Packing up and sending yourself of to Japan should be something of an exciting and dream like process but I ended up dreading any appointment I had with STA. I don't mind idle chit chat, but I always left feeling like a toddler. 'Are you alright mate? Is someone going to be looking for you?' They did do a lot of work for me and the travel costs seemed to be reasonable and as cheap as anywhere else, until they stung me with an international student card or something, which cost around £20 and was never used or asked for. read more

STA Travel - sta - Travel Agents Near Me - Brighton, BNH

Having recently booked a big trip at this branch of STA over numerous appointments, I feel well equipped to review their services! Initially I found the service friendly and helpful. I wasn't overly confidant that our travel agent knew her stuff...she didn't seem to have a great deal of knowledge about Central America, but her enthusiasm won me over nonetheless. And despite a lack of firsthand knowledge, she did give us leaflets and talked us through different options for the cheapest way to plan our route. When we dithered and changed our route, she was accommodating, though I did begin to feel her patience was waning when we refrained from making a hasty booking. Whatever...people have bad days and she was never rude to us at all, just a little snippy at times. And bearing in mind that her job involves booking other people's fun trips all day every day, I'm gonna cut her some slack! STA is the cheapest and probably the easiest way to book both single flights and multi-flight trips. If you're 25 or under, you get their young person's discount, which is ultimately why we chose to use them. However, most travel agents aren't as willing to research your trip options for you. It would have been much harder and time-consuming to figure out a route and timescale, had we not had STA's help. So, despite the fact that we didn't have the best travel agent, I would recommend STA, especially for students wanting to save money! read more

STA travel are responsible for giving me the best time of my life. When I was 18 I booked my ticket to Australia with this agent. The service was first class and the knowledge was different gravy (excellent). The staff share the same enthusiasm for travel and in most cases have first hand experience of your chosen destination. They work hard to get you the best deal and put no pressure on you to purchase straight away. They provide excellent value for money and gave me 6 months in Sydney - what's not to like! read more

STA Travel would be my first choice for advice and bookings when making a trip abroad. The staff possess an abundance of knowledge, are not persistently trying to sell packages that you don't want and offer great alternatives or suggestions to your trip. They actually seem like they want to help you get the best offer and are used to dealing with students with tight budgets. Snobbery is therefore avoided and you feel confident that you've got a good deal on your holiday. There are some great offers around, so keep your eyes open, or just pop in if you have a query: some of their responses can be quite inspirational. Go in with an open mind and you never know where you might end up. read more
