AIR CANADA 🇨🇦 has just been named the "Most Family Friendly Airline" at the World Airline Awards.

They are judged on “provision of family seating together, dedicated family check-in facilities, priority boarding, children’s meals, children’s amenities, toys and activity packs, child-specific onboard entertainment, free checked luggage and policies for carrycot/pushchairs, and the standard of service assistance from ground staff and cabin crew during the travel experience”

I might be biased - but I think their new on board Safety Video would definitely make flying with a family a little more magical 🤩

We’re bringing the magic of Disney to our new in-flight safety video. Here’s a sneak peek! Look for the full video on board select flights starting this July.

Watch this space as I edit all my video footage to show you how much fun can be had on a Carnival Cruise.

If there is one thing the last three years has taught us is that time gets away from us so quickly.

Can you believe it is 3 years almost to the day when borders were closed, travel plans were cancelled indefinitely, and we snuggled in to watch Tiger King and make TikToks!

The last few months I have been working on rebooking plans that were cancelled back then - and am looking forward to when you share those photos standing in front of immigration, your seat in the plane and of course the destination itself!

The moral of the story is, time passes in the blink of an eye. Don't wait for the perfect time to travel, start making those dreams come true today ✨

It’s been a journey and a half the ol’ C word… a classic rollercoaster!

While I have been working in travel the whole time, juggling a second job has had its challenges.

It feels so good that the balance is shifting back to being a Personal Travel Manager! I couldn’t be happier! 🎉

And p.s I do know what to do 🤣

I'm not crying... you are

Heroes of the industry: This is a heart warming photo of flight attendant Floyd Dean Shannon on Delta Air Lines service from Charlotte to New York City comforting a passenger who was nervous about flying. He explained every sound and bump and event sat there holding her hand when it still got to be too much for her.

We love hearing stories like this 💕

Hello! And welcome to 2023!

What an exciting year this is to be looking forward to… it’s the first year in 3 years where we have more certainty around travel.

More airlines are adding more flights, more cruises are resuming, more borders are open, and the restrictions are slowly but surely reducing.

And while we are still not quite as those pre-pandemic levels, the sparks are definitely in the air.

I can’t wait to meet more people, hear new exciting plans and make those magical moments come to life.

Let’s meet and talk travel ❤️
