CSI Keeps Campaigns On The Go

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Travel is an integral component of a presidential campaign strategy. That’s why since 1984 candidates have trusted CSI Campaign Travel Services to handle their complex travel requirements.

“A candidate may need to make four or five campaign stops in one day, and the schedule could change at any minute. No matter the circumstances, our job is to make it happen. You couldn’t do that using scheduled airlines, and you certainly wouldn’t want an inexperienced company handling the travel,” said Marc Ramthun, Manager of Operations.

CSI’s past performance includes campaigns for Presidents George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush, as well as Sen. John McCain and Gov. Sarah Palin. Because travel is such a key component in a campaign, CSI assigns an entire team to a candidate.

“When we work with a presidential candidate, we consider ourselves part of the staff. We trust the campaign, and they trust us. We knew Sen. John McCain was going to choose Sarah Palin as his running mate long before the press got word of it because we were the company that arranged her travel. The McCain campaign relied on us to keep this confidential, and we were able to get the job done without anyone knowing,” Ramthun said.

CSI is highly experienced in complex campaign travel, including campaign aircraft planning and on-demand flight schedule changes. Choosing CSI gives candidates access to more airports than commercial airline services. Candidates also get the benefits of flexibility to modify travel schedules and the ability to select the aircraft that best fits their needs.
