Denise has travelled to 4 Continents and 18 Countries. Her next trip takes her to Ecuador and the Galápagos Islands- checking a fifth continent off her bucket list!

One travel tip Denise likes to share is- ‘when you are at your destination, sit back and take it all in. Vacation goes by so fast, so drink it in and experience the culture, the people and all the uniqueness of every destination.’

How to avoid overpacking for a trip:
1. Don’t pack too far out from your travel date as it will be easy to keep adding to the suitcase.
2. Don’t start packing last minute – panic packing will have your suitcase overflowing!
Ideally when packing for a trip, pull out your suitcase about a week before.

Long Haul flights can be daunting – how do you prepare for a long flight?

A few things our team lives by on the long hauls….

1. Wear noise-canceling headphones.
Not only do these help you to focus on what you are watching or listening to, they cancel out the constant humming of the plane and noise from your fellow travellers. It will make your flight more comfortable and help you to feel more refreshed after a long flight.

2. Bring a travel blanket, not a regular blanket.
Bring a light blanket or better yet a longer cardigan style sweater than can have double usage – a sweater or a blanket. Often the temperature in flight is a bit cool – to relax a nice cozy blanket will make it so much more comfortable.

3. Download movies onto your tablet or laptop for backup.
In flight entertainment systems are GREAT however being prepared with some new shows or favourites downloaded on your personal device is NEVER a bad idea. This will help in the case there is an outage on the inflight entertainment system or if you are having trouble finding something that peaks your interest.

4. Adjust your watch.
When you are travelling through time zones – adjust your watch once you are comfortably in your seat on the airplane. Then try to acclimatize to that time. Even if your time zone it is daytime but your destination time zone is overnight – try to rest and take a nap, get some sleep. The sooner you try to adjust your body to the new time, the better you will feel on arrival.

Meet Peter, one of our knowledgeable Advisors and the longest with Sea Courses. He has been in the travel industry for 24 years and he continues to enjoy this industry as it gives him the ability to see the world! Outside of work, Peter is learning how to be a baseball coach for his son’s team. This summer was the first time, and it was a whirlwind of learning the game and a wonderful way to spend time with his son.
Peter has travelled to 3 continents and 12 countries. Three favourite destinations have been the Galapagos, New Zealand and the island of Maui. For now, his next trip will have him exploring the island of Antigua in 2025!
One travel tip Peter always recommends is, even though taking a screenshot of travel documents is easy to do, consider printing the documents to take with you because you never know when a printout will come in handy.

Pack your patience! Airport Security, even when the line is short can take a good chunk of time.

A few things you can do to make this part of travel easier:
1. Check to see if there is a precheck app or website for the airports you are going to be using.
2. Wear shoes you can easily slip on and off.
3. Pack your carry on knowing where everything is and pack it in order or what you might have to pull out at security.
4. Give your self plenty of time – sometimes the line could be long and other times you might breeze right through.
5. Be kind to the people around you and to the people keeping travellers safe.

Meet Kirsten, our Director of Planning & Development! Kirsten has been with Sea Courses since 2015 and has been privileged to travel around the world with many of you already. Her favourite countries include Iceland and Chile, but a real love for experiencing new places makes it quite hard to narrow down the rest of the list. She has reached all 7 continents and 52 countries so far, and looks forward to future adventures and explorations. Her next trip is a river cruise in France, then the Northern Lights in Finland in the fall. In the office, her role includes contracting future trips and organizing the conference schedules and faculty. Outside of work and travel, she loves to be outside, in the garden and spend time at home with her Greater Swiss Mountain Dog, Riggs. One travel tip she swears by is always packing a few outfits in your carry-on bags, of different styles – something light weight, an extra layer for warmth, a swimsuit and always extra underwear! A quick change at the airport or before you’re able to check into your hotel or ship can really refresh you after long travel – or if your bag doesn’t make it!

How often do you find yourself asking a fellow traveller for a bandaid or an advil? Or even worse, immodium! Today’s travel tip suggests that you pack your own little first aid kit. Essentials like band-aids, pain relievers, antiseptic wipes and polysporin, eye drops, immodium, tums, benadryl and gravol are a great start. Having these on hand can save you time and a hassle if you encounter minor injuries or illnesses during your travels. Also good peace of mind to have!

Meet Linda, she is one of our outstanding Advisors and has been with CME Away ® for 2 years! Outside of work Linda loves to work on her gardens, she says it is a fulfilling activity each spring and summer creating different vibrant and colourful focus areas in the back and front yards. Linda has travelled for 4 continents and 21 countries; she is looking forward to being a Concierge for our ‘Best of Italy & Croatia’ cruise this month! She has never been to these countries and is looking forward to experiencing the authenticity of the locals, their culture, food, wines and the beautiful scenery.
One travel tip Linda likes to share with her clients is that before you start your trip – be sure to contact your credit card company and bank to let them know you’ll be travelling. Nothing worse than having your cards flagged when you start spending money in a different country. You don’t want to find yourself in a foreign country with no access to your bank account or spending opportunities. Also, ask before you go about any foreign transaction fees to avoid any surprises.

Meet Todd, one of our amazing Concierges and you may know him from previously being a Travel Advisor with CME Away ® Todd’s passions are world travel and biking. Living in Vancouver, Todd loves how biking makes the city so accessible – he has never owned a car, and his bike allows him to reach other parts of the city with ease.

Todd is constantly on the move and has lost count of the number of countries he has visited but can confirm he has travelled in all 7 continents. A few stand out destinations for Todd are: Antarctica, The Galapagos Islands, Tahiti, Istanbul, Rome and Singapore.
Todd’s next trip will be on Celebrity Constellation with our Italy & Croatia CME group this August.

One tip from this world traveller is, ‘Travel while you are able to! Too many people leave travel off until later, planning to do more in retirement, but then do not get the chance to, or don’t get to do it with the one they love. There are so many amazing places to see, start early!’

You want to travel this year but you aren’t sure where you want to go??
Consider your interests: if you’re drawn to ancient history and culture, Egypt, Morocco or India might be ideal, whereas if you prefer natural wonders, the Northern Lights of Finland or the beaches of the Caribbean could be more appealing.

There is still time to travel in 2024, and we have space!

It’s inevitable on the days leading up to vacation that your to do list will grow. Time to ask yourself - Can I do this at my destination OR can I buy it at my destination?

Why not take the pressure off and move a few things to do at your destination? Things like, buy toiletries, get any spa service or perhaps complete your currency exchange at the airport!

Meet Patti, she has been in the travel industry for 45 years and after decades of working as a travel advisor, she is now an integral part of our Operations Department. She has travelled to 5 continents and 32 countries and says, ‘Travelling allows us to appreciate how lucky we are to have this privilege and what a wonderful country we live in.’ Patti’s next adventures are quite exciting seeing her travel to the High Canadian Arctic on an expedition cruise, she will be in Italy in September, and on another expedition cruise in Antarctica next January. One thing she dreams of, is to take her husband, kids and their kids on a epic family trip in the future.

All of our staff always have great travel tips to share, and in this case, Patti shares a quote by Mark Twain, “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. So, throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails”
