• Advanced customer service that exceeds industry standards. GIVE has a unique full-service 24/7 commitment to our travelers. We have a long, proud history of going above and beyond to ensure our travelers are not only safe while on our trips, but also during the travel process of arriving at our various destinations. We approach any issues or misfortunes with diligent, pragmatic care. This often leads us to exceed what would be considered “normal” customer service. Whether it’s helping first-time travelers navigate their layovers, working with concerned parents, or navigating a pandemic. It is who we are as an organization and as people. Simply put: we care.
