Roadside Confidence: Why Every New Driver Needs Alliance Travel’s Assistance Benefits

September 25, 2025

A smiling man in the driver’s seat of a car is receiving keys from a person outside the vehicle. A woman sits beside him, looking at the keys.

For many families, sending a teenager or young adult off to college is accompanied by a mix of excitement and nerves. Along with new classes, dorm life, and independence, many students also bring a car to campus for the first time. That freedom is empowering — but it also comes with new responsibilities and risks. Flat tires, dead batteries, or running out of gas aren’t just inconvenient; they can be intimidating for new drivers who are far from home.

That’s where Alliance Travel delivers peace of mind. With roadside assistance, hotel and car rental discounts, emergency travel services, and access to savings on essentials like Apple products, Alliance Travel helps families know their student is protected both on and off the road.

Roadside Assistance That Puts Parents at Ease

Nothing rattles a new driver faster than being stranded. With Alliance Travel, your student never has to face it alone. Roadside assistance covers:

  • Towing services if the car breaks down.
  • Jump-starts for a dead battery.
  • Flat tire changes, so they don’t have to figure it out on their own.
  • Fuel delivery if they run out of gas.
  • Lockout services if they accidentally leave keys inside the car.

This safety net means students can keep moving while parents breathe easier knowing support is just a click away through the mobile app1.

Affordable Travel for School Breaks

College students love to travel — whether it’s heading home for Thanksgiving, taking a spring break trip, or joining friends on weekend adventures. Alliance Travel makes these trips more affordable with:

  • Discounts on hotels near campus or at vacation destinations.
  • Savings on car rentals, perfect for students who don’t have their own vehicle.
  • Access to global support services through Assist America, so they’re covered wherever their travels take them 2.

For parents, this means fewer worries about travel costs piling up — and for students, it means more freedom to explore without breaking the bank.

Support That Goes Beyond the Road

Alliance Travel isn’t just about emergencies. Membership also provides everyday perks that families love:

  • Discounts on Apple products — a valuable benefit for students who rely on tech for studying and staying connected.
  • Access to Assist America’s global emergency services, including medical evacuation, lost luggage assistance, and emergency travel arrangements.

It’s a complete travel and safety package that supports both short drives around campus and international trips abroad.
