel, via their Day Trip Packages as well as the Overnight Motor-coach travel packages.  From local Church organizations, to Die-Hard NASCAR fanatics, the Richmond NASCAR packages offered by Great Atlantic Travel have been a hit since the early 80’s. 

“We’ve seen a noticeable increase in bookings for our Motor-coach package sales both online and via our travel office” says Michelle Yeager, President of Great Atlantic Travel.  “In the past couple of years, most fans purchased only the tickets from us and drove themselves to the race…but now with gas prices soaring, everyone is ready to ride along in our Motor-coaches booking the Day Trip Package.  Last year, we sent 7 Motor Coaches up to Richmond…this year we’re on track to send 10 or more.”

For the first time in many years, Richmond Motor Speedway is not sold out of tickets yet…you can still purchase tickets to the Sprint Cup race for $80-$95.  But Great Atlantic Travel still has tickets left as well, and in order to get out of inventory, the company is taking a hit on the ticket cost, and selling them for only $75, cheaper than the $90 face value printed on the ticket.

Great Atlantic Travel and Tour is now also offering Tickets and Travel Packages to all 2008 Washington Redskins Games including the Defending Super Bowl Champs, New York Giants, as well as the Pittsburgh Steelers and Dallas Cowboys. 

Great Atlantic Travel and Tour is a Virginia Beach, VA based travel and tour agency that sells tickets and packages to all sporting events worldwide.  Great Atlantic Travel and Tour was founded by John Martin in 1981, and has since grown into one of the world’s largest sports tour operators.  Their resume includes appointments as an official tour and hospitality provider for two different FIFA World Cup Tournaments as well as two Rugby World Cup Tournaments, the Cricket World Cup, and multiple countries to the Summer and Winter Olympic Games.
