New travel agency offers service
ro defense force members, families
Members of the defense force and their dependents now have another
travel agency. Its opening program includes a trip to Amsterdam
over the July 4 weekend.
The trip will be by DC-6B and will depart at 5 p.m. on July 2 and
return at midnight, July 5. The
cost of $142 per person includes
the round trip air fare; hotel
room, based on double occupancy;
breakfast; round trip transporta-
tion between the hotel and the
airport and free drinks during
the five hour flight.
Arrangements have been already
made for the charter of the air-
craft. Bookings will be accepted
immediately by calling Mr. Geary
at 9-2201 in Keflavik between 1-5
p.m. weekdays.
Since it is necessary for a
minimum of 70 persons for the
trip, the agency will not ask for
a deposit until the required num-
ber of bookings have been received.
The "go or no go" decision will
be made on June 4 unless the mini-
mum number of bookings has been
reached earlier, in which case
the decision is automatically
"go." If the decision is "go",
a non-refundable deposit of $30
will be required before June 11
and the balance on or before June
18. A constantly updated record
of bookings will be kept and will
be available to anyone wishing to

a 12-day vacation tour split be-
tween Copenhagen and London from
$238. The price of these trips
includes hotel with breakfast and
transportation by scheduled jet
aircraft. There is no minimum
number of people needed and the
trips can be scheduled at conve-
nience since this is not by char-
ter.
Other trips can be arranged on
request to most European coun-
tries and Tunisia. Charter buses
for a minimum of eight persons
can be arranged for travel in
Iceland. An air taxi service is
also being made available for
