Every winter, Europe comes alive with one of the most iconic sporting events in the world: the Six Nations Championship.
From roaring anthems to last-minute tries, it’s a tournament built on history, passion, and unforgettable matchday moments.
But while the rugby is thrilling, getting there doesn’t always have to be a struggle.
What Makes the Six Nations So Special?
First played in 1883, the Six Nations is the oldest international rugby tournament in the world. England, Scotland, Wales, France, and Italy go head to head across five adrenaline-fuelled rounds, with matches hosted in legendary cities including London, Dublin, Paris, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Rome.
Some fun facts:
- Over 70 million viewers watch the Six Nations globally each year
- Match weekends often sell out hotels and flights months in advance
- The atmosphere in host cities is as big a draw as the rugby itself.
Whether you’re following your home nation or planning a rugby weekend with friends or clients, the Six Nations is about far more than just the 80 minutes on the pitch.

The Challenge of Matchday Travel
Six Nations weekends are among the busiest travel periods in Europe:
- Packed airports
- Limited commercial flight availability
- Delays, queues and tight connections
- Long transfers after late kick-offs
When schedules are tight and celebrations run long, commercial travel can quickly take the shine off the experience.
That’s where flying private changes the game.
