PSA if you plan on traveling this year! 🌴☀️

📌If you know you want to travel over spring break or even this summer (March-August) start planning like, yesterday. 📅

📌Pricing is up…everywhere. Including all things travel. What you could get for 3k a few years ago is not available now, think double.... yes, double and sometimes even higher. And unfortunately, I don’t have access to a secret vault with discounted pricing on airfare. 🙃 If you want the best pricing and availability, book EARLY!!

📌”Deals” are harder to come by now. So gambling with time to see if the price comes down may leave you with less-than-ideal options (and/or) increased pricing. Resorts are booked, sold out, thus no need to offer "deals". The better prices are obtained when you book early, I don't want you to pay a penny more for your vacation than you have to!

📌Availability is already low for summer travel. This is not a scare tactic- it’s honest and based on my research for current client requests. The earlier you book, the better the availability at resorts and on cruise ships.

📌This is the busiest season of the year for our industry - so patience on our replies is SO appreciated! I promise I'm not ignoring you! ❤️

📌If you use a travel advisor (even if it’s not me) please, please remember that we only get paid for our time when you book AND travel with us. The pricing and availability I pull for you won't be valid a week from now. The best time for us to look at prices is when you're ready to book!

📌I’m so excited about all of the vacations already planned, and all the new and repeat clients I’ll get to send on their dream trips this year! Seeing happy faces on vacation FB posts makes me happy! 😍

It is because of all of you that we have felt the Pride in what we do and have the energy to keep moving forward.

i would be on a ship in aheartbeat if i could get on one.

CDC Quietly Drops Recommendation for 14-Day Quarantine After Traveling
IMPACTING TRAVEL AUGUST 21, 2020

With travel restrictions part of the new normal thanks to the ongoing coronavirus outbreak, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has changed its recommendations for quarantine.
The CDC previously recommended travelers quarantine for 14 days after visiting overseas destinations or arriving in areas with a high number of confirmed coronavirus cases, but that changed Tuesday.
According to the CDC’s official website, the mandatory quarantine portion of the order has been lifted, with travelers being advised to follow the same protocols people should be following on a daily basis anyway.
The CDC says that regardless of where tourists visit for the remainder of 2020, they should practice social distancing, wear a mask, wash their hands often and monitor for possible symptoms of coronavirus when they return home.
While the CDC said in the updated recommendations that travelers could pose a risk to the community for 14 days after they were unknowingly exposed to the virus, there is no longer an order for a two-week quarantine.
The agency still recommends travelers who visit areas with a high number of COVID-19 cases, attend large gatherings or sail on a cruise ship quarantine for 14 days and get tested for the virus.
Last month, The Bahamian government reversed an earlier decision to ban U.S. travelers, saying it will continue welcoming arrivals from all countries, provided the tourists follow proper health and safety protocols.

Why is everything quiet when there is a good change and everything blown out of proportion when there is negativity

Would you work for 6 months, full time, without getting paid? Think about this for a minute.
If your boss told you to come back to work, but you couldn’t get paid, and you’re not sure when you’re going to get paid again, but to please stick with it and put your heart and soul into it for hopes of a better future?
Chances are, you wouldn’t do it. Unless you have passion, determination, you believe in your partners, you have courage. Our passion drags us across the line, the never give in or give up, fight for our clients line!
Travel Advisors have had their businesses turned completely upside down. They worked for countless hours to plan that trip for you, put it all together, customize every little detail — and they don’t actually get paid their commission until you go on vacation.
Now your vacation got cancelled or you chose to reschedule.
They dive back in to work twice as hard, fielding calls, waiting on hold, fighting for your refunds & credits — all while still not getting paid for any of the work they’ve done for the last 6, 12, or 24 months. Why?
This is more than just their job. This is their passion, their commitment to YOU as their client. Their commitment to the destinations they offer.
Much of the travel industry is on hold, but people are still booking, some are still traveling, and many hopeful travelers are setting their sights well into 2021.
Before you jump online to book that trip to Europe, before you reach out directly to the cruise lines, and before you just start planning that all inclusive vacation through a “cheap” website (you would be SURPRISED - almost always a travel agent will find it for the same price or lower!)— reach out to a Travel Advisor. Refer your friends and family when you hear they’re planning a trip. Help the travel industry rebound by helping those who support it most.
We’re here for you, and we hope you’ll be there for us! And ours is a FREE service - we don't charge ANYTHING for doing it!
We want to thank every friend, family member, business partner, and most importantly, client, who has supported the travel and tourism industry over the years and continue to put their trust in us — especially now!

Don’t plan alone!
