  • I found this story on the New York times and thought I would share.

    ON one of my very first business trips, I was fortunate enough to have my wife accompany me to Paris. We were young and didn’t have a lot of money. So this was an incredible treat. My son was only 3 months old, and since he was nursing, he came along, too.

    One of the things that I always do when I travel — even back then — is to make sure that I have everything in order. I checked with our travel agent and the airline, and was told that as long as we had our son’s original birth certificate, he didn’t need a passport.

    When we got to the airport in Boston, the airline refused to board us on their Paris flight. I was told my son needed a passport.

    What most people don’t know is that small childeren DO need passports and by the time they realize it the process and money it takes to obtain one is costly. A passport typically takes 6 weeks to process with standards fee, but should you need one expidted say within 2 weeks then the cost does rise quite a bit. Don’t let this happen to you and plan ahead, here at Ambassador Passport and Visa we know the strains and stress of travel, we have been helping folks for over 20 years with their passport and visa needs.

    We are here to assist you and will gladly take care of all the paper work necessary to fulfill your travel needs.

  • According to BuisniessTravel.com

    British Airways claimed at the Guild of Travel Management Companies autumn conference in London on Monday that it is winning back passengers from domestic United Kingdom rail competitors owing to rising rail fares. Virgin Trains chief executive Tony Collins conceded at the same conference that fares are increasing because of rising demand and limited capacity, and warned capacity problems could deter business travelers.

    Virgin Trains competes for corporate business with BA primarily on London-Manchester and, to a lesser extent, on London-Glasgow. BA head of sales & marketing for the U.K. & Ireland Richard Tams told the conference: “Corporate clients are putting us back in their policy because the price of rail has become so expensive.” In response Collins said: “If there is not enough supply for the level of demand, prices tend to go up. Sixty percent of our fares are regulated by the government, so we only have 40 percent to flex around demand. We are running out of capacity. We will reach the point where rail travel will become unattractive unless we get more capacity over the next three to four years. There is standing room only some days.”

    With the holidays approaching soon we know travel will be hectic and stressful. If you are planning on any holiday travel make sure to have all of your documents in line. Here at Ambassador Passport and Visa we want to make your travel as easy as possible. Make sure that your Passport and Visas are all in line before making any plans.

  • According to About.com

    The US Department of Homeland Security, perhaps not unexpectedly, proposed a change in passport rules affecting minor student travelers which is now in effect: while those over 18 must begin presenting passports at land and sea border crossings between Mexico, Canada, the Caribbean, Bermuda and the US in 2009, 15-under U.S. citizen children are to be exempt from the new requirement and are allowed to present ID and the original or copy of their birth certificate, or other proof of U.S. citizenship such as a naturalization certificate or citizenship card, and 16-18 year olds will be exempt (and able to present ID and proof of citizenship instead of passports) if traveling with public or private school groups, religious groups, social or cultural organizations or teams associated with youth athletics organizations and under adult supervision. Children over 16 must have passports or PASS cards or enhanced driver’s licenses.

    Currently (and historically), US citizens under 18 may cross land and sea borders to and from the affected countries while bearing only a government-issued ID (like a driver’s license) and proof of citizenship (like a US birth certificate) but must carry passports for air travel entry into the US. US territories are exempted from new passport rules that became effective January 23, 2007 requiring passports from those traveling by air.

    The proposed teen passport exemption will eventually be open for public comment as part of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative at www.regulations.gov.

    If you’re way under 18, like under 14, then read up on what to do (with your parents) on the US government’s passport site.

    At Ambassador Passport and Visa Inc. we can provide fast and easy process to get you your passport when you need it. We have over 20 years of experience processing and renewing U.S Passports we also provide expedited services for with a same day passport option.
