Located at the Oasis Community Center, ITT offers all base personnel discounts on tickets, tours, trips and television tapings. "ITT is a base necessity," said Terry Stegman, 95th Force Support Squadron marketing director. "There are so many places to go in Southern California, and through us, Team Edwards can get discounts to those places." Savings vary depending on where people want to travel, Ms. Stegman said. Customers can expect to receive savings between $5 and $20. "We offer hotel discounts and tickets to almost every attraction in Southern California," said Sandra Davis, ITT director. "We are willing to help people put together an eventful weekend trip that's affordable." The attractions offered through ITT include Knott's Berry Farm, Legoland, Catalina Island, the San Diego Zoo, Universal Studios, Sea World and Disneyland. Additionally, ITT is a member of many military discount travel clubs. This allows the base to go online for discounts. "Our base is a part of many discount travel associations such as the Armed Forces Travel Club," Ms. Stegman said. "By getting our base code and signing up on their Web site, people can receive great deals." The discounts aren't the only beneficial aspect through ITT, Ms. Davis said. "By going to ITT we offer tickets that may cost as much as online, but we are usually able to get extra amenities that enhance their travel experience." Ms. Davis said. "What we offer is a great opportunity for all people to explore the area around us." The ITT counter is open Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Saturdays, from noon to 5 p.m. For more information about Information Tickets and Travel, call 275-8747.
