The president of Harvard Student Agencies said yesterday that the agency is close to arranging at least two round-trip jet charters to London this summer for about $150.
Andrew P. Tobias '68 said HSA has already confirmed that it will have a $149 round-trip jet charter to London this Spring for alumni.
Tobias explained that the Spring flight and the promised summer flights had come about through a fluke in airline regulations. He declined to name the airline, other than to say it was a major line, saying he was afraid other charter groups would storm the airline for similar rates.
HSA had six charter flights to Europe last summer, two of which cost $199 round-trip. The HSA board directors met Wednesday and decided to give refunds of approximately $10 to the 600 passengers aboard the four more expensive flights, which ranged in price from $39 to $79. The voted rebates were based on a surplus of about $6000 on last summer's operation.
