Here is how you can purchase a spring training package for the Red Sox in Florida:
- Visit the Boston Red Sox website: Navigate to the Tickets or Spring Training section.
- Select Your Package: Choose the one that fits your schedule and interests.
- Complete the Purchase: Select your seats, add any extras (if available), and complete the checkout process with your payment details.
If you need assistance or have any questions, Simplified Travel has experience booking these packages. Hire a personal travel concierge to ensure you purchase an official package that guarantees entry to the games at JetBlue Park.
Plan On More Than Just Baseball
We get it. You’re going to Florida to see the Red Sox play. But why not vary up your trip with a few other fun activities?
- Beaches: Fort Myers Beach and Sanibel Island are just a short drive away, and they are great for sunbathing, swimming, and water sports.
- Nature Centers & Parks: Calusa Nature Center & Planetarium or Koreshan State Park are great for enjoying scenic trails, wildlife viewing, and hands-on nature exhibits.
- Water Activities: Boating, fishing, kayaking, and paddleboarding are popular choices for this area.
