Community Link's Relationship with Travelers Aid and Travelocity

Community Link began in 1929 as Travelers Aid Society of Charlotte and continues to be an affiliation of Travelers Aid International, which is an association representing a network of human service provider agencies in the United States, Canada, and Australia, whose mission is to assist individuals and families who are in transition, crisis, and disconnected from their support systems. The Travelers Aid movement began in 1851, and is most visible at airports, bus and train stations where last year Travelers Aid assisted more than six and one-quarter million people during the course of their journeys.

Travelers Aid's hotel-booking engine is powered by World Choice Travel (WCT), a member of the ASTA (American Society of Travel Agents) and IATAN (International Airlines Travel Agent Network). WCT is also registered as a seller of travel with the State of Florida - Fla. Seller of Travel Reg. No. ST34200. Our powerful hotel engine provides the widest selection of hotel accommodations throughout the world. This technology connects directly to the central reservations systems of hotels worldwide, resulting in better rate and room descriptions, and in many cases, a greater variety of rates. This arrangement translates into considerable savings. WCT is a division of Travelocity.com LP, a Sabre Holdings company. Sabre Holdings connects people with the world's greatest travel possibilities by retailing travel products and providing distribution and technology solutions for the travel industry. Headquartered in Southlake, Texas, the company has approximately 8,900 employees in 45 countries.
