Top 7 Reasons You SHOULD Be Using a Travel Advisor!
A GOOD TRAVEL ADVISOR COSTS YOU NOTHING EXTRA. This is one of the biggest misunderstood facts about using a travel advisor! When you book your vacation package through me, my services do not cost you any more money than you would already be paying for your vacation. And many times, my clients SAVE money by booking with me as I am always watching for special offers and discounts…..offers and discounts that consumers are not always aware exist.
A GOOD TRAVEL ADVISOR SAVES YOU TIME. Let’s be honest - researching and booking a trip can be time consuming. Do you want to spend your time researching hotel bed configurations and capacities, required travel documentation, calling destinations (and often waiting on long holds!) to get answers to questions, booking dining reservations, arranging ground transfers, etc…..or do you simply want to look forward to your trip (and maybe shop for a bathing suit)?
THE TRAVEL INDUSTRY IS CONSTANTLY CHANGING. Think you don’t need a travel advisor because you have sailed on the same cruise ship, traveled to the same all-inclusive resort or visited Walt Disney World in the past? You might want to rethink that thought! Travel regulations, destination policies and offerings change EVERY DAY. A good travel advisor is constantly working (and traveling) to stay current on everything you need to know!
YOU WANT THE MOST OUT OF YOUR VACATION DOLLARS. Travel destinations often have more to do than any person can accomplish in a 5-7 day vacation….and that is a good thing! A good travel advisor knows the “must dos” and the “hidden gems” to ensure your trip highlights the best features offered (and those features most compatible with your interests) at your chosen vacation destination.
A GOOD TRAVEL ADVISOR ADDS A HUMAN ELEMENT TO YOUR PLANNING. Sure, you can book a trip online or with a random call center representative. But, a travel advisor is ONE person you can talk to from the beginning planning stages until the time you return home from your trip. Looking for dining recommendations at your resort, fun ways to celebrate a birthday while traveling or what you need to pack in your carry-on suitcase? These are some of the conversations where a good travel advisor shines! (Good luck asking the call center for that packing list!)
A GOOD TRAVEL ADVISOR IS WORKING FOR YOU, NOT THE DESTINATION. Do you think you will get a more honest and thorough recommendation or answer to a question from a travel advisor working to please you or a representative looking to sell their product? My business grows through referrals, so my #1 priority is making my clients happy. I won’t sell a subpar vacation because I don’t want my clients to have a subpar view of my services. Working for you means my only bias is TO YOU!
A GOOD TRAVEL ADVISOR WORKS AS YOUR ADVOCATE. If recent years have taught us anything, it is that sometimes the unexpected happens. If last minute changes, cancellations or problems arise - I have my client’s back and am there to go to work on their behalf. I am always looking out for you!
