Fly for Good in 2009

Long Haul Travel with a Lower Cost Conscience; Spend More on Helping, Less on Travel

Leeds, United Kingdom, January 01, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Altruistic adventurers hoping to give their time (and money) to volunteer overseas in the New Year, could now benefit from their good intentions with a new online booking service offering low cost airfares to volunteer travellers.

Fly for Good flyforgood.com offers would-be volunteers a unique discounted travel service by working with over 26 airlines around the world to offer rock bottom fares, exclusively to those looking to do something worthwhile with their time overseas.

Voluntourism has become hugely popular with travellers, from gappers to retirees alike, but with a growing number of paid for volunteer programmes costing in excess of £1,000 plus flights, the financial cost of an altruistic escape can be high – more so now than ever in light of the current credit crisis.

By using the Fly for Good service and providing details of the planned project, provider and destination, volunteers from around the world could benefit from up to 30 percent off published airfares, as well as more flexible rules and regulations – ideal for longer or multi stop trips.

Fly for Good spokesperson, Ryan Skoog comments, “Many major international airlines already offer humanitarian discounts for volunteers, which many travellers simply aren’t aware of. We are the first to combine all of these discounts into a comprehensive online booking engine and hope to make the volunteer travel process as low cost and straight forward as possible.”

In addition to helping volunteers source low cost flights, Fly for Good has launched a unique International Volunteer Card volunteercard.com, offering further discounts on travel essentials from guide books to insurance, as well as 24 hour assistance – anywhere around the world.

Fly for Good is also encouraging its travellers to go green by giving them the opportunity to offset their carbon emissions through its partnership with Sustainable Travel International.
