Swansea City are to subsidise the price of every ticket for all away fixtures in the Premier League this season.
The club intend that no adult will pay more than £22 for any away fixture this season, while concession prices will be capped at a maximum of £15 and kids at just £10.
With adult ticket prices at some grounds costing in excess of £50, the club estimate their subsidy will amount to a £300,000 saving for supporters across the 2015-16 campaign.
“The club was very proactive on its away supporters initiative last season,” said the Swans vice-chairman Leigh Dineen. “We worked hard on reducing away ticket prices for our supporters last season through reciprocal deals with other clubs. Unfortunately, we were unable to finalise deals with all the clubs for different reasons.
“Therefore, while we introduced other away fan benefits, we felt it would be more beneficial to our supporters if we took the step of guaranteeing them cheaper tickets for all our away games, whether there was a reciprocal deal in place or not.”
According to the club website, a recent study showed that Swansea fans travelled further than any others in the Premier League last season, clocking up 4,129 miles at an average of 217 miles per trip.
