Travel

All Star Academy now has a travel website:
http://allstaracademy.rovia.com

We have done this for two reasons:

  1. To simplify travel arrangements for the teams. Rovia is a travel service, like expedient or Travelocity, where you can go online to search for the least expensive flights, accommodations or cars that suit your needs.
  2. To start a revenue stream for our future scholarship program. Currently the online travel services that you use to book your travel get a service fee from hotels and car rental agencies. These fees will now go to an ASA scholarship account.

 

There are some advantages over other services:

  1. Southwest flights are listed with the other airlines
  2. Prices are less at least 80% of the time (by personal research)
  3. You can keep frequent flyer / rewards accounts on site
  4. There's a concierge that answers questions while you are on your trip about any aspect (restaurants, amusements, homework, etc). 1st 30 minutes is free.
  5. There is an on-line chat service to ask questions when booking
