University Daily Kansan / Friday, April 29, 1988 GRADUATE 9B Vacation first, job second Some students take a pit stop before the rat race By Elaine Woodford Kansan staff writer Graduation might be the passage from carefree college life into the real world of work, but some KU students are pulled by the warmth of sunny beaches, the busy streets of the East Coast or the sophisticated glamour of Europe for a last fling before trudging off to the office. Steve Wanamaker, Leawed senior, and Tyler Cain, Des Peres, Mo. senior, on touring Europe before entering the work force. Wanamaker, who will begin working as a sales representative July 11, said he was looking for a chance to relax before he had to start work. Wanamaker's parents have been to Europe twice, and the trip was something they suggested. But Wanamaker said he never really thought about going to Europe, Cain, mentioned that he was looking for someone who wanted to go to Europe after graduation. Cain said that he'd never been to Europe but that after talking to a triend who had studied in Europe, he decided he wanted to go. "I want to take some time off before I have to worry about things like work and money," he said. Cain plans to continue looking for a job in the St. Louis area after he returns from Europe. Wanamaker and Cain plan to fly into Luxembourg and then travel by train through Europe on Eurail student passes. Sea cuba浇 off a tropical island will be the main activity for Doug Byers, Lawrence senior, after graduation in May. brown in blue. Byers and three friends will drive to Tampa, Fla., and then catch a plane to the Cayman Islands. Byers said the islands was a great place to scuba dive and see exotic fish. "It really isn't that expensive," he said. "We'll make it a lot of fun." byers said he wanted to do some traveling before he went to work. Ling before he went to work. "We'll be gone for two weeks before I have to come back and do real-life stuff," he said. Beth Winne, Overland Park senior plans to combine pleasure with work after graduation. Winne and three friends will visit Boston in June. But while they see all the historic sites, Winne said she will spend most of her job resumes and possibly interview. "It's the time in my life when if I'm going to do it, I'd better do it now." Winne, who has lived in the Kansas City area all her life, said she was excited about the possibility of finding a job in Boston. "I'd originally planned to go to Europe after I graduated, but for all the money I'd spend, I decided I'd rather go to Boston," she said. Berens said the lowest airfare for a single roundtrip ticket departing from Kansas City and landing in London was $722 if a customer left between June 1 and July 1. Airlines vary widely, depending on departure severity Berens, a travel consultant for Maupintour Travel Service, said she had started booking a large number of flights for KU students. But airfare rates aren't always a bargain. Many students also decide to see Europe by train and travel on a Eurail pass. A youth pass may be purchased by anyone under the age of 26 for $25 for one month or $420 for a two-month pass. Additional charges might apply for certain train routes. And don't forget to get your passport before you leave. A passport costs $25 and usually takes three weeks to be processed. U. S. tourists might have had great bargains shopping in European countries when the dollar was strong, but the devalued dollar has made it harder to buy them and other items. Byers said that although his trip to the Cayman islands would be relatively inexpensive because he was flying out of Tampa instead of Kansas City, his airfare was $175. Bereas told The New York Times that Nassau in the Bahamas was $221. Cost aside, the chance to relax seems to be the prime motivating force for a last vacation. "It's really my last chance to take a long vacation." Wanmaker said. "I'll be my dad's age before I build up enough vacation time for a trip like this." Travelers are making fewer complaints about airlines The Associated Press WASHINGTON — The consumer uprising by air travelers appears to be easing a bit as the 1988 summer travel season approaches. Complaints about airline service, though still coming to the Transportation Department at the rate of several thousand a month, have eased as airlines try to eliminate what irritates travelers the most. Under government pressure, the major air carriers have scheduled flights more realistically, eased the bunching of flights around busy travel times, and cannelled additional manpower and money into dealing with them. "Much of the confusion and inconvenience is behind us now," said Stephen Hayes, vice president for public information at the Air Transport Association, the airline group. the group. Hayes acknowledged past problems but suggested in a recent speech that the airlines were determined to provide better service. Cornish Hitchcock, legal affairs director for the Aviation Consumer Action Project, a public interest group that keeps tabs on aviation issues and has been critical of the industry, also suggested that the worst consumer problems in aviation might be over. At least, he said, there might not be the indifference to the plight of passengers that marked 1987, as far as many of the major air carriers were concerned. "I'm not sure you can declare victory yet," said Hitchcock, adding that the test was likely to come as the busy summer travel season begins. For millions of people who travel by air, 1987 often became a nightmare. In June, the Transportation Department received as many complaints about air travel as it had received in the previous five months. Members of Congress began talking of re-regulating the industry, and on more than one occasion, unruly passengers stormed a ticket counter because a flight had been canceled or because they faced long delays. The turmoil and pressure from Congress caused the Transportation Department to get tough with the airlines. They were told to stop scheduling flights unrealistically, knowing that delays would result. And in a major change, the airlines were told that beginning in September, they had to make detailed reports to the government about their on-time performance as well as complaints about mishandled bags and problems with overbooking. But travelers so far have not used the information on a wide-scale basis, according to travel agents. Furthermore, some critics have argued that the information is of minimal value because often, a traveler has little choice After six months of such reports, it became clear that even in a good month, about one-fifth of the flights by 14 major airlines were likely to be late. The airlines' worst performance came last October, when one-third of the flights were late. tion. Today, the on-time record of each flight can be provided by a travel agent or airline reservation clerk through the reservation computer. A code shows how often a flight has been on time in the previous month, although a customer normally must ask for the informa- Many members of Congress want more detailed consumer reporting by the airlines, but consumer legislation aimed at the airlines has been bogged down in a dispute over testing airline employees for drugs. Airline opposition is strongest regarding provisions in pending legislation that would require the Transportation Department and airlines to provide toll-free telephone lines for consumer complaints, provide free tickets for lost baggage, require that tickets be refundable and require airlines to establish a minimum time for flights. These provisions, if approved, would force the cutback of service and harm consumers, the airlines have argued.
