Seven things this company is not
- Not a carrier or an operator
- there is no aircraft here, no vessel, no vehicle, no room and no tour. Not one minute of any trip is performed by this business
- Not affiliated with any of them
- no outside party owns a piece of this business, and no other company's name, mark or livery is printed on any page here
- Not anybody's authorized representative
- not one company has given this desk permission to speak in its name
- Not licensed or bonded
- no travel agency is licensed in West Virginia at all, and no bond was ever purchased here. Search this site for a license number or a bond number and you will find neither
- Not a registered seller of travel
- four states run such a register. Not one of the four lists this name, and no client money ever sits at this desk in the first place
- Not accredited by any industry body
- nothing of the sort is held and no association badge appears here. Those organizations sell memberships; a license comes from a government and none of them is one
- Not a call center
- a single office with a single line, the hours set out on every page, and the lights off at night
Nine claims, answered
| Claim | Here | Why that answer |
|---|---|---|
| A figure worked out at no charge | Yes | Stated. Everything before you commit is billed at nothing, and ask us prints that as a list of zeros. |
| Nothing added by this agency | Yes | Stated, and narrow on purpose: this agency adds no line of its own to what the companies charge. What they charge is broken out on prices, company by company. |
| Somebody answering at any hour | No | Somebody is here Mon, Tue, Thu, Fri 9 am to 5:30 pm, Wed to 7 pm Eastern. Outside that nobody is, and no page says otherwise. |
| Licensed and bonded | No | No travel agency is licensed in West Virginia at all, and no bond was ever purchased here. Search this site for a license number or a bond number and neither exists. |
| Registered seller of travel | No | Four states keep such a register: California, Florida, Hawaii and Washington State. This name is on none of them, no traveler money is held here, and no registration number is printed. |
| Industry accreditation | No | Nothing of the sort is held and no association badge appears here. Those organizations sell memberships; a license comes from a government, and none of them is one. |
| A price match | No | A match is a promise about a market this agency does not run. What it offers instead is the split: which company charges what, on every trip. |
| Flexible cancellation | No | There is no single rule to be flexible with. A four company trip has four rules, and they are printed separately for exactly that reason. |
| Offices in several states | No | One office, in Charleston. It books for travelers anywhere, which is a different sentence. |

Why the site is built round a number
Because the number is the thing that predicts everything a traveler actually cares about and nobody prints.
Sort by destination and you learn nothing you did not know. Sort by how many companies must agree and you learn how the trip cancels, where it will break, what a change costs, and whether you need an agency at all. On tier one, frequently not, and this site says so on the pages where it is true.
An office that will tell you not to use it on a quarter of its own catalog is making a claim that can be checked, which is the only kind worth making.
