Our Framework
The Three Pillars
of Travel.
Unlimited travel opportunities, organized around the way our travelers actually live and travel. Choose the pillar that fits the journey you have in mind.
Every journey we plan falls under one of three pillars. Together, they cover every kind of travel a guest could want — without ever asking us to be the agency we are not.
49%
of our workPillar 01 — Feature Travel
An annual select group of truly unique, personally-escorted travel experiences. Travelers are taken with a personal host from Please Go Away™ Vacations throughout — not sent on their own. Each is an intentionally-limited departure, with multiple additional features included in the single price paid: 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 require components to be added at considerable expense, a Feature Travel price includes everything referenced in the brochure. There are no hidden charges and no unexpected expenses.
Every Feature Travel reservation is protected by our exclusive Reservation Deposit Refund Guarantee: cancel for any reason and receive a cash refund of your deposit (less any tour-operator administrative fee), paid directly from our offices. Early reservations are encouraged — reservation books typically close six to eight months prior to departure.
49%
of our workPillar 02 — As You Like It Travel
For independent-minded travelers, couples, and families who prefer their own destinations, timing, and pace. Through unlimited comparisons of every program from quality cruise lines, resorts, and travel companies, we assure our guests of the best available price.
There are no extra charges for our service. The value lies in our expertise — and in knowing that the price you’d pay anywhere else is the price you pay through us, with a person on the other end of the phone before, during, and after every journey.
- Ideal for individuals, couples, families, and groups of friends.
- Captures every available promotional saving, bonus, past-passenger benefit, and perk.
- Applies to every quality cruise line, travel company, tour operator, and resort of which you may be aware.

of our workPillar 03 — Private Label Travel
Specially-arranged travel experiences personally hosted by individuals connected with our Preferred Partners — organizations and individuals who promote these journeys initially to their friends and constituents.
A small but meaningful share of our work, and one of the most rewarding: alumni associations, community concert associations, and other partners building journeys for the people they care about. Special savings flow to the members; matching contributions flow back to the organization.
Three of our Preferred Organizations have their own dedicated programs on this site:
