Anthony Travel

A unit of Anthony Travel has agreed to work with MSU Club Sports on booking travel. Here are the details:

One key person organizes all of your travel
Anthony Travel specializes in group travel, therefore they have great agreements with all of the airlines.
They can do group discounts for a minimum of 6 people on 5 of the major airline carriers. 100% payment would be required for these types of groups (under 10 w/ minimum of 6). Groups under 10, minimum of 6, must be 100% utilized for these types of groups. In other words, if you hold a group under 9-6 people, you must use all of those seats or you will be penalized 100% of the cost of the ticket plus any utilization penalties the airline charges us also, if you cancel at any time, before or after ticketing.
They have the flexibility to change names on tickets up to 72 hours in advance, so if someone is injured and can no longer travel, you can send someone else in their place! There may be name change fees incurred by 75% of the airlines, depending on whether we have to physically reissue the ticket or not.
They have experience working with athletic teams and will help you to have flexibility in your tournament weekend.
They can hold space for your group on an airline without payment or names of passengers 7-60 days before departure depending on the airline.
Since we have no contract with them, there is a $25 per ticket fee to cover their costs. If you will be using 2 different airlines that is a multi ticket and the fee will be $25/ticket. If your club is interested in booking a flight with Anthony Travel, please contact:
