World Cup odyssey could cost Ireland fans €20,000

Rugby fans packing their bags for Cardiff this Saturday can expect to pay anything between €4,000 and €20,000 to follow Ireland’s World Cup odyssey.

For the last Rugby World Cup, hard-pressed fans shuddered at the thought of figuring out how to pay to travel to the southern hemisphere to watch Ireland play in New Zealand.

This time around, they will only have to take a short hop across the water to Cardiff and London, but that does not mean that the wallet will not take a hit.
