ASTC Travel Passport Program Participants May 1, 2011 to October 31, 2011 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. Each museum has its own admissions policy (denoted by “F:”) which lets your members know which and how many family members receive free admission when they visit. For the restrictions below, 90 miles/145 km is measured “as the crow flies” and not by driving distance. PROGRAM RESTRICTIONS 1. Based on participants’ location: Science centers/museums located within 90 miles (145 km) of each other are excluded from the Travel Passport Program unless that exclusion is lifted by mutual agreement. 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: Travel Passport Program benefits do not apply to those members whose principal place of residence is within a participating science center’s or museum’s local market area. In other words, to receive Travel Passport Program benefits, your members must live more than 90 miles (145 km) away from the center/museum they 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 (IDs). Forty-five participants enforce the residency restriction. ALABAMA U.S. Space & Rocket Center Anniston Museum of Natural History One Tranquility Base, Huntsville, AL 35807-7015 P.O.
