The agreement with Thomas Cook Sport, the official travel partner to Manchester United, will allow MMI to sell official packages for Manchester United fans in the Middle East, as well as many other Premier League clubs that Thomas Cook Sport partner with.

Football supporters will be able to purchase ‘Match Break’ packages for all Manchester United home games which will include flights, accommodation and guaranteed match tickets to catch the action live at Old Trafford, or, as it is more affectionately known, the Theatre of Dreams.

“The UAE is known for its passionate sporting culture and we have plenty of Manchester United fans in our midst said Majid Al Mulla, Divisional Vice President from MMI Travel. “As a dedicated sports travel brand we are always looking at opportunities to bring our customers closer to their passion and it doesn’t get any more exciting than witnessing one of the world’s most famous teams in action on their home turf.

“The MMI partnership is the first of a number of global agreements for Thomas Cook Sport, as we look at international expansion of our successful Match Break proposition”, said Danny Talbot, Managing Director of Thomas Cook Sport. “We were impressed with MMI’s position in the marketplace and look forward to working together to make this project a success.”
