Chicago (PRWEB) November 25, 2008 -- A Briggs Passport and Visa Expeditors has opened a new office in Chicago, Illinois, to serve the demands of international travelers needing assistance securing expedited passports and visas in the Chicago Land Metro region. A Briggs has offices in Washington DC, where A Briggs is headquartered, as well as Boston, Charlotte NC, Cincinnati, Houston, Los Angeles, New York, and Seattle. A Briggs works directly with the U.S. Department of State and designated local Passport Agencies, foreign embassies and consulates to secure United States (US) passports and travel visas in as quickly as six hours.
The company's commitment to customer service was lauded twice in the last year in two blind tests conducted by the Wall Street Journal and Travel and Leisure magazine. Both selected A Briggs #1 in their annual survey of passport and visa expeditors. The widely respected traveltruth.com calls A Briggs the "Nation's Top Visa Specialists, handling many members of Washington DC's diplomatic community." A Briggs is the only designated passport and visa provider of the Airlines Reporting Corporation (ARC); ARC clears over $80 billion in airline ticket sales annually.
"Even with the economic slowdown, we are experiencing record demand for our expediting services in the Chicago market and that drove our decision to open a dedicated visa and passport service facility in downtown Chicago" said Porter Briggs, President of A Briggs. "Our corporate, educational and health care customers are still traveling frequently and using our services. The tourist demand, while down generally, is still strong on the high end, especially with all the discounted specials being offered by popular destinations. Also, beginning June 2009, the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) will require everyone to have a passport book, passport card or an enhanced driver's license (as available) to enter or leave the country; this has accelerated the demand."
The new Chicago Passport and Visa Expediter A Briggs Chicago office is conveniently located in Chicago's south loop at 28 E. Jackson Blvd, near local foreign consulate offices and the Chicago Passport Agency. The director of the office is a Chicago native, John Marquez. Marquez is no stranger to International travel, having served in combat on a tank crew in the 24th Infantry Division in Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm. For assistance obtaining a new or replacement passport or a travel visa in Chicago, Mr. Marquez can be reached at 312-372-2337 or by personal visit. Chicago-area passports or visa orders can also be processed securely online through the A Briggs passport and visa expeditor website, at http://www.abriggs.com.
