Nation1 Travel alliances
This page contains Nation1's travel needs, and details of potential travel sponsorships.
Needs
Although based primarily on the Internet, Nation1 has a wide range of real-life travel needs to:
- promote Nation1 at youth events
- allow youth volunteers to meet in person for focused work.
- attend conferences and build connections/partnerships
- participate in and assist our partner organisations' operations
- facilitate Nation1 board meetings.
Thus, we are looking for:
- International airline travel
- Domestic airline travel
- Accomodation
In our first two years of operation, we would envisage our total needs to involve:
- 5 round the world flights
- 40 intra USA flights (ie. from LA to NYC or NYC to Boston)
- 50 international flights (ie. from Sydney to LA or NYC to Beijing)
(all are return flights)
- 400 nights budget hotel accomodation
Airlines:
A sponsorship with one fo the major alliances such as Oneworld or Star Alliance would be best, giving Nation1 maximum flexibility and options. Letters have already been sent to United Airlines (Star) and American Airlines (Oneworld).
