Over half of the qualifiers for the Eastern Mediterranean Cruise chose to take advantage of the Flight Credit last year. In preparing for the Thailand trip, I wanted to get some feedback on the Flight Credit option, so I asked a few people for their comments:
“I chose to utilize the flight credit on the last trip to the Mediterranean because my wife and I decided to go a week early. We flew into Milan and rented a car to go to Florence and spend a few extra days in Venice. I definitely plan on using the flight credit this year for Thailand, that way my wife and I can plan some different excursions before or after the trip to utilize the time we have in another country.” ~Preston Benhard, Memorial Estates
“I like to travel in comfort. For me, it is worth paying a little extra to ensure I don’t get stuck in a middle seat. In fact, first-class all the way to Thailand sounds extremely appealing. It’s cool that Security National supports the way I like to travel by offering me the chance to book my trip my way.” ~Anonymous
“We actually did not use the flight credit last trip, but we will be using it this time around. I actually have a call into Columbus Travel (Larry Gelwix) to start looking into our travel plans. We are not sure at this time what stops we will be making … but we will let you know. What we like about the credit is the freedom that it will give us when planning the trip. The $1,400 credit may not totally cover things, but it will offset some of the costs. Again, the advantage of the flight credits will be more of a convenience to allow us to book the flights and destinations we want.” ~Tammy & Ed Harrison, SNMC
“I read somewhere – I think it was one of the emails sent out – that Security National is giving us the option of a flight credit or traveling with the group, but that there are only a limited number of flight credits being offered. I knew that I wanted to take advantage of the flight credit, so I booked early. I haven’t qualified yet, but I know I will soon.” ~Anonymous
“I recently put together a trip to Thailand for a qualifier who wanted to see even more of the area than the already robust itinerary of Bangkok and Phuket. This trip includes a train ride to Chiang Mai with first-class private sleeper car accommodations, and a quick get away to Siem Reap, Cambodia, home to Angkor Wat. The qualifier was shocked at the total travel price of $1,372 per person. They couldn’t believe that they could add two more cities to their trip without going over the $1,400 per person Flight Credit.” ~Rebekah Rogers
