Frequently Asked Questions
This trip is organised by the Students' Union, equating to very low prices, great value and organisation you can trust!
1. I have friends who want to come on this trip but who are not students at Cardiff University. What should they do?
They can either buy the non-member ticket in their own right, or they can purchase 'associate membership' of CU Pride society. They can do this through the CU Pride page of the cardiffstudents.com website.
2. Is this trip suitable for children/families? Is there a reduced rate for children?
No - children are not permitted on this trip. Although the Students' Union are planning future trips with a set number of family rooms and exploring other options that would make our trips more inclusive for families and young children, this Society trip isn't suitable for them.
3. I'm having trouble signing up online. What do I do?
It is also possible to pay in person at the finance office of the Students' Union.
4. What is the deadline for this trip?
There is no specific deadline for this trip, though there are only a limited number of tickets available.
