Good summary there Andrew - I think there are two key issues. Accomodation is so expensive and is so limited (particularly in the regional areas) so either it is sold out or hoteliers are trying to take advantage and it is not working. The other thing was the tickets - too many of the game tickets went to travel agents and others (particularly the finals) for groups and corporate hospitality. People don't have that sort of money.
There are plenty of flights, plenty of seats and plenty of low fares. The only real busy day for all airlines would be the day after the final.
