File - Europe: Western Front WWII Tour
Europe The Western Front: World War II Tour June 22, 2016 - July 7, 2016 Be an Informed Student Traveler! the experience is everything Itinerary Update Hofbräuhaus Dinner The Hofbräuhaus dinner that was previously scheduled for June 29th has been moved to June 30th. Now we can all dine together…Prost! the experience is everything Day 11 Nuremberg As discussed in the May 2016 Newsletter, Day 11 is jam packed with guided tours of the Documentation Center and Zeppelin Grounds at Nuremberg. Both of these places do not open until 10 a.m. on Saturday, so we get a later start than normal. Although sleeping in on Saturday will be great, the downfall is that we lose time we would have had for lunch. This is a reminder to pack some extra meal replacement/granola bars before we depart the U.S., or plan on buying food that does not need to be refrigerated a few days before hand. The Tour Director’s and Chaperones will ensure that every student has the opportunity to buy food for lunch before Day 11 while on tour. the experience is everything Departure Day June 22nd In our experience it does not work well trying to herd a large group through airport security to the departure gate. Therefore, the chaperone leaders will ONLY be accompanying STUDENT TRAVELERS through security who ARE NOT traveling with an adult on the trip. All other travelers are expected to report to their chaperone leaders at the gate. ***(If you are an ADULT traveler who is not comfortable going through security without a chaperone please come see us after this meeting)*** ***CHAPERONES will be at the airport 4+ hours before their flight, we will be able to assist everyone at check in, but it is much easier for us if we can focus on the student groups who do not have ADULT supervision when going through security.*** DON’T FORGET TO WEAR YOUR WWII TRIP LONG SLEEVE TEE ON DEPARTURE DAY!!! the experience is everything What to Expect at the Airport Due to increased security on international flights, ALL TRAVELERS must arrive to the airport 3+ hours before departure. Chaperones will help all travelers check-in, but will only escort student travelers without and ADULT through security (unless requested). All travelers should report to their chaperone/group leaders once they reach the departure gate. Additionally, you should be aware that enhanced screening techniques may be in effect for select flights and destinations. To learn more about airport security measures and to find the most up-to-date policies and procedures, please visit the Transportation Security Administration’s website www.tsa.gov. the experience is everything Airplane Etiquette While on the airplane, please regulate the volume of your voice and headset so that you do not disturb other passengers. Be mindful of your language and behavior. RESPECT the physical space of the person in front of you. NEVER push or kick their seat. Remember, you represent American teenage students all over the U.S., make a good impression. RESPECT the physical space of the person behind you, be considerate when you recline you seat back. If you need assistance stowing your carry on luggage in the compartment above you, please ask a FLIGHT ATTENDANT or CHAPERONE for help. the experience is everything Seating Arrangements on Flights Some airlines pre-assign seats while others allocate them at checkin. Although we cannot guarantee that you will get to sit with your family and friends on the airplane, your best bet is to check-in with them on the day of departure as early as possible (3+ hours). A reminder, if you would like to order a special meal for the flight, or if you have dietary restrictions you need to contact the airline directly, as Explorica does not deal with in-flight details. While on the plane, STUDENTS and ADULTS need to sit in their assigned seat unless asked to move by a chaperone or flight attendant. the experience is everything Tickets Please! Every traveler will be issued E-tickets for their flight. When checking in each traveler will scan their passport to get their boarding passes and then drop off any checked baggage with the airline personal before continuing on to security. Each chaperone will have E-ticket documents (receipts/confirmation) if for some reason the desk agents make a mistake and we need the confirmation numbers. the experience is everything Split 1 Flights Split 1 (50 travelers) Chaperones: Julie Bye (Delta), Stacey Beck (Delta), Yurii Bartlett (Delta), Kelsey Smith (Bravo) Travelers: Every traveler on Delta Bus, and every adult traveler and their child on Bravo Bus (below) *Padberg Family *Alina & Samantha Weldon *Wedge Family (C.

Be mindful of your noise level so that you’re not disturbing other guests, especially if you are with a GROUP of people. If you plan to meet up with your friends, do it in your room or another common area, NOT in the hallways or elevators. Boys are ABSOLUTELY NOT allowed to socialize in girls’ rooms, and vice versa. If you want to socialize with someone of the opposite sex, it must be in a COMMON AREA. Keep your door closed and locked at all times. Please do not slam the doors when you go in and out as it is very disturbing to the other guests. the experience is everything Accommodations We expect that all windows and doors will remain closed in your hotel rooms. There will be no conversations taking place outside of windows. Some hotels may have balconies, and the same rule applies. Treat hotel property, including room keys, with care. You will be held responsible if items are stolen, lost, or damaged. If something is damaged in your room you will be responsible for paying the bill to replace or repair the item. As soon as you enter your room check for any broken items, and let a chaperone know immediately if you find anything damaged. the experience is everything Accommodations Everyone must have a travel alarm clock. Some hotels may not provide wake up calls. The chaperones and Tour Director are not your “wake up calls” either! EVERYONE must be on time. We expect that students will abide by curfew and time frames allotted. Room checks usually take place around 10 or 10:30 p.m. with lights out by 11 p.m. Never open a hotel door unless you have heard the coded knock (we will go over this while on tour). the experience is everything Be a Courteous Roommate All travelers are reminded to be courteous of their roommates, and make arrangements to coordinate the best times to make phone calls home, take showers, and wake up. As a reminder, DO NOT use the hotel room phones to make calls. DO NOT attempt to make coffee or tea if you have never done so before. Any property damage or charges to a room will have to be settled before we leave a hotel. If a room has been charged, all occupants of the room will have to split the bill. NO TRAVELER may get a room prior to the Group Leader or Tour Director handing them a key. the experience is everything Ferry Boat Rooming Reminder As you know we are traveling by air, land, and sea on this tour. A single cabins are not guaranteed on ferries (nor did you pay for one, room upgrades were only available for hotels). Ferry boats try to fill every bed on board so they don’t allow single cabins to be requested. An adult traveler could end up with a single cabin, but only if there is an odd number of men or women. the experience is everything Alpha Bus Lodging – London June 23 & 24 Holiday Inn London - West 4 Portal Way Gypsy Corner/A40 London, England W3 6RT Phone Number: +44 0 2087530800 http://www.hilondonwest.co.uk/ Just over 3 miles from Wembley Stadium, Holiday Inn London West has stylish rooms with air conditioning and free Wi-Fi.
