Getting a bit bored by strauss dismantling our bowling. I was wondering if anyone has any info on how the teams and their support staff are travelling around the sub-continent. Are they flying commercial or chartering aircraft? I'm pretty sure that when another team tours India both teams travel together from city to city on the same charter.

Usually the teams charter an aircraft from an airline like AI, 9W, IT, etc.

No idea who they are flying with this time.

The New Zealand team came to AMD from BOM on an S2 flight a couple of days ago.

That video appears to have been taken on a BA plane, and I'm pretty sure that they fly BA only to the West Indies', and the fact that most of them were wearing suits, I'm pretty sure this would've been for the 2007 WC.

They chartered a 9W A332 to DUR for the South Africa T20 game, which had many celeb's as spectators..

LHR is always on 9W, Australia/NZ on SQ/TG or EK, SA is on EK and more recently on 9W

9W 9068.
