Our Purpose

We at Suburban Worldwide Travel Agency want you to be treated as we would want members of our own family to be treated when they plan their vacation and corporate travel.

To that end, Suburban Worldwide Travel Agency belongs to the American Society of Travel Agents (ASTA) because we believe in the principles of ASTA's code of ethics and guidelines. We insist on competence, fair dealing and high integrity.

What this means to you is that we will always work with your best interests at heart and that we will strive to provide the best and most memorable tour, cruise and vacation experience possible.

Special Services Suburban Worldwide Travel Provides

As the industry grows more competitive, travel agencies increase the quality and type of services they offer. Suburban Worldwide Travel (SWT) can arrange all types of domestic and international travel, from hotel and resort accommodations to air and ground transportation, including car rental needs and tour packages.

We provide assistance with insurance protection, passport and visa applications, inoculation procedures and other foreign travel requirements. We have a toll-free phone number and offer meeting planning and incentive travel services.

SWT maintains individual profiles that include the client's frequent flier number, airline seating preference, smoking or non-smoking designation, and other specifications for a custom designed trip.

Arrangements can also be tailored to suit business and vacation objectives, personal interests and budget concerns.

Even with the brave new world of the Internet, travel agents are the leading distributors of travel products and services. Agents book 80 percent of all air travel, 30 percent of all hotel reservations and 95 percent of all cruise reservations. Agents are the only unbiased professionals who can sort through nearly 100,000 daily changes in airfares. Experience, constant industry interaction and computer reservations systems make travel agents the only source savvy enough to engineer a relaxing trip out of the fluctuating complexities of travel offerings.
