An Iowa City company is keeping busy as Hawkeye football fans book their trips to the Outback Bowl in Tampa, Florida.
Winebrenner Red Carpet Travel works with the University of Iowa’s Alumni Association to help people get to bowl games. General manager Terry Tegen told KCRG-TV that travelers who plan to fly to Tampa need to book their trips now.
“Do it quick, because we watch for scheduled air and it is selling out quickly,” Tegen said. “You have to get your package booked real fast, because otherwise there is no air transportation.”
Winebrenner Red Carpet Travel offers two different packages. The first is a three night deal that costs $1,995, and the other is a four night stay that costs $2,095. The company sold out of the most expensive option on Monday and Tegen expects the three night option will sell out today.
The Iowa Hawkeyes will meet the Florida Gators in the Outback Bowl on January 2, with the kickoff at noon (Iowa time).
