Our Intern Abroad HQ team wants to make it easy to organize your internship program and travel experience. We’ve curated a list of trusted, affordable providers that you may access below for excellent service.
Discounted Flights with Skyscanner
If you’re planning to intern abroad and already have a destination in mind, or have at least narrowed down your top picks, understanding the cost of your flights will help you finalize your budget and make a decision about your internship.
To provide our interns with the most affordable flights, we’ve partnered with Skyscanner, the world-leading flight search tool, to offer discounted flights to Intern Abroad HQ interns traveling to any of our destinations.
Over 100 million people visit Skyscanner every month to book flights and once you’ve found the best flight, you book directly with the provider. We don’t add any extra fees!
When to book your flights
It is important you are registered (have paid your internship deposit) before paying for your flights, so you have your dates and location confirmed.
Travel Insurance
All interns participating on Intern Abroad HQ overseas internship programs are required to purchase comprehensive travel insurance cover.
Interning can include a range of activities that standard travel insurance or medical insurance policies might not cover. That’s why Intern Abroad HQ offers its own travel insurance cover for our interns that has been customized specifically for the types of claims you may need to make while traveling abroad with us.
