American Forces Travel
American Forces Travel? is a new Morale, Welfare, and Recreation (MWR) program arising from a joint-service initiative combining the efforts of each of the five branches of service (Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, and Navy) and the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Military Community & Family Policy.
Because the internet is now the most popular way to research and book travel, the Department of Defense chose to evolve its travel offering. MWR has contracted with a world leader in travel, Priceline®, to deliver high-value travel benefits to the U.S. military and DoD community. A key feature of American Forces Travel? is pricing. Priceline® negotiates rates that are typically only available alongside “hidden” features: you can book a hotel room on Priceline® at a discount, for example, if you do so without knowing the name of the hotel upfront. American Forces Travel? goes a step further. Those negotiated rates are available on American Forces Travel? with full visibility to eligible members. It’s the best of both worlds.
While there are many for-profit online leisure travel offerings marketed to the military today, American Forces Travel is the only official DoD online program. American Forces Travel? proceeds will support MWR programs for the military community.
American Forces Travel? provides free access to the site for those who have served their country at AmericanForcesTravel.com
