UK-based travel management company Key Travel has launched a
new Student Travel portal for those studying and working in higher education,
marking its entry into the student market. The portal allows students to access
flight discounts of between 2 and 5 per cent, increased flexibility and extra
baggage allowance. According to Key Travel, more than 22,000 university
students are currently signed up to its services and have been able to access
discounted fares since it was launched in August. Fourteen UK universities have
signed up for 24/7 access to the Student Travel portal, including the
University of Birmingham, the TMC said.
