Applications/deposits hand-delivered to the trip leader or sent via US mail with a postmark May 7-14, 2024 will have equivalent eligibility in the event that any trip is over-subscribed and a lottery becomes necessary. Your SSC membership must be current to sign up for a trip. Trip pricing, applications and trip terms will be available on this website and through your trip leaders very soon.
TRIP SIGNUP PROCEDURE FOR THE 2024-2025 SEASON

PLEASE COMMIT EARLY TO AVOID THE CANCELLATION OF THESE TRIPS
The contracts we have this year are very stringent in their deadlines which requires us to have a certain number of participants by unusually early dates. If we must cancel a trip by the due date because of lack of participation, we are still responsible for paying cancellation fees to the hotel, tour operator or airlines. Please commit early, so your club does not have to absorb these fees and so these trips can proceed as planned.
TRAVEL INSURANCE IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED Attention trip participants, especially in light of recent unforeseen events, it is the responsibility of each participant to secure their own insurance based on their individual needs. If you have a pre-existing condition, most insurance companies require you to obtain insurance within two weeks from the date you made your trip deposit (this may vary among insurance companies).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THOSE ON THE IRELAND TRIP: ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorization System) UPDATE The initiation of the ETIAS has been postponed until January 2025. We will keep you updated if anything changes.
REAL ID IN PENNSYLVANIA The Real ID enforcement deadline has been extended until May 7, 2025. Beginning then, Pennsylvanians will need a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license, photo ID card, or another form of federally-acceptable identification (such as a valid passport or military ID) to board a domestic commercial flight.
