Travel tax to go on Thursday?
Since Budget night 1976, I New Zealand overseas travellers have paid approx. ($40,000,000 in travel tax. All collected free of charge ot ! the Government by travel agents and airlines. It hasn’t really stopped I anyone travelling, it’s just ' made it more expensive. But, because it’s money for I nothing, it’s 10 to 1 odds [ that it will still be with us ion Friday morning. i However, there are ways to compensate for that nasty 10 per cent and the best one is to make absolutely sure you pay the least money for what you want to do, and this can take a lot of time and trouble. At Ambassador Travel it’s no trouble and our time is available free of charge. You will be dealing with a totally independent owner-oper-ated travel agency and we give completely unpredjudiced opinions on all tours and travel services available, plus top personal service. If you want the best price first, remember, Ambassador Travel, 181 A Manchester Street, Phones 62-656 or SO--785. —Advertisement
