Seven Reasons Working With A Travel Agent Will Enhance Your Vacation!

Helping people collect moments is one of my favorite things and I decided to turn my love of planning vacations professional in 2019 when I became a travel advisor.  Traveling is such a recharge and is all about reconnecting–with yourself, your loved ones and making new connections along the way.  As time marches on, I’m really leaning into the idea that the best gifts in life are time together, making memories and experiencing our bucket list destinations! If collecting more moments and less “stuff” fits your style, then we should chat!

As I’ve spent more time in this profession, I’ve realized that there a lot of misconceptions about working with a travel agent. Some people worry that it will add cost to your vacation, while others love to plan and worry about losing control of the process. I’ve had friends not reach out because they don’t want to burden me and others booked on their own not realizing that they could have supported a small business and saved a lot of time researching all the options. I am here to hopefully disprove some of these hesitations by compiling seven of my top reasons why you should book with a Travel Agent!

1. Did you know that almost all destinations, be it an all-inclusive resort, a theme park, cruises, hotels, villas, vacation packages, etc, a travel agent’s compensation is ALREADY built into the pricing? If you aren’t booking through a TA, you’re paying for services you aren’t using. My travel planning help is 100% complimentary to you. I do not charge any planning fees! Travel agents are paid after their clients travel and only if you book your vacation with one.
2. My goal is to find you the best price and I can book through several suppliers to price compare and I keep on top of promotions to save you as much money as possible.
3. I am your personal concierge to call about any questions or special requests you may have. I can help you as much or as little as you prefer. If you are someone who thinks planning is part of the fun, then I can be your wingman and have your back should anything come up during your vacation.
4. I am here to enhance your vacation making sure it’s stress-free. I work with an incredible team of agents and if there is a destination you want to visit that I don’t have personal experience with, I can reach out to my fellow travel agent friends and get all the details for you.
5. For Disney trips, I can help you with resort recommendations, Genie+ overview, dining reservations, touring plans, and hot tips! Time is money on vacation and I know how to navigate Disney Parks.
6. I care about our planet and look for companies and businesses that are doing their part to conserve resources and try and give back to the communities and areas that host them! 
7. I like to give my clients a little bit of vacay pixie dust, so consider working with me on a no-obligation quote! Plus, with the relationships our agency has with a whole range of companies, we can sometimes add in some perks for your vacation like complimentary upgrades and in room gifts. I can book a wide range of options at destinations around the world, everything from hotels, villas and even VRBO!
