Kelly Bird
Kelly Bird, UWSP CE Administrative Assistant, has traveled with her family to places in California, Arizona, and Oregon. Now it is time to explore the east coast and see what the big city of New York has to offer. She is excited for the Broadway shows, walking among the skyscrapers, and trying that famous New York style pizza.
Price includes:
- Round-trip flight (Mosinee/Milwaukee/New York)
- Coach transfers between airport and hotel
- Lodging centrally located near Times Square/Broadway and subway lines (four nights double occupancy)
- Full breakfasts at the M Social Hotel New York
- Four Broadway Shows
- Private Coach City Tour
- Metro card for subway and buses
- Orientation meeting approximately two months before the trip
The price of the trip is $3,150 based on double occupancy. Your deposit will be applied to the total trip cost. If you require a single room, the cost is an additional $800.
A non-refundable deposit of $450 per person is required with your registration as we must book non-refundable airfare, hotel rooms, and theatre tickets.
Out-of-state travelers who make their own flight arrangements will receive a $400 discount (initial $450 deposit is still required).
Travelers may wish to explore purchasing traveler's insurance (researched and purchased by traveler – we cannot recommend any company).
- Traveling within New York City requires frequent walking and stairs. Please be prepared to walk up to a half a mile at a time. Walking several miles in a day is common but can be avoided via subways and taxis. Broadway theaters and New York subways often require some steep stairs. Most of the shows are approximately five blocks from our hotel.
- Travelers under age 21 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
- These trips frequently fill quickly, sometimes in less than 24-hours. We encourage you to act quickly to reserve your place.
- UWSP Continuing Education does not provide travel insurance, medical, or emergency evacuation and thus you are 100% responsible for these expenses. We strongly advise you purchase travel insurance as soon as possible after registering for a trip because some insurance providers only guarantee certain benefits within a short time after you make a travel deposit. We also advise carrying health insurance while on any tour as well.
- Travelers may want to consider short-term traveler's insurance that covers baggage, accident/life, trip interruption, trip cancellation, and more. Visit Travel Insurance Review to answer any of your travel insurance questions, get tips, and advice, or compare different providers.
Since UWSP makes financial commitments in advance, no refunds will be issued for cancellations less than 90 days prior to the trip. Cancellations received more than 90 days before the trip will receive a full refund minus $450. However, a substitute traveler is an option. Please email UWSP at uwspceweb@uwsp.edu with information on a cancellation or substitution.
