Changing dates
Fallen in love with a French maiden? Discovered your own private heaven in Sri Lanka? Even the best-laid plans often change and you may want to extend or shorten your stay somewhere. When on the road you can drop into an STA Travel branch or call a dedicated STA Travel help desk to make a change to one of their exclusive ‘Round the World tickets. Their tickets have a longer maximum stay than most tickets and with more flights to choose from, changes are a lot easier to make.
Fees do apply for changes and they start at around $25. Charges vary depending on the country you’re making the changes in and the airline involved.
Itinerary
This reflects the path your journey takes, including the dates, local times, and cities you’ll be arriving in and leaving from. There’s a multitude of destinations at a traveller’s disposal. At statravel.com.au you can use the interactive ‘Round the World trip planner to put together your own ideal itinerary that best suits your needs.
Knowledge
You can never put too much preparation into your ‘Round the World journey. Start planning as early as possible. Pick the brains of experienced family, friends and work colleagues, as well as logging onto the Foreign Affairs dept website (dfat.gov.au) to find out about visa requirements and travel warnings. And don’t forget to contact your GP (or local Travel Doctor) about vaccination requirements and remember to label any medication clearly if you plan on taking it with you.
Don’t forget that one of your best sources of info is your experienced STA Travel Adviser who can give you specific travel advice and information.
