Last week, we reviewed some of our members’ favorite offers for the back to school shopping season. Today we want to continue our coverage as it relates to travel.

For eighteen years, Greyhound Bus has been a great travel benefit for us, especially for children of Veterans Advantage members, transitioning military and leisure travelers.

With an exclusive 10% OFF when you show your VetRewards Card, you can look to Veterans Advantage for the convenience and savings of getting on a Greyhound Bus whenever you need to. And for students, we’re talking about commuting back home to see the parents on college weekends, or longer trips for Spring Break.

And if you were like me when I was in college, a road trip to see friends at another University was packed with memories that have lasted a lifetime. With our exclusive offers with Motel 6 and Red Roof Inn, we recognize your service with savings from value brand hotels from leading chains. The perfect way to travel for college students or families looking to visit their kids!
