Greetings, fellow travelers,
I frequently approached with the following questions:
- Why should I use a travel agent?
- How do you receive compensation?
- Should I buy travel insurance?
Why should I use a travel agent?
While making travel arrangements has become increasingly convenient due to numerous booking websites, the abundance of information and choices can be overwhelming as you research destinations, cruises, and accommodations. Even seasoned travelers can experience planning overload. Working with me as your travel agent can eliminate hours of online research, saving you time and the hassles that can come with planning. Whether you are a couple, a multi-generational family, or a solo traveler, your needs differ from those of the next person. Customized service is at the core of what I provide. I am just as excited about your vacation as you are! I have access to the pricing that you see online, but I also have access to agency-specific special offers and promotions. There are also cruise lines and tour operators that only work with travel agents, so to benefit from that information you would need to work with me to book your vacation.
How do you receive compensation?
I do not charge any fees for planning or booking. The services and information I provide are complimentary. I get paid by the travel partners I work with for booking their products.
Should I buy travel insurance?
Trip Cancellation continues to be one of the main reasons why travelers aren’t able to enjoy the vacation they booked. Whether it involves a brief U.S. escapade or a once-in-a-lifetime journey, unforeseen circumstances could compel you to cancel your trip or depart early. Travel insurance provides essential coverage for most unexpected risks associated with traveling. It is better to have insurance and not need it than to need it and not have it. Travel insurance, even if unused, can provide peace of mind. For frequent travelers undertaking multiple trips annually, annual policies are available for purchase.
As a travel agent, I aim to identify the most suitable options for the vacation experience you seek. I am involved from the initial planning and booking phases, through your vacation, and upon your return home.
