Not all Travel Operators are authorized to sell packages to South Africa which include tickets to matches. Only operators which have partnered with FIFA can guarantee the availability of tickets.
From the FIFA website:
1. http://www.fifa.com/ is the only online source for legitimate tickets sold outside of a package. Paper ticket applications are also available in South Africa at FNB branches nationwide. (read more about how to buy tickets online).
2. Participating Tour Operators are the only entities authorized by FIFA to sell ticket inclusive travel packages for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa.
Actually, very few travel operators can offer packages.
In the United States, only three operators are authorized sellers: Great Atlantic Travels, Cartan Tours and My Africa Vacation.
In the United Kingdom, there are: Thomas Cook (which serves all European countries), Thomson, Keith Prowse and BAC Sport.
In Brazil, authorized sellers are Agaxtur, Ambiental, Stella Barros, Pallas, Marsans and TAM Viagens.
