Travel and Accommodation — What to Expect
All travel costs associated with your placements are covered by Advantage Angels. Where a shift requires an overnight stay or is located further from your home address, we arrange and fully fund your accommodation — you will never be out of pocket for travel or lodging when working with us.
Our shift coordinators will always discuss travel and accommodation arrangements with you in advance of confirming any placement, so you know exactly what is covered and what to expect before you agree to a shift.
