Teamster Vacations is the official travel benefit network for the International Brotherhood of Teamsters; a unique partnership between the IBT and JourneyPad (formerly nuTravel, Inc.), designed to provide IBT members, employees and their friends and families with online and offline (live travel agents) leisure travel benefits!
Virtuous Cycle
For every booking through Teamster Vacations, the IBT receives a portion of profits to be used to generate income for other Teamster Privilege member benefit programs, including crisis and strike funds. This allows you, the member, to support your own union every time you travel, further enhancing the programs that you enjoy as a Teamster!
As bookings continue to increase month by month, JourneyPad is able to take these mass-statistics to travel vendors and suppliers and negotiate even better deals for IBT members! The more you travel, the more you save.
Teamster Vacations allows you to effortlessly book flights, hotels, vacation packages, cruises and vacations both online and offline, while taking advantage of our Best Price Guarantee; that’s right—we guarantee that you’ll get the best price, every time you shop for travel with us. Now that is something you won't find anywhere else!
For the community, by the community
Even more, TeamsterVacations.com is an unbiased outlet for IBT members to communicate online about everything from travel destinations to union issues, leisure activities to political views; raising awareness throughout the membership on the issues that matter most to the community, utilizing the internet as the fastest and highly effective means of reaching all generations of Teamsters.
Easy and Secure
Want to book online? No problem! Our simple interface and advanced encryption technology keeps your information safe and secure, giving you peace of mind as you plan your next trip. Your information will never be shared or sold to any third parties, ever.
As one of the newest additions to the "Teamster Privilege" Member Benefits program, we are trying to educate the membership about this unique program.
Teamster Vacations is wide-open to the public, meaning that ANYONE who is interested in shopping for travel via a socially-responsible service can simply go to TeamsterVacations.com and get started! They can voice their opinions on travel, union matters, workplace issues...you name it, all while supporting their hard-working families and friends.
