RANSPORTATION to Europe
runs the gamut from orchids,
perfume and portal to portal car-
peting to the eight-day student
steamship.
Airline and steamship companies
both offer a variety of accomoda-
tions to satisfy both the highly
discriminate and the more budget-
minded foreign adventurers.
FOR THE complete red carpet
treatment, a trwveler might
take Trans World Airline's "Am-
bassador," Air France's "Golden
Parisian" or a plane like Pan
American's "President's Special."
First class round-trip air serv-
ice from New York City to Shan-
non, Ireland the nearest European
point runs $667.80 and more in
season, however, as contrasted to
$469.80 round-trip tourist class,
THE MAIN differences between
tourist and first class are the
number of stops, seating arrange-
ments and types of meals. The
same aircraft is used in both
classes.
Although steamships offer no
reduction on a round-trip ticket,
air line service is about 10 per cent
less on a round trip basis. Air
tickets can also be bought on a
time-payment plan.
Off-season tickets are available
from Nov. 1 through March 31,
but travelers must leave and re-
turn within that period and must
purchase a round-trip ticket. The
off-season tourist rate is $429.80
round-trip, New York City to
Shannon.
STEAMSHIP travel generally in-
cludes three classes on the same
ship, although there are some
student ships that run almost en-
tirely tourist class.
First class steamship-style'places
the same emphasis on luxury as
first class via air.
One way passage on the Queen
Elizabeth, the largest commercial
steamer (83,673 tons, with the
Queen Mary second at 81,235 and
the United States third at 53,300)
runs $380 from New York to South-
hampton during the summer sea-
son.
FACILITIES and prices become
less in the lower classes, with
cabin class running at $235 and
tourist at $187 on the same sailing.
The summer travel season runs
from April 16 through August 4,
and from July 2 through October
20. During the .off-season, or
"thrift season," rates run 10 to 15
dollars less,
BOERSMA TRAVEL SERVICE

Now is the time to apply for steamship
accommodations for the summer of 1957.
