Travel assistance
The UCLA Travel Center is offering to assist customers who are traveling during the heightened terrorism alert and must deal with changes in security procedures enacted after British authorities uncovered a plot to detonate liquid explosives onboard multiple commercial airlines.
More than 100 business-related trips between London and Los angeles were scheduled through the UCLA Travel Center to take place over the next few weeks, said manager Belinda Borden.
Several customers have changed their travel plans. Agents e-mailed 14 UCLA passengers who were set to fly that route from Aug. 10-Aug. 17 to find out if they needed an help to get to their destinations.
“As we said after 9/11, travel is going to be different from now,” Borden said. “It’s just not going to be the same anymore.”
