Better late than never, but with just four before they are due to fly out, England Cricket Supporters finally get chance to pay over inflated air prices to follow the team to New Zealand.
It will see Mt Maunganui as new Zealand's latest test venue, but the limited time frame for supporters to arrange travel and hotels, means England's support won't number the thousands normally associated with such a tour.
Also to factor in, is England's upcoming tour to South Africa at the end of the year.
Despite concerns over preperation over these short tours, England again will only have limited warm up practice ahead of the first test on 21st November.
Prior to that, there will be 5 T20 matches with the T20 world cup on the horizon next October.
