Red Funnel appointed UK travel partner to GBR Challenge
Author: Joanna Tipper
Today, GBR Challenge is pleased to announce the appointment of Red Funnel as the exclusive UK travel partner to GBR Challenge, the British entry into the 31st America's Cup.
The partnership covers all GBR Challenge travel across the Solent between Southampton and Cowes on both the Red Jet hi-speed crossing and the Red Funnel ferry service. This ensures that all individual travellers including the team, visitors, sponsors, suppliers and VIPs will benefit from the partnership, which will also aid the transportation of GBR Challenge cars, trucks and cranes between the main land and the Isle of Wight.
Leslie Ryan, GBR Challenge Sponsorship and Marketing Manager, said, "As Cowes is the long term home for GBR Challenge, the partnership with Red Funnel is key to accessibility for the team and all those connected with it. It is very important to us to have the support of a travel company so closely linked to the Isle of Wight."
Commenting on their involvement with the British America's Cup team, Olive Glass from Red Funnel said, "As the predominant travel company between Southampton and Cowes, it is great to be able to offer our support to GBR Challenge. The partnership is key to the development of the Isle of Wight
as a visitor destination and we look forward to seeing the team members using our service throughout their programme."
