Minneapolis,
MN – October 2021 / Newsmaker Alert / As
Veterans Day approaches, Jefferson
Lines is incredibly excited to announce its Seventh
Annual Free Veterans Day Travel program for all veterans and active
duty military members. Since 2015, it has been a company tradition to provide
free motorcoach transportation to hundreds of military men and women across
the country to thank them for their time in uniform.
“This
opportunity is just one small way to show our appreciation for our service
men and women,” said Steve Woelfel, President and CEO of Jefferson Lines.
“Now, as we near the two-year mark of the COVID-19 pandemic, a trip home
means all the more to our passengers, and we want to show our support for
our veterans and active-duty military by making it possible for them to
travel home to their loved ones during the holidays.”
With
over 100 years to its credit, Jefferson Lines has a long history of supporting
military members. During WWII, the company provided key transportation
to draftees heading to basic training – with one in ten of their own employees
serving at the frontlines. Today, the company provides year-round discounted
travel to military members and charter service to military arriving home
from deployment.
The
Free Veterans Day Travel Program is open to all military members – past
and present – who serve or have served in any branch of the military. To
participate in this program, veterans and active duty military members
must visit a qualifying Jefferson Lines location (below) and present a
valid DD 214 or military ID along with personal identification (driver’s
license, etc.). One-way or roundtrip travel can be booked anytime November
1 through November 11, 2021 at 11:59 p.m. for trips to take place from
November 11 through November 24, 2021 (if a roundtrip ticket is
