Travel Arrangements: The travel agent that used to help our groups book their flights has retired.  So you may know a good travel agent to assist you or I have found https://www.google.com/flights/  a very helpful site.

Ciganka will be ready for boarding at 2:00 on Friday and your departure should be by 12:00 noon the following Thursday.  These times can be a bit flexible but we ask that you keep that in mind as you schedule your flights.
