London’s Olympic bid team has offered athletes and team officials a package including free flights to the Games if the city wins hosting rights for 2012. Promises also include £53 each in telephone calls, free train travel and free accommodation for family members.

On Sunday, London’s team revealed a number of incentives for members of international sporting bodies. The announcements are aimed at boosting London’s case against Paris, New York, Madrid and Moscow for the vote in July.
