Student travel agencies are beginning to actively court nonstudents and older travelers, extending their low prices to the not-so-youthful set. Though it has quietly offered discounts to nonstudents for years, STA Travel began actively promoting “flights for everyone” on its home page late last year, highlighting sales and negotiated discounts available to travelers of any age, like round-trip flights from Los Angeles to Sydney from $798 or New York to London from $476.

For those of you looking to travel soon, look into some of the student rates that are being offered to those of us that have lived well beyond our student years  — We have used STA travel personally. One of our friends works there in So Cal and he has booked trips for us. See if it helps you get a bargain!
