Is this the same as travelling to a location?
I would think ´no´ since the card instructs you to choose a location and make it the active location but wonder if that is the consensus.
Yeah, it doesn't count as traveling to a locations, so it allows you to bypass travel effects. However, it has been errata'd as it now can only be used as a travel action, so you can't use that razzmatazz during the staging step to reduce threat.
This card lost a lot of its playability after the errata, but still can be useful in some decks.

It is more a question of the travel costs in any given encounter deck for me.  If we are having trouble dealing with certain travel costs, dropping this attachment in can really change things around.   But you are right, it doesn't go in everything anymore.   

 

For those wondering, the errata is that it is now a Travel Action, and so can only be used during the Travel Phase.
