The world’s first (space) travel agency
Why can’t someone open a store where anyone can see the costs involved, and then pay to send their belongings or themselves out into space. There seems to be countless rockets launching nowadays, but no site where people with enough money can book their ride.
Currently, you have to shop around to see what is on offer, this article provides a few tips on where to start looking though,
Space Adventures have been in the game a long time now, but how many paying customers have they sent to space? Plus, the idea is about an agency not a broker or provider. Ie, somewhere you can see flights offered by multiple vendors.
No flight list on Virgin Galactic or SpaceX or Blue Origin. In most cases, you would likely just be faced with a form where you give them money and they send you marketing materials about how good it would be – hit “FLY WITH US” an you won’t see any departures list or reviews from happy customers. Slowly slowly catch a monkey.
Thanks ESA. Search their site and they have a page about space travel agencies, and yep – it’s a kids school project about how it would/could be – which indicates they are not quite there yet. lol.
Rocket Breaks claim to be a space travel agency – but nope, just a page full of marketing hype and no list of departures here. When will this finally happen for real?
