Hello Gorilla Nation!

The Pittsburg State University Alumni Association is continuing to expand the amounts and types of benefits provided to our constituents. Our specially-crafted travel program is a major component of those benefits — whether you travel on your own or with a group, it provides unlimited availability and saves you both time and money.

In cooperation with Please Go Away™ Vacations — a Kansas-based, full-service travel company founded in 1966 specializing in personally-arranged experiences across all seven continents — we offer two unique travel programs of exceptional quality and value. Their services are at no extra cost to you.

  • Special PSU savings. Available to all persons with any affiliation (past or present) with the University.
  • On top of every other perk. Savings layered onto every other discount or benefit already in place.
  • Extends to your whole party. Members or not — your traveling companions are covered.
  • And the Alumni Association benefits, too. Matching monetary contributions flow back to the Association.
Program 01

Feature Travel — Personally Escorted, Everything Included

Personally-escorted, value-added group Feature Travel experiences from Please Go Away™ Vacations. Each is an intentionally-limited departure with multiple additional features included in the single price: roundtrip air from Wichita (other departure cities available) and travel protection against cancellations and other unforeseen circumstances, in place through the completion of the tour.

Unlike competing programs that add components at considerable expense, a Feature Travel price includes everything referenced in the brochure. No hidden charges. No unexpected expenses.

Current Feature Travel departures with remaining availability — each with a detailed four-page brochure — are on our All Tours page. Reservation books typically close six to eight months before departure; early reservation deposits are urged.

Program 02

As You Like It Travel — Independent, Anywhere, Anytime

Association savings also extend to every program of financially stable and reputable cruise lines, travel companies, tour operators, and resorts worldwide. There are no extra charges for our service — full-time travel professionals are present before, during, and after your travels.

  • Ideal for individuals, couples, families, and groups of friends.
  • Captures every available promotional saving, bonus, past-passenger benefit, and perk — with PSU savings layered on top.
  • Applies to every quality cruise line, travel company, tour operator, and resort — including past-passenger offers.

For an introduction to the thousands of possibilities, browse the PSU Brochure Rack — more than 30 racks and almost 500 brochures from major cruise lines, tour operators, and resorts.
