With $25 or $50 gift cards, our guests are able to purchase meals while en route to reunite with their families during their 40-60 hour bus ride. Since guests are turned away at airports, a 4 hour flight is now a multi-day trip.
Tracfones and unlimited 30 day plan cards allow our guests to stay connected to their families during those multi-day bus rides. Recently, most buses have had significant delays or no wifi.
Electrolyte drinks help our guests deal with dehydration they experience coming out of GEO, especially now as temperatures rise.
