Note: You should book your airfare as soon as possible, since flights at the end and beginning of the year fill up fast. If you are in the United States, you may contact the march's recommended travel agency -- 3S International Travel Inc. in California at 3stravel@sbcglobal.net or +510-249-9333. Mention that you are participating in the Gaza Freedom March, since the agency is holding a block of seats for those dates. Even if you will be arriving earlier or staying longer, it often has competitive rates to offer. If you are from outside of the United States, you can use a variety of Web sites. Just search for "cheap flights."

If you want to stay longer in Gaza than the four days planned for the Gaza Freedom March: Visitors who are not part of a larger, "pre-approved" group often experience significant delays when trying to leave Gaza. Therefore, we will work to obtain approval from the Egyptian authorities for a second group of our delegation members to depart Gaza one week later, on Jan. 9. We will not plan an organized program for that extra week; however, you can connect with others who are staying later and plan joint activities if you wish. If you plan on staying this extra week, please contact Pam at peacenut57[at]yahoo.com.

While CODEPINK does have a good track record of getting into Gaza from the Egypt side (we have taken 6 delegations since February 2009), we cannot guarantee entry. If we cannot get in, we will organize an alternative program.

After you fill out the information below, you will be directed to a "delegates only" donation page where you can will be able to make your trip payment on our secure server or via check. Payment is due by Nov. 30 to confirm your place on the delegation.
