With the annual student group travel tour coming up, there is much excitement in the air at the local high school. Everyone is thrilled as this year it is a trip to a theme park, a trip to a movie set and the ice extravaganza followed by a scuba diving course. After that it is the trip home on the train.
Organizing such a trip takes a lot of negotiation and arranging. There are a number of people involved and each one has a job to do. When arranging such a trip one has to get the best prices you possibly can. One has to try to keep the costs of such a trip as low as possible so that everyone can take advantage of it.
Travelling needs to be taken into consideration as when travelling with many students you need to book out entire buses. This means that the bus company must have their payment upfront to secure their income for the day. Fortunately this type of booking means reduced rates.
Many companies are prepared to give group discounts if there are more than 20 people in the cluster. They will usually give you an area of space irrespective of if you fill it or not. They are also mostly insistent on upfront payments.
The trip to the theme park is different though and you only pay on the day you get there. Depending on how many people are in the group they too will give you a reduced rate. This though, depends on the age of the kids entering.
When it comes to booking the places on the tour vehicles at the movie set, you are to pay in advance as they make many bookings for individuals on these vehicles and if you want the group to be kept together, you have to order the seats in advance. Here they will give you a reduction in the fee if there are more than 20 people.
When it comes to the ice extravaganza, the company insists on payment in advance. They will offer a discount on block bookings of more than 20 people. This way they do not have to concern themselves if the seat gets taken or not. This does not apply to front row places.
When booking the scuba diving course, they require you to pay upfront and then will only give you a discount for the kids younger than 14. This means that the majority of them have to pay in full. The company feels that some of the older kids will take more effort when training. A block booking is once again insisted upon.
For the student group travel ride home on the steam engine, you have to book and pay for the entire group 2 months in advance. Only children under the age of 14 get a reduced fee. The advance booking is to ensure that there is enough room for everyone to sleep and so that they can be prepared to cater for the volume you book for.
