ASTC Travel Passport Program Participants – November 1, 2012 to April 30, 2013
The Travel Passport Program entitles visitors to free GENERAL ADMISSION. It does not include free admission to special exhibits, planetarium and larger-screen theater presentations nor does it include museum store discounts and other benefits associated with museum membership unless stated otherwise. Acquaint yourself with the family admittance policies (denoted by “F:”) of Passport Program sites before visiting. Visit www.astc.org/passport for a list in larger type font.
PROGRAM RESTRICTIONS:
1. Based on your science center’s/museum’s location: Science centers/museums located within 90 miles of each other are excluded from the Travel Passport Program unless that exclusion is lifted by mutual agreement. 90 miles is measured “as the crow flies” and not by driving distance. Science centers/museums may create their own local reciprocal free-admission program. ASTC does not require or participate in these agreements, or dictate their terms. 2. Based on residence: To receive Travel Passport Program benefits, you must live more than 90 miles away “as the crow flies” from the center/museum you wish to visit. Admissions staff reserve the right to request proof of residence for benefits to apply. Science centers and museums requesting proof of residence are marked by (üIDs).
DON’T FORGET TO BRING YOUR MEMBERSHIP CARD!
Passport venues are not required to grant free admission to visitors who forget their cards. There is no universal database with all Passport visitors’ member data and expiration dates for admission staff to reference. Some venues will allow you to call the science center or museum you joined to confirm your membership, but they are under no obligation to do so.
I lost my membership card. How can I get another one?
Please contact the science center or museum which you joined. ASTC does not issue or administer membership cards.
CALL BEFORE YOU VISIT TO CONFIRM YOUR TRAVEL PASSPORT PROGRAM BENEFITS.
