Travel Discounts

USSF logistics coordinators have arranged a variety of travel discounts to Detroit.

 

  • Delta/Northwest is offering the following: 5% off full roundtrip fares and 2% off published discounted fares from Atlanta, Cincinnati, Memphis, Minneapolis, and Salt Lake City. These are “Hub” markets.  For non-Hub cities, the discount is greater: 7% reduction on regular flights, and 5% additional discounts on already discounted flights, roundtrip. At least 10 people have to be traveling from one or more city in this state, (don’t have to be traveling together). When booking reservations, use this Ticket Designator code:  NM5GC. You can’t do this on-line, so call: (800) 328-1111 when making reservations.

 

  • Southwest is offering a similar discount, but we have no Ticket Designator code to share. Contact the Group Rate Office at: (800) 433- 5368.

 

  • Spirit Airlines is offering a 10% discount off any published fare. The code to book online with Spirit is: UNITED.

 

  • Megabus is offering discounted rates from all the cities they service, to support attendees coming to the US Social Forum. The earlier tickets are secured, the cheaper.  Go to: Megabus.com if you have computer access, and make certain your city is on their service route. Call: (877) 462-6342 to book reservations.

 

  • Amtrak: We are in final negotiations with Amtrak and those discounts will appear within days, but they are unyielding so don’t expect much!

 

  • Greyhound: We are investigating discounts and will have more info soon.
