Description

This contract provides comprehensive, all‑inclusive travel services for Illing Middle School’s Washington, D.C. field trip.

The award was made to Destinations Unlimited after an open competition. The contract is initially for the 2018‑2019 school year with an option to extend up to two additional years, and payment is made on a firm‑fixed‑price, all‑inclusive basis after successful completion. • Full‑service school‑group travel (transport, lodging, meals, guides, security) • Mandatory on‑site staff (tour director, licensed guides) and parent‑meeting support • High‑limit insurance requirements and compliance forms required

Contract value

$360,000

The RFP calls for 215‑400 students plus chaperones over a three‑day trip. Assuming an average of 300 participants and an all‑inclusive cost of roughly $1,200 per student (covering coach, hotel, meals, guide, security, insurance, and gratuities), the total contract value would be about $360,000. Adjustments for lower or higher headcounts, different hotel grades, or optional insurance could shift the amount by ±$50,000, but a mid‑range estimate of $350‑$400 K is reasonable.
