On the Long Haul

The difference between coming off a 14 hour flight dragging or rearing to go is simple. It is how you prepare for it.

All of us are experienced Globe Trotters and we know that being prepared makes all the difference. The pre-trip orientations are great, but you need to have the basics to make getting there as much fun as being here.

Carry a Personal Comfort Kit with a pillow, a sleep mask, earplugs, lotions, and personal toiletry items. Grab a blanket and pillow as you get onboard.

Dress for comfort on the flight. Comfortable clothes and shoes. Nothing tight, but easy to move around in. Bring a possible change of clothing to arrive fresh.

Plan your own entertainment with cd's, mp3's, games and books.

Move around on the plane. Stretch at your seat and in the aisles. Do not be stagnant.

Drink plenty of fluids, avoid alcohol (Yes, Gene wrote this one). You can bring your own bottled water and snacks. Adjust yourself to the time at your final destination.

Enjoy the flight and the opportunity to develop your friendships. Rest on the flights and be ready to go when the plane arrives.

Egypt with a surprise!!! Athens

We are all back from the V-103 Ultimate Road to Freedom - Egypt, the Nubian Experience. What a great trip and a magnificent country.

We kicked off the trip with the addition of Athens. This allowed all to see the differences and similarities of Egypt and Greece. In both, we saw the history of civilization dating back more then 5000 years. In Egypt with Lake Nassar now open, we experienced cruising the lake all the way to famous Abu Simbel. The giant statues and temples awed all of us.

We toured hard, partied hard and left the typical positive impression of The Ultimate Road to all we met. All replys from Egypt have been how much fun we were and they hope to have other group like ours. We will remeber Egypt and Egypt will remeber us.

The picture party is coming soon and we all look forward to sharing our memories of this historical trip.

Queen Mary 2

The WHUR QM2 trip has finished and all had a great time. What a great ship. The QM2 is all it is said to be and much more. No matter what the destination, the ship is the trip. On the QM2 it is a crossing, not a cruise. No ship is as large, as luxurious or offers so much.

Advantage International, LLC is proud to offer the QM2 and Cunard as a travel option for our friends. If you want to see what we are all talking about, call our office at 1-877-ADVNTGE. We can book your individual or group trip on the QM2 with some of the best prices available.
