Saints appoint Clarity Sports as official Travel Supplier

Northampton Saints can today announce that Clarity Sports has been appointed as the Club’s official Team and Supporter Travel Supplier.

Following the collapse of Thomas Cook Sport, the Club has worked as quickly as possible to secure the services of another travel provider to plan and deliver supporter trips to follow Saints in European competition, as well as planning the senior squad’s regular travel to away matches.

Part of Clarity Travel Management, one of the UK’s largest travel management companies, Clarity Sports boast a wealth of high-profile clients and experience in sports travel.

“I want to thank our supporters for their patience as we have gone through the process of appointing a new travel supplier,” said chief executive Mark Darbon.

“We understand how keen many of our supporters are to ensure their places on our Heineken Champions Cup trips to Benetton and Lyon are secure, and I’m delighted we have now found a solution.

“However, it’s important anyone who has already booked onto trips with Thomas Cook Sport reads the Club’s instructions on what to do next carefully – you will need to rebook your trip with Clarity Sports, as well as claiming back any money paid to Thomas Cook via the ATOL protection scheme.

“We want to ensure that no supporter who has already booked is left out in the cold, so anyone who can provide a Thomas Cook Sport booking reference (relating to Lyon or Benetton) will have a 48-hour priority window to book onto our exclusive trips, before any remaining availability is then offered for general sale.”

Booking or rebooking with Clarity Sports

If you previously booked to travel to Benetton or Lyon with Thomas Cook Sport, you will need to claim back any money paid via the ATOL protection scheme.

  • Trips include flights, one night’s accommodation, transfers and representative service. Match tickets will also be organised for supporters at an additional cost.
