Discount Travel for Students

 

Photo by H. Anderson
Knowing student travel tips will let you see the sun set over Bergen, Norway-- and you'll still have money to see the fjords.

 

Being a student often means great discounts on travel. That's another reason why your college years are a great time to go abroad!

Besides more affordable prices, student tickets usually have more flexibility on travel dates, allow you to book your return tickets the months or year in advance that you need to, and are inexpensive to change if you decide to stay a little longer or head home a little early . Other tickets may seem like they offer a great price, but if they are full of restrictions and cost a lot to change.  Beware of tickets loaded with restrictions!

A local travel agent can also help you with your arrangements. Be aware that most travel agents now charge you a fee of
$25-50 in addition to your ticket price.

The internet is another place to find great travel deals. If you are in doubt about a particular travel company or service, you can consult with the Office of International Programs. Although we don't know about everything all travel information out there, we do have a good network of reliable programs and websites that we trust.
