"Academy buses all of our Parade participants, from Maine to Virginia, to New York for the Parade. Academy makes sure that all of our Clowns, Float Escorts, and Balloon Handlers are ready to march by the time the Parade steps off. We couldn't do it without Academy!" -

“When NYC & Company, the official tourism marketing organization for New York City, hosted the Travel Industry of America’s International Pow Wow 2005 it was imperative for us to provide a flawless transportation system. We were showcasing the city as a premier tourism destination to 5,000 travel professionals who made their living transporting people around the globe. Academy provided their expertise and support every step of the way, from strategic planning sessions to on the ground execution. Our week-long program included seven shuttle routes between 26 host hotels, convention shuttles, sightseeing tours and continuous shuttle service to evening events throughout the city. It was a pleasure to work with the entire Academy team, who gave 100 percent to making our program a success.” -
