LOW-INCOME TICKETS

We know times are hard! While we offer many volunteer opportunities in exchange for a free GA ticket, volunteer opportunities require doing 8 hours of shift work. If you're experiencing hardship but aren't down for 8 hours of volunteer work, we are willing to meet you halfway: You do 4 hours of volunteer work, in exchange for a VERY inexpensive GA ticket. If you're interested in this option, please get in touch using our Contact form at the bottom of the page and let us know what your situation is, and what kind of volunteer work you're willing to do.
