Travel Market Place came in hot on Day 1 ๐Ÿ”ฅ

We kicked things off yesterday with a fantastic keynote from Jon Montgomery, followed by a full day of learning, networking, and connecting with industry partners.

These events are about so much more than travel- theyโ€™re a chance to learn, grow, recharge, and come back with a fresh perspective.

And weโ€™re not done yet! Thereโ€™s lots more happening today before we jet back home to Halifax. ๐ŸŒŽ๐Ÿ’™

Packing. ๐Ÿ˜…โœˆ๏ธ

For someone who helps people plan vacations for a living, youโ€™d think Iโ€™d have mastered the art of packing light by now.

I have not.

Iโ€™m currently trying to pack for a THREE NIGHT trip to Toronto for a travel expo, and somehow my brain is convinced I need enough outfit options to survive a two-week European tour.

People who can travel with just a carry-on amaze me. Genuinely. I donโ€™t understand your powers, but I respect them.

Meanwhile, Iโ€™m over here staring at my suitcase, trying to decide if I really need that extra pair of shoes.

(We all know theyโ€™re coming with me.)

To make matters worse, my colleague Brea Hindy- MacsTravel is all but SHAMING me for considering a checked bag on a three-night trip. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Apparently, this is a perfectly reasonable carry-on-only situation. ๐Ÿซฃ

Apparently, I am the problem.

Please tell me Iโ€™m not aloneโ€ฆ

Are you Team Carry-On or Team โ€œIโ€™d rather pay the baggage fee than make hard decisionsโ€? ๐Ÿ˜‚โœˆ๏ธ

One of my favourite memories from my Mexico FAM trip wasnโ€™t actually a resort tourโ€ฆ it was this dinner at ๐ˆ๐™๐‹๐€ ๐‡๐จ๐ญ๐ž๐ฅ on Isla Mujeres ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝโœจ

The wonderful staff put together an incredible dining experience complete with tequila pairings, tastings, and some absolutely amazing food.

Then this gentleman appeared at the table carrying a cup full of chapulines (toasted, seasoned grasshoppers). ๐Ÿฆ— ๐Ÿ‘€

My belly immediately filed a formal complaint.

A few of the other travel agents in our group didnโ€™t hesitate and gave them a try. Me? I am many things, but an adventurous foodie is ๐’๐’๐’• ๐’๐’๐’† ๐’๐’‡ ๐’•๐’‰๐’†๐’Ž. I respectfully and politely admired them from a safe distance. ๐Ÿ˜‚

So now I need to knowโ€ฆ

When you travel, are you the type who will try ๐’‚๐’๐’š๐’•๐’‰๐’Š๐’๐’ˆ once? Or do you stick to foods you know youโ€™ll enjoy?

โ€œWhenโ€™s the best time to book my vacation?โ€ ๐Ÿค”โœˆ๏ธ

And honestly?

People are usually expecting me to have some secret travel agent formula.

Like maybe thereโ€™s a magical Tuesday at 2:17 PM when prices suddenly drop and the angels sing. ๐Ÿ˜‚

The reality is a lot less exciting.

There isnโ€™t one perfect day to book.

There isnโ€™t a guaranteed โ€œbest sale.โ€

And there definitely isnโ€™t a crystal ball that tells us exactly what pricing will do next.

๐‘พ๐’‰๐’‚๐’• ๐‘ฐ ๐’„๐’‚๐’ ๐’•๐’†๐’๐’ ๐’š๐’๐’– ๐’Š๐’” ๐’•๐’‰๐’Š๐’”:

The biggest advantage of booking early usually isnโ€™t the price.

Itโ€™s the options.

The best flight times disappear first.

The most popular room categories disappear first.

The resorts that offer the best value for the money? Yepโ€ฆ those start filling up too.

In fact, Iโ€™m already booking lots of clients into Spring 2027, and some January 2027 flights are already sold out. ๐Ÿ˜ณ

So if youโ€™re hoping for a Winter 2027 getaway, my advice is simple:

๐ˆ๐Ÿ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎโ€™๐ซ๐ž ๐ฌ๐ž๐ซ๐ข๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ ๐š๐›๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ ๐ญ๐ซ๐š๐ฏ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐š๐ง๐ ๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐š๐›๐ฅ๐ž ๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐๐จ๐ฐ๐ง ๐š ๐๐ž๐ฉ๐จ๐ฌ๐ข๐ญ, ๐ข๐ญโ€™๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ข๐ฆ๐ž ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฌ๐ญ๐š๐ซ๐ญ ๐ฅ๐จ๐จ๐ค๐ข๐ง๐ .

Not because prices are guaranteed to go up tomorrow.

But because waiting rarely gives you more choices.

And personally? Iโ€™d rather help you grab the room, resort, and flights you actually want than try to find a backup plan six months from now. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Nothing says good afternoon quite like an upgrade bid acceptance email. ๐Ÿ˜‚โœˆ๏ธ

My strategy is highly sophisticated:
โœ”๏ธ Bid the minimum
โœ”๏ธ Cross fingers
โœ”๏ธ Manifest aggressively

Somehow, it keeps working.

Who else plays the upgrade bidding game?

You find a great resort.

You find great flights.

You start getting excitedโ€ฆ

Then you realize your โ€œkidsโ€ are suddenly being priced as adults. ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

Not this time.

๐Ÿ’ฐ $8276 total

And the resort itself?

This is one of those places that genuinely works for the whole family.

The beach is beautiful. The pools are huge. The dining options are plentiful. And because guests have access to the entire Palladium complex, thereโ€™s always something going on.

For the teens:
๐ŸŽฎ Teen club
๐Ÿ Sports and activities
๐ŸŒŠ Water park
๐Ÿ–๏ธ Beach days
๐ŸŽญ Nightly entertainment

For the adults:
๐Ÿน Bars and lounges
โ˜€๏ธ Multiple pool areas
๐Ÿฝ๏ธ A wide variety of restaurants
๐ŸŒด Plenty of spots to relax while the kids do their own thing

Honestly, one of the biggest selling features here is that nobody has to compromise. The teenagers arenโ€™t bored, the adults still get a vacation, and everyone gets a week in Punta Cana without spending the entire trip attached at the hip. ๐Ÿ˜†

If youโ€™ve been trying to find that sweet spot between โ€œfamily vacationโ€ and โ€œvacation with teenagers,โ€ this one checks a lot of boxes.

As always, if you need different travel dates, departure cities, family sizes, or room configurations, send me a message and Iโ€™ll happily take a look.
