DANIELLE DRISKILL
Hello from your Alumni Association Director of Alumni & Constituent Relations!

We are pleased to report your PITTSBURG STATE UNIVERSITY ALUMNI ASSOCIATION is continuing to expand the amounts and types of benefits provided to our members. Our specially-crafted travel program is a major component of these benefits.
In cooperation with Please Go Away™ Vacations, a Kansas based full service travel company founded in 1966, which has specialized in arranging special travel experiences for both individuals and groups since that time to all seven continents of the world, we have developed unique travel programs featuring exceptional quality and value. The business credo of this travel leader is "Small Town Caring - Worldwide - Since 1966" and their services are at "no extra costs" to you.
SPECIAL PITTSBURG STATE UNIVERSITY SAVINGS AND BENEFITS
Consider: all are in place for any person having an affiliation of any type with the University (past or present); are "in addition to and on top of" all other savings and benefits that may already be in place for your planned travels; all special savings and benefits also extend to all other members of your travel party, even if they do not have a Pittsburg State University affiliation; when you take advantage of our special travel arrangements the University Alumni Association receives a matching monetary contribution.
With the two special programs described below you save money and time. You are able to experience every corner of the world any way you like: on your own; with a group; all types of travel; all major resorts, travel companies, resorts, and cruise line are available; all ages and all budgets.
PLEASE GO AWAY™ VACATIONS "FEATURE" TRAVEL
For travelers preferring one-of-a-kind value-added personally escorted group experience!
All-inclusively priced and contain special features not normally present in other programs!
-
Group members can sit back and let someone else take care of all arrangements and details of travel, while enjoying the comforts and camaraderie of traveling with a small group of individuals having similar interests.
-
Current opportunities with remaining availability are highlighted in the right hand column of this page. Clicking on any departure opens a detailed four-page for your review.
-
Departures are an intentionally limited number of select all-inclusively priced one-of-a-kind travel experiences throughout North America and the rest of the world that include many "features" of experiences and events regularly not found included in other programs. These "features" include things like meeting the locals, ethnic dining experiences, special educational inclusions, behind-the-scenes insight opportunities, etc.
-
Additionally, among these "features" are all-inclusive pricing - the price shown on the brochure "includes" everything referenced in the brochure. This removes the hidden charges and requirements most normally present in other programs.
-
You also benefit from unmatched personal service before, during and after your travels. A personal escort is with you throughout and "takes" you instead of just "sending" you as most other programs do.
-
Travel protection is always provided through the completion of the experience as part of the multiple included "featuresL"
-
Roundtrip airfare is included, as is much more.
-
Each brochure is different. Check for detailed descriptions of "features" that are included in the "all-inclusive" pricing found in each brochure. Comparing with programs offered by others is urged.
-
If the brochure you open a PYIP - PUT YOURSELF POSITION logo displayed it means that the final details of the experience are still being negotiated and that a finalized brochure will soon replace the brochure you are reviewing.
-
This unique program allows you to create a "right of first refusal" for a totally refundable $100.00 per person holding deposit. When this is done you will be the first to be provided the finalized brochure for your thorough review. At that time you can "refuse" and your holding deposit will be promptly refunded to you via check for the full amount. Or, if you accept you can then finalize your reservation by forwarding the total amount of normal reservation deposit "less" the amount of the holding deposit previously paid.
-
This program is extremely important in today's travel world where demand often quickly exceeds supply of available spaces and where our travel coordinator must contract for spaces as much as two years in advance at a time when finalized pricing is not in place.

PLEASE GO AWAY™ VACATIONS "AS YOU LIKE IT" TRAVEL
Any Where - Any Time - Any Way - Any Budget - Any Cruise Line - Any Tour Operator - Any Resort
-
If you prefer to travel on your own and do “your own things” with another person, your family or a small group of friends, while not being obligated to the more formal structure of group travel this is the answer for you.
-
Just as importantly, if you do prefer group-style travel but one of our "PSU HIGHLIGHTS" FEATURE TRAVEL experiences described above doesn't work for you, the "AS YOU LIKE IT" TRAVEL program provides the perfect answer for you. This special program provides every departure date of every itinerary of every “all inclusive” resort, family vacation destination, travel company, tour operator, and cruise line at the “assured” best price when combined with additional PSU savings for every member of your travel party.
-
We have more, but as a start our special "Electronic Catalog Brochure Rack" opens the world at your fingertips! You have almost unlimited possibilities when you take advantage of our “AS YOU LIKE IT” TRAVEL program. For example, clicking on the picture of the Brochure Rack at the bottom of the right hand column of this page will take you to a library consisting of 30+ book shelves (more than 550 separate brochures of many different quality tour operators, cruise lines, resorts, etc., all available to you at absolutely no additional cost.) There's no obligation. When the book shelves open, explore everything. Clicking on any one of the more than 550 brochures will open it for you.
-
Select "View All" - arrows at top will take you to different racks with different brochures. Or, you can select brochures by company name, destinations, or type of travel.
-
When brochure is selected you will be able to turn pages and review the entire contents of the brochure. Compare one company to another. Then, ask the travel advisors of our travel coordinator your questions. Even with the hundreds of opportunities present on the electronic brochure rack, they are only a small percentage of the different programs available for your comparison that our travel coordinator can share with you. There are no extra charges for their professional services. Reputable travel companies and cruise lines pay them a commission recognizing their value in serving their clients
NO OBLIGATION INFORMATION AND ANSWERS ALWAYS AVAILABLE
Anytime you have questions call 800-362-9347 or email GUS@TravelPleaseGoAway.com. You will be taken to our travel coordinator, Please Go Away™ Vacations. One of their full time travel professionals will answer your questions, assist you in determining that which is best for you according to your desires, calculate charges, and obtain all benefits and specials any company may have in place at the time. As previously indicated, there are no charges for their services, and you will always deal with a real live person before, during and after your travels. When you call, you will never be directed to voice mail; or be asked to talk to a machine, all examples of their unmatched personal service commitment of "Small Town Caring - Worldwide - Since 1966."
-
