Nations Classroom Blog

Since this Covid-19 Pandemic began in the United States back in March, we've all been asking the same questions.

What will travel safety look like going forward? Will travel be safe again in the future? What will tour operators like NationsClassroom be doing to keep students safe while traveling?

The Student and Youth Travel Association, in partnership with The Center for Student Travel Safety, has developed a travel safety certification program designed to introduce the "first-of-its-kind operational and safety standards to the student group travel industry, in an effort to enhance the overall safety of travel." 

The following list is not intended to be exhaustive.  This week we are featuring safety standards for Motorcoach Travel.

In their newest fall issue, Teach & Travel magazine interviewed American Bus Association (ABA) President & CEO Peter Pantuso about the benefits of traveling by motorcoach.

The New Year has brought new changes to the D.C. parking scene, which is good news for our tour groups traveling via motorcoaches.  Did you know that according to the National Park Service, 1,200 motorcoaches arrive each day in D.C. during peak travel season.  Luckily for our student tour groups, traveling D.C. by motorcoach just got easier.
