    It's much cheaper to book everything yourself. I know some of the folks on here are in the US so these prices won't really be relevant to them but I just did a quick check.

    The platinum package works out at about 1595 euro for 4 nights. Not including flights.

    I got quoted about €600 euro for a return flight from Dublin to Atlanta, returning via Vegas. If you just want to go to Atlanta, there's quotes available from about €450 euro

    The hotel I want to stay in is about €500 I think, but you could probably get something cheaper.

    So if you take that so far:

    Flights €600
    Hotel €500

    That comes to €1100. And say you want a ringside ticket for Wrestlemania, they are about €600 as well if you want real ringside tickets.

    So add that on:

    Flights: €600
    Hotel: €500
    Ticket: €600

    Total= €1700

    So basically for the same price as the platinum package you can get your ringside ticket, hotel accommodation and flights. I've over-estimated slightly on the hotel and flights. The quote above is flying through Vegas coming back. So if you weren't doing that, got a slightly cheaper hotel and didn't want ringside seats, it would be a lot cheaper. But it's just an example how it's cheaper to book everything individually. However some people prefer packages and that's fair enough.

    I just did a very quick check there now. I've found Lastminute usually cheaper for most flights but not always. Could very well get it cheaper some other way.
