Frequently Asked Questions

A travel advisor simplifies, elevates, and personalizes your trip. I can help with as much—or as little—as you need.

Want a quick price check to confirm you're getting the best deal? I've got you. Prefer full planning from start to finish? I'll handle it. Need someone to coordinate a group trip so you're not stuck managing payments and room assignments? That's my thing.

Two big ones: time and experience.

I streamline the research, find value and perks, tailor the trip to you, and provide real support if something goes sideways—no endless customer-service hold music. Plus, I genuinely love doing this, so you get someone who's invested in making your trip great.

My services are free to you. I'm paid by the travel suppliers I book through, so you get expert planning, support, and guidance without extra fees.

My goal is simple: save you money and create the best possible travel experience.

Yes—still free. I'm happy to provide recommendations, itinerary ideas, and answers to your questions even if you prefer to handle the booking yourself.

The basics:

• Destination (or a few options you're considering)
• Dates or flexibility
• Number of travelers (and ages for anyone under 18)
• Budget range
• Trip style (relaxation, adventure, family, nightlife, etc.)
• Any must-haves or dealbreakers

The more detail you share, the better I can tailor your trip.

• Cruises: 9–18 months
• All-inclusive resorts: 6–12 months
• Europe: 6–12 months
• U.S. getaways: 2–4 months
• Last-minute: I can help, but availability may be limited

Third-party sites often show low teaser rates that jump with fees at checkout—and if there's a problem, you must resolve it through them.

I provide transparent pricing, direct advocacy, and honest guidance (including telling you when booking direct is actually cheaper). When something goes wrong, you have me in your corner, not a call center.

Yes—when flights are part of your travel package, I can book them for you.

Alternatively, I'll help you pick the best flights, then you book directly for maximum flexibility (and those sweet frequent flyer miles).

Many cruise lines and resorts allow deposits with final payment later, or structured payment plans. I'll walk you through the options that fit your budget.

Absolutely—families, friends' trips, bachelor/bachelorette, reunions, and more.

I organize logistics, rooms, payments, and communications so your group can relax and enjoy. No more group text chaos.

I highly recommend it. Life happens—flights get cancelled, luggage gets lost, emergencies come up.

I'll explain coverage types and help you choose a policy that fits your needs, budget, and peace of mind.

Simple:

• 1. Quick intro call or message
• 2. I learn your preferences
• 3. I research and send curated options
• 4. You choose your favorite
• 5. I book and manage details
• 6. I support you through travel
