    Hi,

    Has anyone used or heard of anything about Travel Bug Limited?

    Myself and a few others are going on another J1 and we had a poor experience with USIT last year. So we were looking around and we saw Travel Bug.
    Its €399 and with €500 flights we could get it all in for €900.

    But I've never heard of them before and I could find a better place to put €400!

    Thanks!

    Hey I am going on a J1 myself this year and through all my research I never came across this company......I booked my J1 with SAYIT who were much much cheaper than USIT and so far have been excellent so maybe you could look into it. My J1 with them to New York and LA cost €1,050

    Hey ,
    I was going to USA with travel bug last year. They take care of documentation, visa, orientation, arrival. I found work by myself quite easy, so application process and departure was fluent. I found the price worth it

    Just found this and they have a facebook page the link is on the website, they seem to help people get jobs before they leave which is a good idea..

    Seeing as the US and the the travel sponsors are so strict, I'd say its reasonably legit :)
