Flights to Los Angeles to Watch an NBA Game May be Hard for Australians
If you're an NBA fan from Australia, and you want to watch a Golden State Warriors basketball game in California, then it may be slightly more expensive that you originally anticipated.
Virgin blue is planning to increase airplane baggage charges by as much as 100 per cent and increase the fuel surcharge on V Australia flights to Los Angeles and other United States destinations from $85 each way to $115 each way, as it moves to recover increasing fuel costs. The changes are being made because of the rise in current global fuel prices, which Virgin Blue has been absorbing for some time.
As some flights may be slightly more expensive than before, it will be important for international NBA fans to find cheap deals so that it's easier for them travel to the USA. Watching the Golden State Warriors on the television can be fine, but the action and excitement of a live basketball game is unmatched. Fortunately, there are usually international airline deals on the internet that can provide much cheaper prices for NBA fans than offline vendors.
